How Mossad interference delayed ICC prosecution

 

ICC justice prosecution Israel interference Mossad threats Netanyahu Gallant Gaza genocide lawlessness apartheid war crimes

It’s been 293 days since the International Court of Justice in The Hague ordered Israel to halt all killing and other genocidal acts against the Palestinian people.

And it was 177 days ago that the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant, two of the Israeli leaders directly responsible for the genocide.

But Israel is only accelerating its extermination of Palestinians through continued bombing and starvation and expanding its attack on Lebanon, while the ICC has failed to issue any arrest warrants. 

We speak to Craig Mokhiber about why all paths to accountability for Israel appear to be blocked. We’ll also discuss what a second Trump administration might mean for Palestinians.

Mokhiber is the senior human rights official who resigned from the UN more than a year ago over the world body’s inaction to halt the genocide.
