Germany is complicit in aiding this genocide.
By that definition Egypt is guilty for trapping the Palestinians inside Gaza.
And America!
How?
Is this "genocide" in the room with us now?
@@flost8202 by supplying weapons even after concerns about about plausible genocide had been raised by the ICJ and the report by Francesca Albanese that stated there were reasonable grounds to believe that the threshold indicating the commission of genocide had been met. It's even worse for Germany that that report was made even before the mass graves were found showing signs people had been buried alive, the systematic murder of WCK workers, international press had been kicked out and more.
Germany must stop supplying this monster with weapons for Genocide
No
Why tho?
@@flost8202 Because the Israelis do their best impression of Germany from 80 years ago.
@univeropa3363 no they don't. Where are the death camps? The rapes the killing of civilians and so on?
Netanyahu & Gallant should rot in jail.
ICC must have evidences to prove it, so before it, every singgle one must respect their rights based on the principle of law, presumption of innocent
@@SorminaErianaAny decent, normal human being that has internet connection will have seen in the past 7mths alone, the atrocious war crimes captured on video.
Easily available on youtube as well. So if an average joe like me has almost seen it all, I dont see why the judges, which im sure will be presented with all the evidences, will have issues.

There's principle of law had adopted by ICC " Nullum dilictum nulla poena sine praveie lege poenali"
Arrest George Bush too, After 9/11 we did the same thing. Americans injected emotions into a situation that already had too much rather than using logic. But non-the-less we were deployed into a war zone. And lets not forget Pearl Harbor! The collateral damage on dropping two nukes on civilian populations. 🤔🤨The level of hypocrisy is overwhelming on this thread. Just my thoughts - Semper Fidelis🇺🇸
No one is above the law!
Of course, but there's the general principle of law, equality before the law
This should not have come as a surprise.
Back in February 2024: "More than 800 officials from the United States and Europe have signed a scathing criticism of Western policy towards Israel and Gaza, accusing their governments of possible complicity in war crimes."
This isn't new news, this is a long time coming.

The French Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement on the evening of May 20, stating that "France supports the International Criminal Court and its independence and supports the fight against impunity under all circumstances."
The statement also said that France has been warning for months about the need to strictly abide by international humanitarian law, "especially in the Gaza Strip, where the number of civilian casualties is unacceptable and humanitarian aid is lacking."
It is rare, but France occasionally does the right thing....like opposing the Iraq war🤔
@@dawg929 Germany did that too, sadly germany is a bit slow on stopping the support for israel -_- .

