International Criminal Court Action Falls Short in Addressing Israeli War Crimes
Black Agenda Radio with Margaret Kimberley
24 May 2024

Black Agenda Radio · International Criminal Court Action Falls Short in Addressing Israeli War Crimes

We are joined by Ajamu Baraka, a Black Agenda Report contributing editor, Chair of the Black Alliance for Peace Coordinating Committee, and a former Green party vice presidential candidate. We will discuss the International Criminal Court, the ICC, and the announcement that Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan is applying for arrest warrants of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant “bear criminal responsibility for a number of international crimes committed since 8 October, including starvation as a weapon of war, murder, intentionally attacking civilians, extermination, persecution and other crimes against humanity." But the ICC is also applying for warrants for Hamas politburo leader Ismail Haniyeh, its Gaza leader Yahya Sinwar and the chief of its military wing Muhammad Deif are responsible for "crimes including extermination, murder, hostage-taking, torture, and rape."
