#InternationalCriminalCourt
Netenayu is a criminal even in his own country.
Netenayu has a country to defend from a barrage of Arab nations who swear death to Israel, yet allows business exchange with these nation within his country. There will always be people suade to create havoc as Israeli citizens.
@@jaimeesquivel1565 "to defend from a barrage of Arab nations who swear death to Israel" That's funny can you tell me what Arab nation swears death or care about Israel?
Duke Van Funny cause last I recall Israel has further record of finds that that particular land belongs to them, hence why Britain gave it to them as they conquered it and had it as a colony, hence why Hebrew artifacts are found riddled throughout the land and why Palestinian derived from a word meaning Sea People. You can read it for yourself in Britannica.
Duke Van Ha! Lol. I’m Mexican American and I don’t take offense to such nonsense. First off México ceded the land. And those who were on the land as of the treaty became America citizens and still kept heritage, but gain American pride. Not swear to God they will take vengeance against America; on the contrary, they are neighbors with good relations.
Duke Van Your obviously not Christian.
They love the ICC when they're criticising others, they hate it when they are criticising them
For once the ICC is investigating a non-African country over war crimes, what an improvement!
unfortunately, nothing will happen in the end
@@manada00 yeah, what can you do to the police of the world lol
Suddenly the US calls it a kangaroo court.
But does it matter or has to do anything with the war crimes done in Afghanistan and Palestine... It is leading to killing of civilians-thats the most gloomy part
5:27 the woman is dumb, the USA is not afraid, it's angry because its national interests will be hindered by that stupid international organization.
because the bullies are toxic to the world and dont like the other kids in the playground to talk about them
Bullies? More like devils.
you know you are guilty when you outright refuse to go to the court of law and threaten it
I always thought...that a defendant is innocent unless proven guilty. Did they change it already?
@@chitojuinio9342 So you go to trial then, but imposing sanctions to the people that is investigating you is no the best way to prove your innocence.
Chito Juinio Then why are they acting guilty? Its like a bully saying “no I did not bully child x and if anyone says that I did or investigates it I will bully them too”
@@jaimemoreno8866 if there are no basis....i think thats logical. It's like when you accuse someone of doing a crime and he knows he did not do...he should counter it right? Since the US won't get anything if they win on this trial...why should they bother.
@@AhmedMohamed-pg2bb if they think the US is guilty...then pursue it. But don't complain if sanctions are imposed as it is their right too.
Best reporter i have seen and listen ever.. Excellent and outstanding. Many Thanks
If the ICC mattered, every US president would have been prosecuted.
Well, Clinton and up.
Indeed
Yessss
5:27 the woman is dumb, the USA is not afraid, it's angry because its national interests will be hindered by that stupid international organization.
@@MahoneyBadger from WW2 until now....all would be hanged
Al Jazeera is revolutionary channel
Baaler channel 😊
Criminals has history of targeting court and witnesses.
The American government has started and funded more wars than any other Nation
They are above the law
Might makes right
I ve never really watched footages of the horrific events in afghanistan and palestine😔...i feel so helpless ryt now...also i wish Allah to give them all the strength in the world....the icc must go on...and fight...cause atleast they are bringing these powerfull wrongdoers to account.
If they actually did some work for the millions a year they waste on salaries you would be correct. 4 convictions in 20 years isn't good enough!
It is vary important. But going after the powerful is a hard thing to do .
If there is rightousness in the world, a proper and and honest investigation is held, and my country is found guilty, then we should be held accountable. We are big enough to push the world around, we should be big enough to suffer the consequences of war crimes. A huge black eye to my country, the United States of America. We were supposed to be helping, not killing. I am sorry for my countrys involvement in the middle east. And to those who were negatively affected by our presence there. We had no right. Bush and Trump did the damage. God bless Barack Obama. His leadership is missed.

The Communist Chinese Party govt should also be included for review by the ICC.
Also Indian army and Indian hindu nationalistic govt
Has the ICC investigated Frazzledrip or is it afraid of HRC too?
05:30 "if youre not afraid of something, why would you want to get rid of it?" "First they came for the _____, but i did not say anything, for they were not me"
I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that his justice cannot sleep forever.

911 was an inside job
Israel, Mussod, Cheney, Bremen, Wolferitz, Pearl, Rumsfeld, Giuliani, Eric Prince, Silverstein, and faceless/nameless others.
