That's mad and must have been horrifying for Cohen. You can expect that from the troll accounts but utterly shocking for 7 news to do that. JHB just shows herself up as expected

Not just JHB too, Rachel Riley seems to have become utter nutjob too.

They think and treat them as sub humans and the west lets them. Western governments are complicit in the genocide of the Palestinian people. Shameful and unforgivable.

Impossible to argue with this conclusion. Can remember when think it was ironically under Blair talk about an ethical foreign policy. Don’t hear much chat of that now.

More war crimes being commited by the west’s friends. Perhaps time to start helping the Palestinians fight this evil regime?

BREAKING: Tamir Morag of Channel 14 reports that the Israeli government has received word that the top echelon of the Israeli government and IDF will receive idictments from the ICC within the next week or so.

The individuals to be indicated include Netanyahu, Gallant, and Halevi. But the list will not stop there. They will likely be charged with crimes against humanity.

Despite his bravado about the ICC, I am hearing from sources that Netanyahu is very nervous about the high likelihood that they will issue arrest warrants. At this point, it appears that that is inevitable.

While the ICC cannot arrest anyone, all court members are obligated to hand over individuals with warrants against them. So if served, that could stop anyone served from going to 124 countries. Basically, all important nations on earth aside from the United States, China, India, and a few Arab states (and Israel, of course).

Most importantly, it would be a nightmare for Israel's international image. Russia and Sudan have had warrants issued for their leaders. But no Western democracy ever has. This is yet another piece of diplomatic fallout from the war. The clock the international community set for this conflict long expired.

Now, Israel finds itself fighting in the ICJ and soon the ICC. This will embroil Israel in a multi-year legal and diplomatic nightmare. Netanyahu is reportedly very concerned about this and thinks he can avoid some of these warrants by delaying an invasion of Rafah even further. That seems to be the main consideration right now—stopping an operation—far more than the US or Egypt.

Some good news on the Israeli/ Gaza front at last, although it will likely drag in for years until it reaches a conclusion.

Interesting article looking at the possible scenarios of Hamas post this current war. There are rumours of a Qatari, Saudi, US peaceforce going in when Israel go out, although I'm unsure how likely that is

If Ali Khamanei and Netanyahu were blootered that would help

Our government and biggest opposition party are genocide apologists and have the blood of thousands on their hands. And they will be asking the public to vote for them in a few months. A very sad state of affairs.

Forced a peaceful change in policy from their university.

Trinity College, Dublin, agrees to pulls its investments from companies helping Israel brutalise the Palestinian people. Students respond by packing up their encampment.

A college statement reads: 'We are in solidarity with the students in our horror of what is happening in Gaza.'

Does that mean sending in riot police to beat up and arrest the protesters isn't the only available option? What a strange thought.

Hopefully it will be repeated in universities across the UK but I won’t hold my breath. Protestors are more likely to be arrested on a crime of anti semitism

I think the derogatory phrase used in their case is 'Self Hating Jews'.

Those protesting against the war in the UK aren’t so there’s no reason why they should be. Others may see it differently

I’d have money on Israel winning the Eurovision tonight. Seems to be a lot of people who wouldn’t normally vote, downloading the app and sharing it.

They may come last or they may win, will be interesting to gauge opinion.

There's some very strange voting patterns happening, particularly in Italy.

I think it's going to be interesting to find out what really happened with the Dutch Eurovision contestant, who was thrown out for alleged 'inappropriate behavior'.

ICC prosecutor seeks arrest of Israeli and Hamas leaders

--------------------------------

Biden calls ICC decision 'outrageous'

We're now hearing from US President Joe Biden, who calls the International Criminal Court (ICC) chief prosecutor's application for arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defence Minister Yoav Gallant "outrageous".

Here's Biden's statement in full:

The ICC prosecutor’s application for arrest warrants against Israeli leaders is outrageous.
And let me be clear: whatever this prosecutor might imply, there is no equivalence — none — between Israel and Hamas.
We will always stand with Israel against threats to its security."

--------------------------------

UK govt opposes ICC seeking arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu & Israeli defence minister Yoav Gallant.

FCDO: “We don't believe that seeking warrants will help get hostages out, get aid in, or deliver a sustainable ceasefire. This remains the UK’s priority.”
