"Not only is [Israel] committing war crimes & likely genocide..they use their spy chief to threaten to hurt family members of ICC prosecutors."

~Trita Parsi

"Israeli intelligence chief spent close to a decade attempting to intimidate the ICC's prosecutor into halting a war crimes probe", saying, "You don't want to be getting into things that could compromise your security or that of your family."

"Surveillance & interference: Israel’s covert war on the ICC exposed"

"Top Israeli government & security officials have overseen a nine-year surveillance operation targeting the ICC & Palestinian rights groups to try to thwart a war crimes probe."

The "multi-agency operation.. routinely surveils the court’s current chief prosecutor Karim Khan, his predecessor Fatou Bensouda, & dozens of other ICC & UN officials."

Analysis

"The ICC was built for Africa & for thugs like Putin... not for western & west-backed leaders", a senior US politician told ICC prosecutor Karim Khan.

This is the first time the ICC has sought to prosecute senior officials from a US ally.

Republicans earlier told Khan, if he applied for warrants against Israeli leaders, he would be barred from the US.

Potentally, also, the US could pressure the PA to stop cooperating with the ICC.

Interview

"The record of the ICC is so horrendous, it used to be called the International Caucasian Court, because it only indicted African leaders.

"I would say the pressure became probably unbearable [on Karim Khan] & he lost all credibility. It would have been very hard for Karim Khan - who was being mocked for the past 6 months for doing nothing - to stay silent."

#Biden / USA and #RushiSunak / UK are complicit in the mass killing of refugees overnight in #Gaza, and in much else.

They have offered #Netanyahu a protective shield against the #ICC and so his war crimes and #genocide continue.

This is also on you #DavidCameron, and your silence #KeirStarmer is shameful and racist.

#Israel


'After their dismissal of the ICC and ICJ calls on Israel to comply with international law, how can the US and its partners make a convincing case again that their rules are fair and universal, and so must be followed by all? It is brazenly clear that the rules-based order is not about democratic values, the rule of law and the sanctity of human lives, but the observance of a global hierarchy in which some lives are sacred and others are not.' #ICC #israel #hamas #justice https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/article/2024/may/27/icc-israel-benjamin-netanyahu-arrest-warrant-us-west

“Despite efforts by #Biden and Congressional leaders to assert that the #ICC has some kind of anti-#Israel bias, nearly every leader ever prosecuted by the ICC prior to 2023 has been African, including presidents of Liberia, Libya and Sudan. #Netanyahu and Gallant would be the first US-allied leaders ever indicted by the ICC.

It appears, then, that in Washington’s view, international humanitarian law should only apply to leaders not supported by the #UnitedStates

North Korea threatens “International Criminal Court (ICC) chief prosecutor Karim Khan, warning him not to issue international arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other Israeli officials, and threatening him with ‘severe sanctions’… ‘Target Israel and we will target you … You have been warned.’”

Did I say North Korea? Silly me! I meant twelve republican US senators 🙊

Seriously? If they’re held accountable for their #warCrimes israel is going to throw a tantrum at another government? And the US getting involved, possibly threatening the ICC if they do the right thing?