All nations are driven by their own interest, and they will fight fiercely for it at whatever price. The U.S. is not afraid, they are merely reminding this organization of its place in the world stage. Always remember, it is not the weak that sets the rules of the game.
Thank you!
Who watches the Watchman
I am from Maidan Wardak Afghanistan i was there in that time our life was like in the hel USA killed they civil people. All ting happened in my village. They was not Taliban i now all of them. some of them was students, drivers an shopkeepers and one of them was my friend. That was the horrible time in my life. When they killed my villagers after 6 monts we funded they are bones.😧😨😰
@Katie K Thank you 💜👍
We good. This is interesting and fair information. Thank you!
Great insight, very informative, thank you and keep it up please! 👏
That's just great..
pls keep going
The who and un should also be investigated
At first I thought it's ICC=International Cricket Council.
Suspected war crimes 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
And there are supported by the world by a mast majority except for like 8 counties. Three of them being Russia China and USA.
And Americans say CHINA is the Enemy 😂
Brilliant report, keep it up.
Reinhold Hanning served as an SS guard at the Auschwitz concentration camp from early 1942 until June 1944. He was convicted for his crimes in June 2016. Therefore, it was approximately 72 years after his crimes that he was sentenced, and the most recent restitution of possessions stolen from Jewish people during the Holocaust that I found was in Lithuania and Latvia. A 2022 law granted 5 to 10 million euros (roughly $5.4 to $10.8 million) to be distributed among Holocaust victims by the Good Will Foundation. The exact amount of each one-time payment will be determined based on the total number of approved applicants, who will receive their compensation by July 1, 2025. So, by following the same international laws the entire territory of Israel could face claims for restitution by the Palestinian community.
Because the U.S. can, that's why. 👹
Honest journalism..🌺👍
Oh wow l did not know about that, Thankyou l have learned something new, great listening to you,do a good Job explaining it all
Start Here is very interesting show..... Keep it up! 💞💞💞
Definitely messed up, but I'm willing to wager that the moment the US leaves, the Taliban are going to get right back in power a.s.a.p.
Hate em or not, the situation has undoubtedly improved since 2001, and the moment the US leaves, all of that improvement will be in vain.
Thank you ICC for the work you are doing! You bring tyrants to court, which is a rare thing nowdays.
Good job. Good reporting
Awesome.
great piece
We know Australia has because its army hierarchy recently admitted to it. Where is their Prime Minister coming out to condemn such heinous acts?
Mind opening video, thanks
Thank you icc🙏🙏🙏🙏
Great info
Great effort
I thought International Cricket Council 😂
Some points that you forgot to mention that are importent if you dont want to be called biased:
1) palestine is NOT a state, its the first time in history that the ICC accepts a non state. why? are the palestinians special (more then kurds or any other people)? thats double standard.
2) the ICC can be used as a weapon between 2 nations at war, not a weapon of justice but a weapon just to win a war. a rogue nation can start a war with another (victim) nation, ask the ICC to investigate the soldiers of the other (victim) nation for so called "war crimes". the result is that for every operation the (victim) nation must waste alot of time in investigations, and as you see you cant go to a (defensive) war like this.
about USA i am sure they committed war crimes in afganistan and iraq.
This is exactly why the us shouldn't get involved in affairs in The middle east and central asia, they are supposed to be there as Peacekeepers not by adding to the killings. I ask you who is the biggest threat.
The rich and powerful escape justice, nothing new under the sun.
World needs more journalist like her...she speaks the truth..May Allah bless her....
I serviced in Afghanistan in 2008 (Not US). It was the wild west.....and I've seen countries send soldiers to jail for war crimes but....not the US. the US used the "Fog of War" to lose paper work reference actions by there guys. If the ICC interviews all members that serviced and found out what we done and know...put it this way. there is not enough jail space for all of us in the world.
when you leave...sign this bit of paper, here is your pension and don't talk about it.
Interesting, very interesting. 💕🙏🏽✌🏽
This world is an animal farm.