You're right: that's the way they have always acted.
Gaza now has the right to say never again. Sorry Israel your leadership traded it away
funny to see, some? people are very angry just because ICC is doing it's job..
Netanyahu has been committing war crimes against Palestinians for decades under the protection of the US/Britain Vempires 😂
The International Criminal Court (ICC) doesn't have its own police force or prison system to detain individuals. However, it can issue arrest warrants for individuals accused of crimes within its jurisdiction, and it relies on member states to enforce these warrants and carry out arrests. If a person is arrested and brought before the ICC, the court can then hold trials and, if found guilty, impose sentences, which could include imprisonment. So, while the ICC itself doesn't directly put individuals behind bars, it can play a significant role in the prosecution and punishment of those responsible for serious international crimes.
but only if you're part of their club. otherwise it equals to B.S
@@Marine_0317it is no bs. This is not a common grifter but a head of state who can be arrested if he moves into any country. That’s a huge huge embarrassment for the country and previously only African leaders were issued this but now shamefully a so called democratic nations head of state is now embarrassed. A responsible leader would have resigned out of respect
The other high international court, the ICJ also provided the UK with a list of British citizens who commited war crimes in Gaza. Conveniently, the local police and judiciary decided to ignore that.... one of these individuals on that list was the soldier who had a viral video, where he went through the underwear drawer of a woman who was forced out of her home.
I personally believe that some EU countries like Spain or Ireland will respect the ICJ decisions and warrents, others.... like Germany or the UK will probably ignore it....
@@hakanozaslan9571 the ICJ does not go after "individuals"
While both the ICC and the ICJ are international judicial bodies located in The Hague, they serve different functions: the ICC prosecutes individuals for international crimes, while the ICJ settles disputes between states and provides advisory opinions on legal questions.
@@Marine_0317 Palestine is in the club
Lock him up Lock him up Lock him up
yes lock up Sinwar and Deif.
easier said than done.
The suggestion that he should have announced the request for arrest warrants on different days is absurd. Can you imagine the outrage if he had asked for arrests of only one of the groups involved? Half of the world would have exploded in indignation. And then doing it later for the other group would have only made it look that he's adding them just as a response to the outcry. Ridiculous stuff!
If there is no comparison then it’s unexplained how Khan only tried to prosecute Hamas members now when their crimes are clear from October 7th.
There Hamas warrants were issued now just for political purposes , it’s obvious which makes entirely political.
Russia haven't done half of what Israel has done in GAZA and yet you had a warrant aganist Putin , talk about the double standards🚮😂
You should go fight for Putin.
Also the estimated civilian deaths in Mariupol is a minimum of 30k dead...so...yeah ruzzia has the gold medal still
Also, it took an entire year of ruzzian atrocities to get an arrest warrant for Putin and only 7 months for Israels crimes in Gaza, if anything Gaza got special treatment, or the ICC took a while to spin up.
Eventually prosecutor is making a hash of the ICC. If Israel is put in the same category as hamas, then other countries facing terrorist threat will be on the defensive and terrorist emboldened. Which country will like to get its sovereignty curtailed in matters on national defense and security of its citizens.
Will Germany ban the ICC prosecutor also? Will Germany call him antisemitic??
you should also ask: "Is there enough evidence for an arrest warrant against Putin?"
There already is an arrest warrant against Putin for Russias crimes in Ukraine
Yes there is
There is even more evidence against Netanyahu.
@@flost8202where? Where is Russia commuting genocide in Ukraine?
@lilacer6841 hm maybe the time they literally stole children and took them away? Ot the fact that they deny the existence of the ukrainian people and are waging war to destroy the ukrainian identity? That both is genocide.
Either the law applies to all equally or it might as well apply to none. There is no justice when justice is meted or denied at the whims of empires.
Incorrect. Icc applies when one of the parties involved is part of the agreement/statute
Just still seeking, not arresting yet!
Arrest warrant should be for Joe Beden He is the main big support for Israel
Congratulation to the ICC
International Community: "You can't possibly erode all your credibility in one move"
ICC: "Hold my beer"
Playing the victim
When they say a country defending itself against terrorism, who are you referring to? Israel or Palestine?
nice try. Look up historical facts. Palestinians have been attacking Israel for 75 years.
Exactly. War criminals on both sides of that divide.
@@k0mm4nd3r_k3n One 10000 times worse
@user-qq6rr2je4q there's only one country there, and it's Israel.
About time ICC take action
Love this ruling, NuttyYahoo should be in jail right now but one thing for sure this has really got under his skin 😂
What ruling? Can you pay attention? They’re seeking warrants, not sure if you even understand what that means. , there is no ruling
"The State of Palestine joined the ICC in April 2015 and granted the ICC jurisdiction over crimes committed in its territory since June 13, 2014. This includes the Gaza Strip. As such, individuals from Gaza, as part of the State of Palestine, fall under the jurisdiction of the ICC for crimes committed within its mandate." - ICC
There is no "State of Palestine", no way for them to "ratify" their inclusion into the ICC as required. I don't see any case standing up under that circumstance. Israel did not act against this so-called "State" which never ratified inclusion in the ICC, they went after a terror group, Hamas.
Right!!! I hope they have more qualified guests to discuss this as time goes on because I also don’t understand how this is legal/can stand
@user-qq6rr2je4q Hucka-lucka Jawa, 🤡🤡
Until I see arrest warrant for Congo Sudan Biafra genocide, this are all hypocrisy for me
Not to mention the leaders responsible for the sieges of Mosul and Raqqa during the war against ISIS. And why wasn’t Vladimir Putin indicted for the siege of Mariupol, despite the ICC already running a process against him? The exact same methods of war is applied, with thousands of dead as a result, but for some reason the ICC only goes after Israel.
It’s really odd the priorities of the ICC prosecution.
I understand your concern about the Congo Sudan Biafra genocide.
But my country, the USA, is not actively enabling, actively supporting, actively aiding, and actively abetting the Congo Sudan Biafra genocide.
A very close ally of my country, the USA, is not carrying out the Congo Sudan Biafra genocide.
So, I am very concerned and genocide being carried out anywhere... but when it is my country directly involved through a very close ally to my country, so that my country is directly actively enabling, actively supporting, actively aiding, and actively abetting genocide... that makes it much more important to me, makes it much more my responsibility to stand up and say and do things to oppose that genocide.
@@MusingsFromTheJohn00 Remember that injustice anywhere is a treat to justice anywhere. There line between what is direct and indirect is blurred and 99.9 percent the same. If we are sincere about humanity then all men are the same
@@henryebube3576 , it is not realistic to expect the same level of reaction from everyone for a situation where (1) something is closely related to them versus (2) something is very remote from them.
Now, idealistically all people, not just men, but women, boys, girls, people of different ethnicities, people of different religions, people of different economic classes, people of different political beliefs, etc.; all should be treated equally. In real life this does not work and in fact would cause a massive collapse of our species if truly actually implemented as many deeply concerned but shallow thinking idealist want it to be. This is why true Communism is a fictional fantasy.
Now, in my country I have a small tiny bit of influence over what happens inside my country. My country is in extreme crisis with not just a single crisis, but dozens and dozens of overlapping crises.
I have zero influence over today's Democratic Republic of the Congo.
I have zero influence over today's Republic of the Sudan.
I have zero influence over the Republic of Biafra, which as far as I know does not even exist today.
Lindsey Graham said the same thing.
Asking former prosecutors and judges of the ICC, if that action by the ICC is appropriate is a joke. They may be a little bit biased.
Why don’t you ask another question : Sinwar behind the bars?
It's an opportunity to clear your name if you are truly innocent, unless you are certain you are guilty.
I was thinking the same yeah
Your news channel is the 2nd Aljazeera, i can tell from how you report about Israel.

