    I’m not sure I understand how these warrants can take place. It will come from other member states in case any of them travel there?

    Also how is it that Putin has not been arrested yet? Has he avoided those destinations.

    If I misunderstood something or everything, please let me know.

      They can’t make a country arrest it’s own leader.

      But if they travel to any UN country, the country is supposed to arrest them, or coordinate with countries willing to.

      So these are more like an exile than anything.

      Kind of like a sanction but instead of money it’s on personal travel.

      Sanctions are still waaaaaay more effective though and what we should be doing. Money is what these despots care about.

          If the person who beats him wants too…

          And if Netenyahu even lets Israel have elections. Before 10/7 he was already in the process of getting kicked out of office, the only reason he’s still in power is 10/7.

        Wow, whitewashing Iran and Qatar’s role in Hamas’ actions. Very progressive left of you.

            I’m interested in sticking to the facts. If you aren’t, that’s fine. I can block and move on with my day.

                If it is a fact that Israel is paying for Hamas and Iran and Qatar aren’t, it will be very easy for you to prove that.

                I will wait.

                  https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/netanyahu-israel-gaza-hamas-1.7010035

                  Oh nooo, did someone open their fucking mouth about shit they don’t know about and are about to get dunked on?

                  “Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu defended Israel’s regular allowing of Qatari funds to be transferred into Gaza, saying it is part of a broader strategy to keep Hamas and the Palestinian Authority separate, a source in Monday’s Likud faction meeting said,” the Post reported.

                  Netanyahu’s current finance minister, West Bank settler Belazel Smotrich, explained the approach to Israel’s Knesset channel in 2015: “Hamas is an asset, and (Palestinian Authority leader) Abu Mazen (Mahmoud Abbas) is a burden.”

                  “Both Egypt and Qatar are angry with Hamas and planned to cut ties with them. Suddenly Netanyahu appears as the defender of Hamas,” the right-wing leader complained.

                  A year later, Netanyahu was further embarrassed when photos of suitcases full of cash going to Hamas became public. Liberman finally resigned in protest over Netanyahu’s Hamas policy which, he said, marked “the first time Israel is funding terrorism against itself.”

    Biden can’t save him, because we wouldn’t agree to the Rome act because we thought that somehow meant we couldn’t be charged at the Hauge for our war crimes. That’s not true tho, we don’t have to agree to it.

    Israel and the United States are not members of the ICC. However, the ICC claims to have jurisdiction over Gaza, East Jerusalem and the West Bank after Palestinian leaders formally agreed to be bound by the court’s founding principles in 2015.
