1. This should be interesting to watch how the UK, US, Europe all react. Who's going to protest, who's going to allow international laws to actually work and apply?

2. lol he can keep dreaming, never going to happen 😉

3. "Alleged" war crimes?? Seriously😑What kind of pathetic excuse of journalism is this

4. Really??? A Islamist who hates Jews and Israel condemning Israel… Is This a Joke? 😅😅😅

5. at least ICC will issue a paper warrant.

6. how about putin, mr icc

7. Israel doesn't recognize the jurisdiction of the ICC. Neither does the the US, among others.

8. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

9. What about Biden? most of the weapons used in this genocide were from the US and UK. So Biden, Blinken, and Sunak also should be included.

10. Yes yes

11. But who catch Netanyahu?!

12. Israel won’t hand over any of the men even if warrants are issued for their arrests.

    But it will make things extremely difficult for Netanyahu and his government to function. He can’t travel abroad or meet heads of states whose countries have signed up to the Rome Statute. He will become a pariah, and by extension, drag Israel down with him.

    His coalition will almost certainly collapse and new elections will lead to a defeat for Likud.

    A legal can of worms will open which will lead to a continuation of legal proceedings against Netanyahu in a Jerusalem courtroom where he is already facing charges for corruption and influence peddling. Netanyahu might not end up in The Hague, but a Jerusalem jail beckons.

13. Only in detective film we can see to catch criminals. But Netanyahu like leaders how catch who catch?!

14. Yeah, who gonna catch them and even they catch them,.where they gonna put them??

15. How Hamas are responsible. Is self defence is crime!!!!
    Please review the decisions of IJC for Hamas.

16. You are dreaming you cannot jailed Netanyahu try to go to Israel so that you will what are you looking for

17. That three living in happy throwing Gaza people before Israel. All wise people know Israel leaders attacking. So far Israel leaders never fear any Court

18. Throw him to jail

19. Putin: Welcome to the club comrades. Welcome.

20. The icc is a joke

21. Great News! Netanyahu is now in the same war criminal club as Putin 😂

22. Back to school for Karim Ahmad Khan, 4th Geneva Convention 1949, art. 23 a,b,c. Israel have performed far better. Perhaps ICC should have some military competence as well?

23. President Biden, prime minister Sunak and chancellor Scholz should be added to the list

24. Biden to

25. Took them almost 8 months to issue warrants against Hamas leaders ?? (And not even all of them).
    If they’d have done it earlier, this war would have been over by now and the hostages returned..
    just because of the ICJ , the ICC decided to “join the party” against Israel and against the release of the hostages.

    Hamas and Islamic jihad, invaded, massacred, tortured, raped and abducted by the thousands.. the ICC and ICJ did nothing… for almost eight whole months!!

    Doesn’t matter how much you dislike Netanyahu or hate this war but to try to equate the actions of protecting one’s citizens and the attempt to release other with the attackers , is inhumane and that is exactly what we again see in the UN. The complete indifference to human life .

    These warrants are meant for Israel not Hamas since they will never be caught or even attempted to be caught by the ICC

26. now watch how the ICC becomes illegitimate to all those european hypocrites…

27. Congressman Jared Moskowitz said Gaza should be turned into a "parking lot". Former member of Congress Michelle Bachman said the people of Gaza should be removed, and then Gaza should be turned into a "park". Jared Kushner has discussed the "development" of the "waterfront" property in Gaza. Are these "genocidal" statements? If the roles were reversed and the current residents of Gaza were Orthodox Jews, would these statements be considered as "genocidal"?
    
    Go to Gaza City and spend some time with Christian Brothers and Sisters in Christ, if you want to understand what it means to be threatened. Why were two unarmed Christian women shot by Israeli snipers while going to the toilet at their church in Gaza? Why were Christians killed while they were taking shelter at their 800-year-old church in Gaza City, when an IDF bomb hit beside their church? How many of their homes have been turned to rubble? How would you feel if armed drones were constantly flying overhead, while you are without food? Why was Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu-Akieh shot by the IDF before October 7th? These people were not killed by Hamas. Why have these people been ignored by most Christians in the U.S.? Are the Christians being killed in Gaza “Semites”? ….

28. Yes finally!! Why did it take this long??

29. Biden behind this😢election coming😢

30. An empty threat … Israel is obviously above the law with their big kid brother (The US)

31. Lock him down!

32. i supports this motion. now its up to the rest of the world leaders who arent part of the U.S geopolitical faction to get behind this, and provide SAFETY for the ICC to do their job.
    this could at least brings a ruling to completely HALT the military operation currently on going in rafah/gaza. and put the right direction for the "dynamic" to push FOR CHANGE in judea.
    the culprits need to be hold accountable.

33. 😮😮😮Can someone please explain to me again why no European nation including the US wanted these people in their country before during and after WWII????? What did they know that we are now finding out???? 🤔

34. Great news. Zionism is finally coming to an end.

35. And as soon as the arrest warrant is issued against Israel or its people all aid for Ukraine should be immediately stopped.
    
    Let the EU pay and fund it all. This should be made very plain to the Europeans who have dragged us into 2 world wars.
    
    Trump was right again

    What are they going to do next try to arrest the U.S. President ?

36. Ok. How about Biden, Sunak, Macron and the German chancellor ?

37. Arrest xi jingping

38. You made dispute between them by Ismaeel Haniya.Ismaeel Haniya is a innocent person.

39. Itbis wisely crafted the prosecutor included Hamas leaders in his warrant yet knowing that the crimes he is accusing them of are no provably. The court will dismiss them but those of Netanyahu are to obvious. He even tried to clean himself by citing 3 Hamas and 2 israelis trying to save his face he is afraid that that what is happening in Palestine can happen to him.he knows that he is dealing with real criminals

40. look at the state of these 3 clowns

41. France should approach the ICC and declare that if the ICC drops the extermination charge (extermination charge is excessive and it is not extermination) then France will send in a team to extract Netanyahu and deliver him to the ICC for prosecution.

42. Israel will claim the ICC are being Auntysemetic 😂

43. The ICC can choose to fulfill the destiny indicated by its name “international “ or devolve by whims of bad actors into the Western Criminal Court while watching its influence shrink to zero before the rest of the world. The crimes before it are no less sickening as before judged and even less so as others so judged. The world is watching, their time is now.

44. Yeah yeah. You say you not same as your enemy and you do nothing wrong. Trouble is when victim stand up and open fight with their bully they both get attention. That the world you living in so deal with it.
