As MEE and others pointed out yesterday, a big part (probably the most significant part) of the reason why the three above were not charged by the ICC is because there have been Parliamentary and judicial procedures against those individuals / people associated with those acts in their countries. They might have been insufficient procedures, the people responsible might have evaded the sentences that many people thought they should have faced, but there was an attempt at an independent reckoning and that has usually been enough to dissuade the ICC.
Contrast this with the complete and well-documented absence of nearly any legal consequences to individuals for Israeli military / political actions during the occupation, or indeed for anything else carried out “for the state” such as assassinations, terror attacks, espionage or anything else abroad. There are a handful of individuals who’ve faced trial or court martial for killing or mistreating people under occupation, most of them many years ago and (as Katz reminded everyone last night) an obviously and increasingly racist system of justice that operates there. In short there’s no alternative to the ICC getting involved.
Sadly though I think providing an alternative (the establishment of a relatively independent tribunal within Israel) is going to be the most likely way in which these warrants go away; that tribunal will tear Netanyahu up (for his failures before October 7th and afterwards) and do nothing about the multitude killed in Gaza, but it will be enough for the ICC to drop this.

Proper whataboutery there from Mazzig. Did he raise any objections to the invasion of Iraq? I don't think he did. I'd like to see him in the dock at The Hague. In fact, anyone who propagandises on behalf of Netanyahu's mobster regime should face justice.

Thought this was interesting article
www.newstatesman.com
It goes into the history of left/ progressive support for Israel/ Zionism.
There was a time post war when support for Israel ( the Labour Zionist version) was the norm.
Partly due to it being seen as building socialism and also due to Holocaust.
Back then there was little interest in Palestinians.
Generally the historiography put forward by Israel was accepted. That Palestinians left due to other Arab countries encouraging them. Etc. The Nakba was never mentioned
It wasn't until later , though the article doesn't mention this, that the Israeli new historians revised this version of history.
Change started to happen in 67. With Israel occupying West Bank and Gaza.
Then in early 80s the attack on Lebanon to remove PLO.
Support for Labour Zionism goes back to early days of Labour party. Explains why it's been such a contentious issue in the party. It's not just about Starmer. Support for (Labour) Zionism has deep roots in the party going back decades.

I suspect that the lack of any comment on the ICC arrest warrants is because Lammy knows that as the UK is a signatory to the Rome Statute we should uphold and be prepared to act on arrest warrants issued by them.
I really can't imagine why neither he nor Stasrmer would not make a statement on this.

A short read but important one.
Whilst attention is on Gaza the ongoing Zionist project inside the Israeli state that started in 48 still goes on
The first time this community were moved was in 1952 so a Kibbutz could be built. Dispossession didn't end with State of Israel being founded.
Despite these Bedouins being Israeli citizens they were second class ones.

In this short piece the writer shows how Zionism was/ is about removing people and replacing them with Jews.
Its been like that from the beginning.
The same tactics used inside Israel as used in West Bank. They started in 48 and arguably 67 occupation was a continuation of them.

This morning our synagogue hosted a community leader from Kibbutz Reim (which the synagogue has formed a partership with), where a number of people were murdered as were many, many of their friends at the neighbouring Nova festival. While it was heartening to hear about all the resources enabling the community to recover, I thought repeatedly about the countless Palestinian people undergoing that level of trauma again and again, for over a year, with nowhere to go for support or safety or recovery.
I'll say this woman from Reim sounded as though she was not unsympathetic towards the Palestinian people and stated that she was unhappy with how then right has claimed 'Zionism', but it's when I mentioned to my other half how I felt hearing the story of the kibbutz and he was having the exact same thought as me.

Must say I always assumed Kibbutz were the nicer side of Zionism
Now I've read more of the history Ive changed my mind
Particularly after establishment of Israeli state the Kibbutz set up then were part military outposts part building the new Labour Zionist state.
Those Kibbutz near what was then new Gaza strip were involved in the border wars post 48 as Palestinians tried to get back to their farms and homes.
These were not the religious hardliners now seen in West Bank. But the secular Zionist equivalents.
The border wars, now largely forgotten, were start of Palestinian resistance.
Good article here by the founder of the Palestinian Land Society of exhibition at Kibbutz built on land taken from Palestinians.

I hate 'these days'...
They're playing right into the hands of antisemites with their knee-jerk hysterical accusations of antisemitism at the slightest critique. If you weaponise something and use it often enough as a cudgel with which to silence dissent, eventually the timeworn go-to statement itself is robbed of its meaning and power. Thus when genuine acts of antisemitism are perpetrated, those who enact them can just point to the constant use of it saying "yeah, but come on, they always say that though, don't they?"...
Do the likes of netanyahu and ben-gvir not see how short-sighted and self-defeating that is?

I don't suppose Bibi will actually be going to Gaza anytime soon, and if he did the local authorities might find it difficult to arrest him. Qatar isn't a member of the ICC so anyone else in the Hamas leadership who might face similar charges should be safe too, unless they make the mistake of accepting the hospitality of the Iranians.

It also highlights the way you can be removed and replaced if you are the wrong sort of Jew:
"Zionism’s demographic engineering is not limited to Palestinians. The story of Givat Amal, a Mizrahi neighborhood in Tel Aviv that was forcibly evicted and demolished in 2021, has many parallels to the story of Umm al-Hiran; there, too, the state compelled a marginalized community to move to a frontier area, never regulated their status or rights to the land, and as soon as that land’s value increased, it expelled the residents out of greed."
And if you are a Bedouin who has been kidnapped by the cunts in Hamas, you are the wrong sort of Palestinian and suffer the same abuse and degregation as the other hostages. Assuming they haven't been murdered there are still three Bedouin being held by Hamas.
If you are a bedouin hostage who escapes, you'll be welcome back but Bibi will still demolish your village.
