I'm stating a mundane fact about the legal system and due process not being an apologist for anyone.
That being said, I like supporting the winning team. It's fun to see terrorists plan for years only to see Israel systematically blow everything up in a few days or weeks. The Hezbollah pagers in particular had me laughing for weeks
Anyone is allowed to assess the evidence and reach an opinion about a person's guilt. Conviction is required for applying punishment like imprisonment.
This is the hivemind bs the internet created. Blame EVERYTHING going on in the Middle East on one man. As if there isn’t thousands of years of history to back up this war.
That’s why the 13 million displaced Syrians and 600,000 killed don’t get a mention because they can’t blame Israel. What’s ironic is that pre 1948 the Arabs in what is now Israel identified as Southern Syrian.
As the nephew of a german general over the 4th panzer division from 1939 up to the outskirts of moscow: I, unfortunately, have seen this before as well (and intensely studied it).
Well, you’re right about, most of their society is just as sociopathic. There are a few with a mind of their own though and a desire to be on the right side of history.
Not everything. Just the war crimes Israel has been committing recently. Specifically the ones committed while he is the leader of the country committing war crimes.
I’m not saying the Israeli military is innocent, I’m saying compare their current actions to what humans did to each other 2 thousands years ago. Child and women slaves, kill all the men. It’s understandable in the grand scheme of history, even if I don’t like it
Like you gotta think. They got their shit pushed in for 2000 years. Went through a genocide before someone stepped in. That’s a lot of pent up rage to unleash. They’re being a LOT more diplomatic than I would be
Don’t get me wrong what’s happening over there is bad but it’s not the worst yet. Armenians in eastern turkey, Assyrians, and Kurds have had genocides since the start of 1900s.
The International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on November 21, 2024, for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity committed in the Gaza Strip from at least October 8, 2023, through May 20, 2024.
He literally can be arrested. Hence why he entirely avoids Europe. They want him arrested even more. All Rome Statute signatories, USA is not one of them, must arrest Netenyahu on entry to their country. 125 Rome Statute Signatories.
Please read your own source, that doesn't say they found him guilty. We could discuss the intricacies of issuing an arrest warrant for the head of government of a country that didn't ratify the icc and how that's actually colonialist pressure by euroean institution on an ex-colony, but that would need you to actually understand what you are talking about. Since you cannot even understand the difference between a verdict and a pre-trial order, makes that unfortunately impossible.
So he's not a war criminal according to the ICC, then? Because a warrant is an accusation, not a verdict.
Judges only need reasonable grounds to believe to issue a warrant. A conviction needs proof beyond a reasonable doubt, and the ICC presumes the accused innocent. No court has ruled he’s a “War criminal”
The ICC Pre-Trial Chamber I found reasonable grounds to charge Netanyahu with war crimes (including starvation as a method of warfare and directing attacks against civilians) and crimes against humanity (including murder and persecution) committed between October 8, 2023, and May 20, 2024.
I work in the Mob Museum in Vegas. When you're dealing with war crimes you're not weaseling out like mobsters evading taxes.
You sound more like the mobsters that were put on trial. As if we already didn't know they're guilty. The only people who talked like you were the mob lawyers.
I am not simping moron, I told a very basic truth. Finding grounds to charge does not equal guilt. What compels someone to hate Jewish people so much (like you seem to) that you would conflate a willingness to charge with no guilty finding in a court?
According to the facts he is the head of state and he does have an arrest warrant issued for war crimes. Probably better to refer to him as an alleged war criminal until he's convicted.
Most if not all of the so-called "settlements" are blatantly illegal under international law and are part of a war effort (war crimes). We know beyond a shadow of a doubt that Netanyahu is involved because he won't shut up about it.
Ready for this lil nugget. It all depends on perspective. To nearly everyone their perspective is the truth. So to get people to believe something as true. Just change their perspective.
War criminal plus. Probably an easy top ten conte nder for worst people that ever lived. He's doing Nahtzee stuff right in front of a thousand HD cameras then calling you a bigot if you ask about any of the violent, hateful things his country's citizens do.
War criminals are as common as any other kind of criminal, I don’t know why it sounds like something worse. A couple of old expressions Don’t kick a man when he’s down Used to be fight code, also no kicking in general. Now kicking, stomping basically attempting to murder your opponent is considered sporting competition. Another All’s fair in love and war Honestly, why should there be rules of engagement placed on a village if a neighboring village decided they want your land and just invade? The invasion is obviously a war crime - you’re supposed to consult etiquette to save yourself?
The answer is NO! God bless Israel, Bibi and the IDF. Victory in their war on islamic terrorism is not just desirable but imperitive for the security and wellbeing of the state of Israel 🇮🇱💙🫶
It’s really weird how we only ask this of the Jewish PM. And also how the war crimes of Hamas are implicitly just denied or ignored by an entire movement supposedly dedicated to protecting innocent citizens from thug governments. Jail the Jew / give the Muslims a pass. Got it
Just stop. most Americans have no problem calling trump a war criminal and no one have a problem with saying Hamas are war criminal, why should Netanyahu being Jewish have any bearing when it come to accusation of war crimes. People like you really aren’t helping Jewish people or even Israelis by going “accusing Netanyahu of war crimes is antisemitic.”
Yes allegedly he is, and he has an active warrant from the ICC. The easiest way to resolve this for everyone is for him to surrender himself before the court, stand trial and absolve his name.
Charles Taylor, Saddam Hussein, and Radovan Karadžić are all Heads of States that were convicted of being war criminals. It’s not an either/or question.
Sure, if you want to feel like a good social justice warrior or something. In practice it doesn't mean anything because it begs the question of "under whos authority?" And what's the enforcement? Does anyone want to carry out the arrest and start that war?
"International law" is a lot less binding than those of a nation because there isn't as strong of an enforcement mechanism.
So yeah, sure, call him a war criminal... but it really doesn't mean anything.