The figures in the camps during ww2 have also been revised several times. 😅
@@CanadianForPutin and the Soviet WWII death toll - many of which were Ukrainian. Go fight for Putin instead of in the CZcams comments.
You mean the one where the total number was still higher but there was a lower number mentioned somewhere because they now made a distinction between fully identified vs not yet identified casulties?
Add Biden Blinken Scholz Sunak Cameron to list for arrests
He doesn’t have enough guts to issue a warrant for Netanyahu alone; he has to also issue warrants for Hamas leaders even though the differences in their crimes are so stark.
The US must recognize the ICC! 🇺🇸
Hard pass.
They had a chance and rejected it very firmly.
While the ICC has not yet recognized Palestine as a sovereign state or a full member, it has accepted Palestine's jurisdiction and conducted preliminary examinations related to alleged war crimes in the occupied Palestinian territory ³. The situation remains complex, but the ICC continues to engage with the State of Palestine in its efforts to address accountability for crimes committed in the region.
This is the part which I don’t understand. Was hoping they’d touch on that in this video. I don’t understand how that’s possible if they’re not yet a state (and also why do they keep referring to them as a state if they aren’t recognized as one yet).
@@mashkanyc ICC accepted an application, although I did not find out exactly from whom, and included them in ICC membership. That's a fact, but still very complicated when it comes to a case brought against any Israeli in Gaza or the West Bank. However, it cuts both ways, if upheld, then the ICC has jurisdiction over any acts by individuals, including those by Hamas and Palestinians.
Absolutely seething about the fact the majority of humans believe Isreali war criminals should be prosecuted. 😅
@@nuqwestr It think the application was by the PA so the West Bank and east Jerusalem are also covered
@@benik3297 Yes, I read the full description and the West Bank and East Jerusalem was included, but nowhere does it say it was the PA, so can only assume. In any case, a bit sketchy from a legal standpoint.
Why is the chief prosecutor wearing a Patek Philippe Nautilus, a 30K-100K watch depending on the model, is the real question here.
The UN has been part of some very questionable actions and debates lately.
It seems all those 3. World guys on the UN and ICC are running things in their own, shady, way.
Just like the Arrest Warrant for Putin, nothing will happen.
Putin doesnt travel to the West...
What already happens is that Putin cannot go to 124 countries in the world who are signatories of ICC. Same will be with Netanyahu and Hamas-leaders. If they would go to one of these countries they would be arrested. That is not "nothing".

