Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu flew over Greece, Italy, France and Canada on Thursday on his way to address the UN, despite an International Criminal Court warrant for his arrest.
The ICC issued an arrest warrant for Netanyahu in November 2024, on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity allegedly committed in Gaza since October 2023.
Netanyahu arrived in the US for a short visit to address the UN General Assembly in New York, where Mayor Zohran Mamdani has said he does not have the authority to arrest the Israeli leader.
But what about the rules based international order?
We break the rules, you follow the orders, Citizen!
Pussies
Coming from reddit, it’s interesting to see a world news forum that isn’t entirely and totally captured by Israeli Hasbara mods. I got banned from reddit’s /worldnews for pointing out that “invade Iran” vs “let Iran have nukes” is an asinine false dichotomy. (And I didn’t even use the word “asinine.”)
I think Iran should have nukes
I think any country that allows things like this should get ignored by the ICC for any criminals that they want to have arrested. France looking for a criminal that stole stuff from the Louvre or something? Nah, ask someone else.
France (and the rest of capitalist core) is already ignored by ICC. Reading many comments in this thread i see that people seems to have many misconceptions concerning purpose and scale of ICC. In fact, it is not chasing burglars, but it is the colonial court for Africa and the scale of its activities are kinda pathetic since the number of indicted are not many and many of them were not even arrested and judged.
ICC only had its five minutes when it accused Putin (enthusiastically supported by all the countries that now ignore its accusation against Netanyahu) and now Netanyahu.
I hate to say I told you so, but I earlier this week I said the ICC a neocolonial imperialist institution employs selective justice. Turns out the .today and .worlders were wrong again.
What are they supposed to do? Shoot him down?
If he is unwilling to land, when ordered? Yes. He is guilty of committing war crimes, they are supposed to do something about that.
Yes
FIRE THE MISSILES
“Rules-based international order” folks.
the west’s rules based international order is dead , and they killed it themselves
Rules based international suggestions
The Western imperialist rules-based order is the same as it ever was: they make up the rules and order everyone else around.
turns out the “international” law only applies to the global south and that the “international community” is just the NATO and friends.
Remember when France did this on Obama’s orders in 2013? Bolivia Presidential plane forced to land after false rumors of Snowden onboard.
The rules bent order
where Mayor Zohran Mamdani has said he does not have the authority to arrest the Israeli leader.
As expected, he knew this very well
Contrary to France, Italy and Greece who signed the ICC; they have the authority but not the balls nor the spine. Their leaders are fucking losers
Last year it was “I’ll definitely arrest him if he comes to New York”
yes, you know it sounds nice but it’s not more than that.

It’s kind of amazing .world lets Zionists like you have an account for so long. @jordanlund@lemmy.world
@jordanlund@lemmy.world will probably make him a mod lol
24 days with 0 reported posts in any of my communities, nothing much I can do about it, but yeah, the comment that got removed here would catch a ban in World as well. I haven’t seen apologia like that since 10/7 when people were trying to say the Israelis hadn’t “really” killed that many people…
Maybe you should stop moderating fucking Nazi communities.
LOL - still running that “nonconfrontational” line I see… How’s that working out for you?

are we pretending that most people protesting the genocide of palestinians do not also abhor the actions of the west in iraq and afghanistan (and iran).

Genocide denial

Oh so not 50k? So you were lying then.
And we both know damn well that 77k is the number of positively identified direct fatalities (not causalities, as you tried to lie) caused by Israeli munitions, it doesn’t include deaths from indirect causes resulting from the complete destruction of civil infrastructure or deaths that couldn’t be confirmed because the bodies were buried beneath bubble or couldn’t be positively identified by what remains of the Palestinian medical system after it’s systematic destruction by Israel. Meanwhile the number you’re citing for Afghanistan is total excess mortality from all secondary effects.
But again, you know that, and you’re being dishonest on purpose because you support the genocide going on in Gaza.
