Black Agenda Radio · Ajamu Baraka on Human Rights: ICC for Duterte but Not For Netanyahu

Rodrigo Duterte, former president of the Philippines, is now in the Hague, after the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant charging him with crimes committed during his 6 years in office, including his brutal crackdown on those accused of drug crimes. Duterte’s treatment is in contrast to Benjamin Netanyahu and his former defense minister Yoav Gallant, who travel freely all over the world without any fear that ICC arrest warrants issued against them will ever be acted upon. We’re joined by Ajamu Baraka, Black Agenda Report editor and contributor, who is also Director of the new Black Alliance for Peace project, the North South Project for Peoples Centered Human Rights. He provides analysis.