Why there is no the same case against Putin, Shoigu and Patrushev if „people were tried for less“ ?????

well I find it surprising that the interviewer has the guts to ask about syria and iran without mentioning about Libya where the US went in and massacred lots of Libyans without a UN mandate and doing the same in Iraq or Afghanistan. How hypocritical on her part to ask questions about Syria when we have evidence and witnesses from the West about what the US did in Libya, Iraq and Afghanistan. On that note, senator Graham mentioned that he wanted to sanction ICC to make sure US soldiers who commit war crimes are not dragged in front of ICC !!!!
Crocodile denied eating humans

Videos don't lie. Then you have people who present you a truth which is the alternative truth which means all done in the defence of Israel. Defence from who? Babies, those who are weeks old? Nah!

Good clarifications
Why International criminal court is sleeping until now
The crime minister will evade, evade, evade and evade, and live in sunny California, the good life, til the end of his days, scott free sippin margaritas.
This arrest warrant will end up being a joke, esp when the ones who protect him (US/UK) will do whatever it takes, to not let him be captured and embarrassed.
Bind Benjamin Netanyahu now
ICC favours the West. Let's hope the ICC is not just playing on the minds of the world to save face for a biased approach regarding international law.
The question is will ICC really do the job of delivering justice to the victims, the Palestine people or it's just for TV shows and wound licking strategy? ICC had no other choices but to issue arrest warrants... The alleged war crimes activities of Netanyahu , defense Minister and the Israel IDF are too obvious with evidence on every Media platform and even homes. Let's hope justice will be done ...the world awaits for justice to prevail though the heavens may fall, let justice prevail..
The world now awaits to see what ICC will do for justice to prevail for the people of Palestine, though the heavens may fall, let justice prevail.. the whole notion of the rules based world is on trial and so far the USA and Israel have already shown that there's nothing like international law... international law is applied selectively to favour the USA and their allies..
what more evidence is needed?
There more than enough evident,one is more than enough.
Hostages have not been released. So what does the ICC expect nations to do when attacked or when citizens are under threat or taken Hostages. What is fair conduct of war and what is not. Who decides? Should armies have refrees with them. Who could qualify as referees. ICC should first issue habeas corpus for hostages release.
Answers to your questions:
- the ICC expects that they follow the law
- conduct should be in compliance with international humanitarian law
- yes armies should have referees/legal council and all (combat) personel should be carefully instructed before they are deployed
What a joke
How about the Hamas leaders?
How many thousands of hours of tiktok videos exist on the internet for anyone to see?
Yes there is plain as day. He should be placed on trial with hamas leader and galant.
Hey, Karim Khan, leaders of the "free world" are mad at you because you are going to prosecute HAMAS and Israel together, can you drop your charges against HAMAS for the time being?
Israel can deal with the ICJ and ICC. I think if they go through with it, that will be the end of the ICJ and ICC.
And with the end of the ICJ and the ICC, it will also be the end of human rights and the high grounds of morality of democracies in the west.
This is the only way to stop the violence have both parties are sated for crimes against humanity no one is above the law and no matter your religion or place of birth. Accountability is the key to end this fued
Crooked voice 😖 Thanks for the subs. Not buying that equivalence between Israel and Hamas was implied just because they announced those warrant requests together. The fact that both sides are accused of war crimes and crimes against humanity is not a blanket statement about one being just as bad as the other, and one side being responsible for the current war is also irrelevant in this matter, if you're guilty of such crimes you're guilty no matter what the circumstances.
