ICC Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan’s request for arrest warrants against Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant has been mired in attempts to shield Israel from accountability since May, but this soon could change.
The real reason Netanyahu refuses to end the genocidal war on Gaza is because his short-term political interests have perfectly lined up with Zionism’s long-term goal — the ethnic cleansing of Palestine.
Hamas isn’t blocking a ceasefire in Gaza, Israel is. Netanyahu has systematically sabotaged negotiations at every turn, and his current demands for military control over Gaza ensure they will fail.
Hamas demands a plan to implement the original ceasefire deal proposed by the U.S. last July ahead of a new round of negotiations set to start this week.
“Zippo, Zilch, Zero!” Thomas Nides, the former ambassador to Israel, declared when asked if there is any daylight between Kamala Harris and Joe Biden’s support for Israel. But now Harris must navigate a Democratic party split on the issue.
Benjamin Netanyahu’s call for continued support for the Gaza genocide may have received rapturous applause from Congress, but the speech revealed uncertain political terrain for Israel among both Democrats and Republicans.
Michael Arria and Phil Weiss unpack a tumultuous week in U.S. politics as Kamala Harris appears to lock up the Democratic Party nomination for president, and Benjamin Netanyahu makes his case for genocide to the U.S. Congress, to rapturous applause.
Eulogies for Biden’s political career should highlight his true legacy: the destruction of Gaza.
Benjamin Netanyahu addressed a joint meeting of Congress to bolster support for Israel’s genocidal assault on Gaza. About half of the Democrats in Congress skipped the speech where he vowed to continue the attack until “total victory” is met.
Netanyahu ought to be persona non grata in Washington, for his war crimes and nullification of U.S. policy, but the Biden administration is welcoming him with open arms.
