    If he’s so upset about being compared to mass murderers he should have not murdered people en masse. It’s actually very easy to not do that

      I have, completely by accident and with no significant effort on my part, gone 40 years without mass murdering. It almost just happens on its own.

    To avoid that label, he could, like… not mass murder the people of Gaza.

    Yes, I wonder why they could have compared you to mass murderers".

    In a bitter personal attack, Mr Netanyahu said Karim Khan, the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC) was one of the “great antisemites in modern times.”

    I’ve checked the ICC most wanted list. It’s here: https://www.icc-cpi.int/defendants

    It’s almost all African warlords. Not a big Jewish demographic, if I’m honest. If the leader of Israel can describe the ICC as antisemites, the word literally has no meaning any more.

      At this point, if you don’t support the genocide and forceful taking of land in Gaza, you’re antisemitic.

        I just wanted to say that Palestinians and their Canaanite ancestors are Semites as well. So, if we take the phrase antisemitic literally, then the current Israeli government is also antisemitic.

        Israel has also stolen parts of Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, and historically Egypt. Their extremist ministers, who are currently in political control of the entity, are calling for stealing more of southern Lebanon too. There’s no reason to believe Israel will stop their genocide when the last Palestinian is murdered.

      More people need to watch the interviews with former IDF soldiers. They openly talk about doing things to Palestinians in West Bank that are war crimes. They also say they do these things routinely. Even the arrest policy is a war crime because they aren’t turned over to the PA, they have to go in front of an Israeli court. If they go in front of a court at all, instead of being indefinitely detained.

        There’s that documentary with the old timer IDF members laughing about slaughtering people and raping young girls during the Nakba.

        When we see these kinds of people act on their inclinations in society, whether it be they chop up their wife or kill a bunch of kids at a daycare, people react with horror. They do it as part of their time in the military and a lot of people just accept it. Same sociopaths doing the same horrible stuff though either way you cut it.

      No. They would never drag him there but they won’t mind trying him in absentia at some point.

        No. The ICC never tries anyone in absentia. His arrest warrant, if approved, will stand for all time until he either dies or is arrested. There is no statute of limitations for any ICC charges. This means he is effectively barred from visiting any party to the Rome Statute (124 countries).

        It also means he could potentially be arrested in Israel and handed over to the ICC if he loses an election and the new government wants to get rid of him.
