No 10 is said to have been on alert for more than a week about an imminent statement from the ICC that its pre-trial chamber judges have accepted the request of the ICC prosecutor, Karim Khan, to issue arrest warrants for war crimes committed in Gaza.
The request for arrest warrants was issued on 20 May against Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant, the defence minister, as well as three Hamas leaders, including Yawar Sinwar and Ismail Haniyeh, the now-deceased head of the Hamas political bureau.
Welp, looks like all the “what about Hamas?” People are going to need a new excuse.
Yup. It’s great that the charges are unbiased. Unfortunately, Palestine is a member of the ICC, while Israel is not. The US needs to hold Israel accountable.

The U.S. is not part of the ICC.
That’s what I’m saying. The US needs to hold Israel accountable. The ICC has no jurisdiction over Israel or the US.
