‘This is an attack on our rights’, Israel hits back on International Criminal Court order – Israel hits back International Criminal Court order This an attack on our rights ntc
The International Criminal Court (ICC) has issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Galant for war and crimes against humanity. Israel’s reaction to this has come to the fore. Israel said this is a dark moment for the Hague-based International Criminal Court, which undermines its legitimacy.
Israel said that the ICC is acting as a political tool for the most extremist elements working against peace, security and stability in West Asia. The ICC acted without authority against the elected leaders of a democracy who are not members of the court. This is a dangerous example.
Israel said in its statement that these warrants are not only directed against our leaders personally, but are an attack on Israel’s right to defend itself. This decision weakens the prospects of reaching a hostage agreement or a ceasefire and helps those who are openly demanding the destruction of Israel.
Israel said that this decision is a moral flaw, which turns good into bad and protects evil. This decision harms democracy’s ability to fight terrorism.
Israel said that as a democracy, Israel has a strong legal system that is strong, capable and willing to investigate the actions of its government. We call on all our friends to publicly reject this injustice.
Let us tell you that the ICC has accused Netanyahu and Gallant of crimes against humanity, in which murder, torture and inhuman acts have been said. There are allegations that Israel has restricted essential supplies such as food, water and medical aid to civilians in Gaza, leading to the death of children and distress to many people.
