Funny how they all stick together - Yvette Cooper on Sky News this morning having a hard time wriggling out of the question of would Netenyahu be arrested if he came to the UK.

“…not my decision…” she finally said.

Hang the fact that she is Home Secretary :rofl: They are all as bad as each other.

Just hot air, they willnever be brought to justice along with mad Vlad and his cronies either.

No but at least it makes it very inconvenient for them to travel abroad apart from a few non member countries.

I picked this out from the link:

“There is no moral equivalence between Israel, a democracy, and Hamas and Lebanese Hezbollah, which are terrorist organisations.

Of course there isn’t, they are not allowed to be countries, free in their own territory. Even Israel was born in terrorism, Haganah, Stern etc…

I saw this in the Independent today…

A staunch ally of Donald Trump has warned Keir Starmer that the UK will face severe economic consequences if it helps arrest Benjamin Netanyahu.

Senator Lindsey Graham said the US should “crush” the economies of all those who comply with the international warrant issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC).
…
The South Carolina senator later told Fox News: “If you are going to help the ICC as a nation and force the arrest warrant against Bibi and Gallant…I will put sanctions on you as a nation.”

“You’re gonna have to pick the rogue ICC versus America. I’m working with (another US senator) Tom Cotton to have legislation passed as soon as we can to sanction any country that aids and abets the arrest of any politician in Israel. What they’re doing in Israel is trying to prevent a second Holocaust. So, to any ally, Canada, Britain, Germany, France, if you try to help the ICC, we’re gonna sanction you.”

Asked what the penalty should be, he added: “We should crush your economy because we’re next…Why can’t they go after Trump or any other American president?”

Seems a perfectly normal and rational sort of thing for a senator to say…!?!

As if one needed any more proof that the US is a rogue state there you have it.

I’m not so sure, what comes around etc.

BTW how many women and children has the dictator Putin slaughtered vs Netanyahu? Both want to cling on to power but only one has decided a genocide is the way to do it.

The irony.
