Benjamin Netanyahu is crying wolf harder than ever as the ICC are now antisemitic for issuing a warrant for his arrest! Right, so yesterday it finally happened, after months of waiting, legal hold ups and even threats against the court itself, the International Criminal Court finally issued arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu, his former Defence Secretary Yoav Gallant, and the Hamas leader Mohammed Dief, for crimes against humanity, for committing war crimes.
They are now wanted men, and where it is unknown right now if Dief is still even alive, the two other Hamas leaders originally named by the ICC in relation to potential arrest warrants certainly are not, Netanyahu and Gallant most certainly are and are furious in the least surprising manner they could be. For some this news will be greeted with hope and optimism that these men will be arrested, for others they may be looking at this and shrugging their shoulders thinking as if that is ever going to happen, but in both cases will be missing the bigger issue that these warrants demonstrate, of the real damage to the Israeli government’s reputation and you only need look at some of the reactions around the world to this news as well, to realise that this does matter, just not necessarily in the way you might think it does.
