re: ICC issues arrest warrant for Netanyahu for war crimes in Gaza first for a U.S. ally

More just commenting on how people in the US revere this dude, yet he constantly lobbies against the interests of the american public and it's frankly unreasonable to believe the Israeli government, which he heads, was not aware of 10/7 before it happened.

Netanyahu actually might be more popular in the US than in Israel. Most Israelis seem to see him as a "least bad option" currently and he is as hated by the left there as Trump is by our left here. Think of the protest movement against him prior to 10/7, it was the largest such movement in Israel's history.

I've read that the Israelis were, like 73, just lulled into complacency before 10/7. they feared a similar attack from Hezbollah in the north but even hearing chatter from Gaza they never thought Hamas was capable of doing something like that. After 2006 their focus was almost entirely on the north. It's why they could pull of the pager attacks and kill Nasrallah but even now they just lucked into killing Sinwar and can't find their hostages. Their intel on Gaza is actually pretty awful compared to what they have on Lebanon.

Hamas also did a good job of fooling the Israeli government into thinking they were going the way of the PA and becoming more interested in money and governance as opposed to terrorism, all while secretly planning 10/7. The Israelis thought they'd been successfully bought off and they were wrong.

I'll take the ICC seriously when they go after Bush, Cheney, and Pelosi.

Trump is bought and paid for. Since Miriam Adelson dropped 100 million on his re-election I knew Trump would be all-in on Israel first.

The Jews buy all our presidents.

Mike Bloomberg bought the 2020 election for Joe Biden and as soon as Nikki Haley was no longer viable Adelson went all in on Trump with 100 million dollar donation.

America is basically a vassal state of Israel. Somehow we "magically"always end up in a war with all of Israel's enemies.

I still remember Netanyahu testifying before congress swearing to the WMD and the Nuclear program Saddam had up and running.

The guy is scum.

Although I am sure he will avoid the countries that have agreed to enforce ICC arrest warrants any country thinking of detaining Netanyahu better think twice with Trump’s election. Due to ICC overstepping and trying to get US soldiers arrested we are actually supposed to act as the check on situations like this.

United States has a law requiring the US government "to use all means necessary and appropriate to bring about the release of any person described in subsection (b) who is being detained or imprisoned by, on behalf of, or at the request of the International Criminal Court." That law, passed in 2002, is called the American Service-Members' Protection Act. This law was passed in direct response to potential politically driven ICC indictments of US servicemembers serving in Afghanistan. The law was jokingly referred to as The Hague Invasion Act.

The "person described in subsection (b)" also includes our formal and informal allies:
1 COVERED ALLIED PERSONS- The term `covered allied persons' means military personnel, elected or appointed officials, and other persons employed by or working on behalf of the government of a NATO member country, a major non-NATO ally (including Australia, Egypt, Israel, Japan, Jordan, Argentina, the Republic of Korea, and New Zealand), or Taiwan, for so long as that government is not a party to the International Criminal Court and wishes its officials and other persons working on its behalf to be exempted from the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court.

Any nation attempting to detain Netanyahu would be in direct confrontation with the US. That might not have been a big deal under Biden, but it will be a big deal under Trump. The loss of trade and diplomatic ties, as well as economic sanctions, will probably make the most hardened virtue-signaling, pro-Hamas Karen think twice before trying to arrest Netanyahu or Gallant.

Any country attempting to arrest him better also avoid using cell phones and pagers.

Jackson Hinkle is such a gay narcissistic turd.

It used to be a right of passage for muslim Lebanese to go to border and fire rifles into Israel. It didn’t matter if they hit anyone or not, but it shows their mentality. They aren’t innocents and are actually supporters of terrorism against Israel and have been for a long time including when it was the PLO doing it. Once muslims gained the upper hand in Lebanon it went to hell.

Lol that’s the correct opinion on this issue.

same, I wouldn't give the bastards a dime, same for Ukraine.

It’s not really that Lebanon “allows” Hezbollah to operate as much as the Lebanese military is extremely weak and can’t stop Hezbollah. No country would want a paramilitary group like Hezbollah operating in their country if they had a choice.
