- Luis Moreno Ocampo discusses the International Criminal Court arrest warrant requests for Israeli and Hamas leaders.
As Israel’s war on Gaza keeps raging, the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC) has requested arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defence Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity. The prosecutor, Karim Khan, has taken the same actions against three Hamas leaders.
If the arrest warrants are granted, the five men won’t be able to step foot in any country that is a signatory to the ICC without risking arrest. Both Israel and Hamas have condemned the requests.
The court has long been criticised for going after leaders only from the Global South, so does this decision signal it is now willing to prosecute Western powers and their close allies?
This week on UpFront, Marc Lamont Hill speaks with the first chief prosecutor of the ICC, Luis Moreno Ocampo, about the implications of arrest warrants for the Israeli and Hamas leaders.
I do hope to see Netanyahu in prison during my lifetime…

Thanks to South Africa for all they efforts
South Africa is a crime-infested failed state.
ICJ has ordered Israel to get out of Rafah, Open Rafah border and let investigators in Gaza... UNSC must enforce the orders ASAP and Algeria must put a motion for a vote in Monday!!
UNSC huh? Isn't that where the US likes to veto for Israel??? It's always Might makes Right. The UN is a farce by the Mighties.
Agreed! Please watch "Gaza Ghetto: Portrait of a Palestinian Family 1985" on CZcams, available on Richard Kuklinsky's small channel. This valuable historical documentary from the 1980s captures cruel the reality of Palestinian life under occupation at that time.
No such luck. Israel sovereign
I. c. j. has no enforcement power which is why it will go to u.n securitty councill for a vote
@@kosiekoos9408They are part of the UN. Dont confuse the ICC and ICJ
It's great to hear Luis Moreno Ocampo. He understands the law and respects it. Understands and respects people, too. When he lectured in Jerusalem, he was welcomed like a dear friend. And so he is in the long run.

Son of God does not mean that God has a child in Christianity!

*what a mistake in the Qur'an!*
Allah himself testifies that he has a son and he is the son as Christians understand it! Only the Koran writer was too ignorant to know what Son of God means!

He got absolutely shellacked by the Son of Hamas in a debate.

Totally agree, no country is above the law! 👍
Including the war mongering US
Biden is complicit, arrest him too
usa , britain, france , australia etc obviously are
I personally feel heartbroken that my country, the United States, has forgotten what we stand for.
I agree supporting our allies to a CERTAIN EXTENT. NOT unconditionally
You people have not forgotten ! it is the career politicians within your nation who are letting you slide down the ladder of global respect and approval.
Never have...you are just waking up.
US should befriend new allies who have morals, humanity and justice. The present ones are all garbage!
America has always been like this
You merely allowed yourself to believe ALL of the lies, even after 2001
That's on you
Sorry, what did your country stand for in the past? Because it was never about freedom or justice
The expression of the guest after hearing Netanyahu's accusation on kareem khan about being antisemitic was excellent 😂
that Pbbt 😂😂😂
This old chestnut has long lost any of it's original meaning and power. The Zionists have not only hijacked the Jewish religion to serve it's own means but it has watered down the term Anti-Semite to nothing but a whimsical phrase used to shut down discourse about the evil doings inside the evil Israeli state.
The reply was even better, talking about Theodor Meron as one of the advisory judges. It makes Netanyahu look like a complete fool with his antisemitism claim.
The people of Palestine have the right to peace and security. ❤

America's response: "Whatever Israel says is true"
The UK response: "Whatever the US says is true"
Germany's response: "Whatever Israel says is true because we're still sorry about WWII"
Nailed it. That's the circus we're in. Sadly, this circus likes to play with we@p0ns in lots of playgrounds that they have no business meddling in.
Biden will be included in conspiracy and accomplice to genocide in Gaza, thus funding and arming Israel commit genocide. If Trump is in courts at dock facing charges why not biden because he'd be out of Whitehouse by end this year. The starting is sunak will be defeated come next UK general election.
Nearly a century later, it seems like Germany still can't differentiate self-defense from genocide.

Definitely natenyahu is scared he's already told US to help him stop ICC from arresting him
Include the US hypocrite
Netanyahu will be arrested in the 140 countries that has officially recognized Palestine and most of western Europe. The world hates genocidal Israel
He wants to travel to the US and cry to the Senate, literally the worst possible thing he can do for everyone involved
That's going to be a pivotal moment in history, especially when the US is supposed to arrest him per the ICC
Like someone said, he might even get Hannah Baaled
He's a frustrated man. Can't get away with what his army did in gaza. It's scary. Biggest setback of mankind in modern history that needs repair of extreme magnitude.
An evil man will even be scared of his own shadow

why do they still talk about Hamas killing 1440 civilians
200 were already to be identified as Hamas
IDF members and ISrael ciovilians told IDF was shooting people how can Hamas have killed the people shot by IDF bullets?
Hamas did kill people in gunfire and bullets that issed target
but people who had forced IDF srvice are trained military not innocent civilians
yes, i hope, they bring up the hannibal directive to the icc!
@@orientalgirl8926 they will not since they already blame hamas even the 200 dead hamas of the 1400 dead
justy like the horrible things Israel claimed
but when investigations are don those people do not exist
so how could those people be victims
same with the mass rapes the baby sacrifices
i wonder what kind of person can support Israel knwoing the disgusting lies they tell
same with the UNWRA so many claims zero proof
just the legendary words "we know just trust us we know"
Israel always lie and propaganda. If they can tape there mother to show to world Hamas did they will do .
Same reason they are still repeating the beheaded babies, baked babies and mass rapes I guess.