The lady makes it sound like the U.S. just wanted to crash a birthday party and murder people but completely left out the part where the village got raided because members of the Taliban were hiding out there. You know, the same Taliban that supported a terrorist that arranged for airplanes to blow up random, innocent people. This very much attempts to portray U.S. in a bad light while leaving out facts they find inconvenient. I'm not an advocate of torture but the prisoners that got captured were horrible people. So let's stop pretending there's no reason for these raids and interrogations. This clip provides zero evidence that anyone but enemy combatants were killed. Just features some lady that says the U.S. showed up during a birthday party but fails to mention the fact the they were there to take out enemy combatants.
Heartbeat on the words investigate and charges.
If you give a Mouse a Cookie... you have a wonderful model of what happens when you let the Trump Rike impose sanctions on the ICC (International Criminal Court).
Great reporting! Suggestion: How universal health systems handle the current coronavirus pandemic compared to the broken private health system of the United States? Please do an extensive, fair and scientific analysis for these 2 systems in full episode that can be used as reference.
I am from India we sapport al Jazeera
the taliban didn't "refuse to hand over bin laden".. what are you even taking about? they offered to hand him over if solid evidence was presented that he was involved.
Any pdf of report . I want to go through
great.
The rich start the wars and it is always the poor who fight and die in them
@Katie K you are just another brainwashed mental midget
Common sense. Criminals never like Police. Never like Judges. Never like Court.
Moreover which country commited the most crimes against other country??????
Israel tells what the US to do, thats what its about.
The US is accountable to no one? WTF?
Good Video !
Who need and what can do the International Court for powerful countries? In UE criminals are protected. They go in prison like in hotel. The criminality it is at 24%. In Russia is 6%. The International Court member are countries where is not any human rights implemented by their government which abuse their people.
Me watching today 20 th May after ICC seeks arrest warrant for Israeli leaders and Hamas-let’s see what’s up again. 😅
War itself, should be viewed as a crime.
America baby
We all know this inquiry will never amount to anything..there are different rules for different countries
The controllers control the ICC as well which is another dog and pony show.
because TRUMPET and his criminals as BANNON preparing to make NEW CRIMINAL WAR somewhere
You know what would be a huge slap in the face to the US. If a high profile member of the afghan government and the Taliban both went to the court to stand trial and abide by their rulings. When the US does not do the same it will take them down a peg in the eyes of the world.
Except in cases where international institutions are populated with appointees from regimes that do not represent their own people or which are engaged in particularly egregious violations of human rights, American "exceptionalism" should be about striving for exceptional character and contributions to itself and the world--not about making exceptions for itself when there is a justly constituted court.
I am not commenting on the political topic of whether the ICC fits this or not, merely stating that, as a U.S. citizen, I see it is in our own interests to work toward international relations where we do not indefinitely put ourselves above the law--as long as the law is not made, carried out, or adjudicated by non-representative officials or is otherwise unfairly constituted.
ICC has a terrible reputation on the African continent I wonder why?
Shame on them US & Isreal should face the justice system for crimes against humanity
Every one of them are corrupt...
She's a great Host.
i wish in the future humans can only be charged for theft rape or murder nothing else. not incest or adultery. the state should not have too much power over the individual. also no more labeling of psychopath or sociopath unless murder is involved. no more labeling of autism.
Do the National Security Law situation in Hongkong next!
They think they are peace keeper but they are the one who cause mischief in the land
I thought full form of icc was international cricket Council
The problem is Afghanistan never had proper law and order. Actually things were far worse before US invaded Afghanistan. Women had no freedoms, no education and brutal Taliban rule. It is a very hard situation to be in a hostile environment like that where you are constantly being bombed and shot. I wish Afghanistan well.
Good way to enhance my knowledge rapidly.
Israel&united States an Europe until they never show ICC, this world will never be a peace place.until we get accountabilities done.
Whenever i see BUSH, his forehead reminds me of German shepherd
If the ICC didn’t get Cheney, Rumsfeld, Bush, and Kissinger....then they certainly won’t get Trump, Pompeo, and Bolton.
So.... International laws do not apply to US & israel.
I love her voice and the way she presents.....
Did US went to Iraqi and Afghanistan wars according to member states backed UN resolution? Or they were there to gain their own political goals?
Same as mafia boss threatening the judge and her families.
Truth always wins against lies.
She's got some knockers!
Uncle sam is above the law.
Can the ICC also investigate unfair international trade where the weak are financially abused such as the way China and western countries financially feast on 'poor countries'?
Israel and the US should ve thrown out of the UN. They think they are above the law.
we are shaming UN, still silent in Israel case
