Even Joe Biden called the recent decision by the International Court of Justice to issue arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israel’s former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant — for supposed “crimes against humanity” and “war crimes” — “outrageous.” And Republicans in Congress are even more furious. The Senate Majority Leader-elect, John Thune […]
An Action Plan Against the ICC
The International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.

Those Who Denounce the ICC Decision
The International Criminal Court (ICC) has now issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.

US and Israel Condemn ICC For Requesting Arrest Warrants For Netanyahu, Gallant
It is, of course, preposterous and disgusting for the International Criminal Court (ICC) to treat Netanyahu and Gallant the same as arch-terrorists Yahya Sinwar and Mohammed Deif.