No Arab country wishes to take in Palestinians...wonder why?

Could listen to this former prosecutor all day. Took some time for me to understand his accent etc...i watched him first with christian amanpour, but now i am smitten....fascinating. Great interviewer, good questions ❤
Me as well , I had to listed to the interview twice to understand . First impression, I like him .
If you look up his name, there was a documentary done about him while he was the Chief Prosecutor of the ICC.
Mobsters would say the same, it is the judge whom should be afraid of his/her life.

"You cannot defeat terrorism using war”
You can't defeat an ideology vie war ! The Irish held on tho their ideology against the English for over six hundred years until the two factions finally agreed to live together in "relative' peace ! Good luck Mr. Smotrich, Gevir, Gantz and Netanyahu. you only have an additional five hundred and twenty four years to go.
One-day you're called a terrorist and the next day you're the President of your country when it is free from colonial occupation and oppression I.e. Ireland and South Africa. Gaza, I pray, will have their recognised State ...too many have suffered and died for too long...this slaughter has to stop.
Wait, I thought Israel were the terrorists?
What is Terrorism ? If I accept a someone in my house and the next day he close the doors and start to treat me badly and I fight back against that person, that is not terrorism but rather am fighting for my freedom or resisting that person's behaviour over me.
War causes terrorism in the sense that you meant it. Probably because war is terrorism.
Great arguments submitted with eloquence. Bravo!
Yoo-hoo coming to speak at Congress soon. House speaker said so today. Nice to hear a highly intelligent respected man tell it simply and right. Thank you. Our Congress has lost their mind
So you think your congress people has a mind to start with ?? I doubt it. Their minds are mostly filled with money from lobbyists. So even if they have one to start with there's no room left to think !! That's why they say "money talks'.

The relevance of the Court is rightly to be questioned when none of the parties (or potential parties) acknowledges it.
.
You left out the only one that is actually relevant and that is the PA. Their application to join was accepted so the ICC does have jurisdiction
@@benik3297 That is how Hasbara works! And sheeps agree...
He literally says in video that Palestine provides the jurisdiction!
@@benik3297… The PA is not relevant, because they have no presence in Gaza, and none of the parties who have been charged will ever be under PA jurisdiction.
There is an old saying, “not worth the paper it’s written on”.
.
All this posturing and screaming about the court is proof of relevance. If it's irrelevant, you just ignore it. But the damage to the reputation by being indicted makes them behave deranged.

where was the world court telling america off for nuking 2 CIVILIAN cities in japan? or lying about the vietnam war and killing 5 million vietnamese? or lying about iraq and killling another 1 million iraqis? my point….
War is illegal to start with. There is no legal advice on something that should be abolished. Countries selling weapons to other countries is illegal. Weapon companies trading in the stock market is also illegal. Actually if weapon companies weren't trading I am pretty sure 90% of world wide conflicts won't exist.
It is atill about the same. Iarael disrespected international law, no rspecting anyone, anything. Ahould be isolated immediately!
Nobody above the law
"Justice delayed is justice denied".
Marc becomes Egyptian when he says the word Hamas.
I don't think you understand what it means to be afraid. Why doesn't he "Netanyahu" stop if he's indeed afraid?
Loss of face he can't accept his loss that's why he's psycho!

That prosecutor is as safe as a Boeing whistle blower
He speaks with so much charm
6:05 correction:
1,200 people not 1,400,
400 were military so thats 700 civilians killed or taken hostage
Will not stop
Ocampo good man 👍
Guys, where can I get a TRANSCRIPT of every word the former prosecutor says? He be Dropping Jewels.!
On your mom house 😂
This former ICC prosecutor guest is very difficult to understand, but also, why is he using the number of 1,400? That number was lowered to under 1,200 long ago, and most of those were either Izrelli military and/or killed by the I D F themselves. Too, victims of occupation have the legal right of armed resistance against their occupier.
There's a great saying: "When investigating a crime becomes a crime, you know the criminals are in charge." So true. People who deny conspiracies assume that if evil takes over a government then that evil will announce itself as evil. That's very naive.
Useless court what are they waiting for after all atrocities
This isn't a war it's a 76 year ongoing Geno!!
