The groundwork for the International Criminal Court case against Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant was laid long before the Gaza genocide through the tireless work of Palestinian human rights organizations.

The ICJ demands Israel cease its Rafah invasion, but compliance is “probably less than zero,” former UN Special Rapporteur Michael Lynk tells Mondoweiss.

Yumna Patel talks to Hassa Ben Imran from Law for Palestine, and Dave Reed speaks with Spencer Ackerman about the “bombshell” ICC indictments of Israeli leaders Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant.

The current American threats to sanction the ICC could spell the death of International Law. Whatever little hope people had for a just international system will disappear.

Airstrikes continue across the Gaza Strip as the Israeli ground invasion continues in Jabalia and Rafah, displacing thousands. Meanwhile, the Israeli army launched a wide-ranging invasion of Jenin refugee camp, killing 12 people.

Trump slapped sanctions on the International Criminal Court and the Biden administration lifted them. Now, the White House will collaborate with a bunch of Republicans to reinstate them, because the ICC is going after Israel.

“I think this is an enormous step forward,” former UN Special Rapporteur Michael Lynk tells Mondoweiss. “Today’s announcement was a long time in coming.”

We, Israelis Against Apartheid, a group of Israeli Jews for decolonization, representing more than 1,500 concerned citizens, call on the ICC to take accelerated action against escalating Israeli war crimes, and the genocide of the Palestinian people.

U.S. Democrats should stop taking insults and lies from Netanyahu lying down, and should start calling Palestinian persecution what it is, apartheid.

Members of the Palestinian Legislative Council in Gaza have lodged a complaint to the International Criminal Court protesting Israeli crimes against humanity resulting from the 17-year-long Gaza siege.
