EU leaders divided on ICC arrest warrant bid for Netanyahu | DW News
Israel has again denounced the International Criminal Court. On Monday, the court's chief prosecutor requested a warrant for the arrest of Israel's prime minister and defense minister over the war in Gaza. In a statement, a spokesperson for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu urged "nations of the civilized free world" to oppose and condemn the decision. EU leaders are divided on the arrest warrant bid for Netanyahu.

The EU is now in a tricky situation. If they decide that they don't really want to enforce this arrest warrant (if it goes ahead), it will effectively be the end of the ICC. If they do enforce it, it will mean a new policy needed for the Middle East, and negative impact to the defence industry as well as loss of diplomatic credibility.

The EU? What are you BSing about. The EU has no police force, it is a group of 27 sovereign nations and police forces. It has no foreign policies without agreement by all 27 and they are not on agreement on anything about this conflict. Foreign policy is not a competency of the EU, each member country has their own. Ireland, Spain and others are just about to formally recognise Palestine as a full UN member country, for example.

They're all the monsters. One set killed approx 1,200 & took 200 hostages, the other set put a whole population in prison, has over 4,450 hostages, has killed approx 30,000 (so far) & is starving millions. The lesser monsters are probably operating within international law by engaging in an armed struggle against an invading force, whereas the great monsters are the invading force. One set of monsters comes from the indigenous population and the other set from colonial settlers. It's a lot like Africa in the 1970s & 80s. However, all of this is up to the ICC to determine, not politicians.

Civilized nations will leave the court to do its job. They also will not be threatening the court with any sort of retaliation.Regarding the "free world", that does not include the Palestinians. One thing many people do not understand is that there are fanatics on both sides of this conflict. This is the only thing that explains what has happened in this conflict.

There is nothing civilised about the Israeli government. The ICC is an independent court and must be respected by civilised countries
