Impliceer je met het woordje 'slim' dat het bij een van de twee om een politiek gemotiveerde aanvraag gaat? Dat het eigenlijk niet terecht is?

Verder ben ik benieuwd wat Qatar gaat doen. Gaat Qatar de Hamastop beschermen?

Ik baseer mij simpelweg op de dingen die in eerder discussies hier zijn gezegd over deze kwestie. Ga dus niet doen alsof dit om excessief geweld gaat, want dat doet het niet en daar is ook geen sprake van.

“Als internationale gemeenschap moeten we de verantwoordelijkheid nemen ervoor te zorgen dat de daders van de misdrijven begaan tijdens de oorlog in Oekraïne worden vervolgd. Samen moeten we zorgen dat bewijs wordt veilig gesteld, getuigen worden gehoord maar ook traumahulp aan slachtoffers wordt gegeven. Het Oekraïense ​​volk heeft meer dan eens laten zien hoe sterk ze zijn; gehard maar nooit gebroken. Ze verdienen onze steun in het krijgen van gerechtigheid.”

Official tells ToI [Times of Israel]: Charges against Netanyahu, Gallant a ‘baseless blood libel’

After the International Criminal Court prosecutor said he is seeking arrest warrants for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, an Israeli official tells The Times of Israel that Karim Khan’s “baseless blood libel against Israel has crossed a red line in his lawfare efforts against the lone Jewish state and the only democracy in the Middle East.”

“The blood libel will not deter Israel from defending itself and accomplishing all its just war objectives,” says the official.

Netanyahu will issue a video statement later in the day, says the official.

On the basis of evidence collected and examined by my Office

quote:

This occurred through the imposition of a total siege over Gaza that involved completely closing the three border crossing points, Rafah, Kerem Shalom and Erez, from 8 October 2023 for extended periods and then by arbitrarily restricting the transfer of essential supplies – including food and medicine – through the border crossings after they were reopened. The siege also included cutting off cross-border water pipelines from Israel to Gaza – Gazans’ principal source of clean water – for a prolonged period beginning 9 October 2023, and cutting off and hindering electricity supplies from at least 8 October 2023 until today. This took place alongside other attacks on civilians, including those queuing for food; obstruction of aid delivery by humanitarian agencies; and attacks on and killing of aid workers, which forced many agencies to cease or limit their operations in Gaza.

My Office submits that these acts were committed as part of a common plan to use starvation as a method of war and other acts of violence against the Gazan civilian population as a means to eliminate Hamas; (ii) secure the return of the hostages which Hamas has abducted, and (iii) collectively punish the civilian population of Gaza, whom they perceived as a threat to Israel.

The effects of the use of starvation as a method of warfare, together with other attacks and collective punishment against the civilian population of Gaza are acute, visible and widely known, and have been confirmed by multiple witnesses interviewed by my Office, including local and international medical doctors. They include malnutrition, dehydration, profound suffering and an increasing number of deaths among the Palestinian population, including babies, other children, and women.

Famine is present in some areas of Gaza and is imminent in other areas. As UN Secretary-General António Guterres warned more than two months ago, “1.1 million people in Gaza are facing catastrophic hunger – the highest number of people ever recorded – anywhere, anytime” as a result of an “entirely manmade disaster”. Today, my Office seeks to charge two of those most responsible, NETANYAHU and GALLANT, both as co-perpetrators and as superiors pursuant to Articles 25 and 28 of the Rome Statute.

Israel, like all States, has a right to take action to defend its population. That right, however, does not absolve Israel or any State of its obligation to comply with international humanitarian law. Notwithstanding any military goals they may have, the means Israel chose to achieve them in Gaza – namely, intentionally causing death, starvation, great suffering, and serious injury to body or health of the civilian population – are criminal.
