Israel’s Channel 12 revealed that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fears that the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague will issue orders to arrest him and other officials due to violations in the war on Gaza.

The channel revealed that an urgent discussion took place on Tuesday at the Prime Minister’s Office that has remained confidential until now, in which worrying scenarios and serious concerns emerged that would allow the issuance of international arrest warrants from ICC in The Hague against senior Israeli officials, security leaders and politicians, including Netanyahu himself.

It reported that the highest political and legal elite in Israel were present at the discussion. The Israeli channel noted that the reason for issuing international arrest warrants was the war in Gaza.

    It’s entirely possible that while Biden continues to support Israel he’s pulling his support of Netanyahu. The two are not the same thing, much as Bibi may wish it.

      Imagine the situation where US gives Palestinians a ton of weapons while not supporting Hamas.

        Are you a troll, or here to sow propaganda? I feel like this person is making really good points, and you are just openly ignoring them.

          OK, let me give you another analogy. US didn’t “agree” with Sadam at certain point in time. Did they arm Iraq while not supporting Sadam? The point is, US is supporting Netanyahu with providing all the toys for his genocide. Saying that they don’t support Netanyahu and at the same time providing all the support is funny.
