Based on the media reports on the Palestinian-Israeli conflict in various countries over the past period of time, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is in a huge whirlpool. He approved the Israeli army's plan to attack Rafah, but Biden clearly ordered that he was not allowed to create a new humanitarian tragedy, although the Iran-Israel conflict temporarily subsided, but the two members of the "Arc of Resistance" Allah and the Houthis are still attacking Israel, and the "anti-war wave" in the United States swept dozens of universities, making Netanyahu angry, at this critical moment, he really can't afford to have an additional ICC arrest warrant.

We all know why the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and others. Since the outbreak of the current round of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the Israeli army has killed 34,000 people in Gaza, including 15,000 children, and the United Nations has given a rather shocking data, saying that in the past four years, all the wars that have broken out on the whole planet combined, including the Russia-Ukraine conflict, have caused fewer child deaths than Israel has caused in just half a year.

Gaza becomes a children's graveyard

Such acts, no matter how whitewashed by the West, are undisputed war crimes and crimes against humanity. Not only is Netanyahu, Israel's current prime minister and commander-in-chief, but Israeli Defense Minister Gallant, and Benny Gantz, another member of the wartime cabinet, are also expected to receive arrest warrants.

This arrest warrant is not very enforceable, but it is extremely humiliating. Judging from the degree to which Israel has attracted hatred in the Middle East, as soon as the arrest warrant is issued, it cannot be ruled out that Iran will take advantage of the visit of these people to forcibly arrest them. That's why Netanyahu was so nervous that Israeli Foreign Minister Katz came out and said: If necessary, we will not leave Israel.

That being said, the problem still has to be solved, and Netanyahu has come up with a solution: shake people. According to the Israeli media, Netanyahu frantically called the White House and asked the United States to put pressure on the International Criminal Court, which stands to reason and is independent of international justice and will not be interfered with by a single country, but unfortunately, the United States is extremely experienced in interfering with international judicial independence and is quite skilled in playing hooligans.

International Criminal Court, The Hague

For example, a few years ago, the International Criminal Court wanted to investigate the "war crimes" committed by the US military during Afghanistan, and before they could do it, the United States immediately revoked the prosecutor's visa, and the US government said that not only these prosecutors could not come to the United States, but their families were not allowed to come, and you should not think about using US dollars in the future, and any individual or institution that dared to help you would be subject to joint sanctions by the US government.

That's right, the United States is so crossy, what about the International Criminal Court, the Americans say they can't investigate, then they can't investigate. Now Netanyahu has been bombarded with phone calls, and the White House has indeed reacted, Biden has come forward to speak, saying that the ICC has no jurisdiction and does not support the investigation, and Mike Johnson, Speaker of the US House of Representatives, has also come out to help.

The United States is not even a member of the International Criminal Court, and it is not the United States that people want to investigate, but the United States can just intervene in a grand manner and let the International Criminal Court not allow it to investigate.
