do you think anything will come if the ICC arrest warrants?

Immediately? Probably not.

But there is def impact here.

Their (Netanyahu and Gallant's) international mobility just took a massive hit. There are 124 member states that have to abide by the ICC's ruling here. I'm really curious to see which members come forward the quickest.

More importantly I think the impact this is going to have on the broader political landscape is super interesting. Israel doesn't recognize ICC jurisdiction and it's attempt to delegitimize them is gonna hurt relationships with many of the 124 member states that do.

Charles Taylor, Al-Bashir, Karadzic, and Bemba all had warrants issued by the ICC and it took years before anything came of them. So yeah I'm hopeful something will come of this but doubt it'll be anytime soon

BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) — Hungary said Thursday it will begin the procedure of withdrawing from the world’s only permanent global tribunal for war crimes and genocide.

“Hungary will withdraw from the International Criminal Court,” Gergely Gulyás, who is Prime Minister Viktor Orbán chief of staff wrote in a brief statement. “The government will initiate the withdrawal procedure on Thursday, in accordance with the constitutional and international legal framework.”

The announcement came as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrived in the Hungarian capital, Budapest, despite an international arrest warrant against him over his conduct of the war in the Gaza Strip.

Hungary’s government, led by right-wing populist Orbán, extended the invitation to Netanyahu in November after the ICC, based in the Hague, Netherlands, issued the warrant accusing him of crimes against humanity.

(via ICC issues arrest warrants for Israel's Netanyahu, Gallant for alleged Gaza war crimes)

A pre-trial chamber of the International Criminal Court (ICC) on Thursday issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity during the war in Gaza.

It is the first time the ICC has issued arrest warrants against a major U.S. ally, as well as the first time it has issued warrants for the leader of a democratic country.

Antisemitic Decision?

[athena5898]

(RNN) - Palestinian factions welcomed the decision (https://t.me/PalestineResist/69442) of the International Criminal Court to issue arrest warrants for war criminals Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant. The decision was also praised by some European officials, urging its implementation.

🟢 Hamas called the move an "important historical precedent and a correction of a long history of injustice against our people, and a disturbing neglect of the heinous violations they have endured for 76 years under fascist occupation," which came despite obstruction for months by the US administration, "complicit in zionist war crimes." They called on the ICC to expand efforts to include all criminal zionist leaders, ministers, and officers, "who have soaked their hands in the blood of our Palestinian people and committed the most horrific acts of killing, terrorism, and starvation in modern history."

⚫️ Palestinian Islamic Jihad kept its comments brief (https://t.me/PalestineResist/69460), welcoming the decision, but affirming that it came very late.

🔴 The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine also noted that the step was an important, albeit delayed one. They stressed that "this critical decision must not remain theoretical but must be translated into actionable steps on the ground" through a binding resolution enforcing the arrests. They warned against interference by the US and West, and added that, while these charges are significant, they are "minor compared to the extensive crimes they have committed," including genocide, ethnic cleansing, and starvation. They also called for prosecuting all political and military leaders of the occupation, as well as US President Joe Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken due to their deep complicity in the genocide and disregard for ICC rulings, calling the decision a "glimmer of hope."

⚔️ The Popular Resistance Committees called the decision a "victory for the innocent blood shed by these butchers in Palestine and Lebanon," calling for its immediate implementation and stating that the ICC now faces a serious test. "The decision of the International Criminal Court will remain incomplete if all zionist war criminals and the members of the extremist zionist government, led by Netanyahu, Gallant, Ben Gvir, and Smotrich, are not prosecuted."

♦️ The Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine noted that the decision "would not have been achieved without the heroism, steadfastness, and courage of our people on one hand, and, on the other hand, it is a stark testimony to the fascist nature of the occupation state, its genocide, racial discrimination, and ethnic cleansing under Netanyahu's leadership." They too called on the ICC to expand its scope of prosecution to other zionist leaders, calling on other countries to respect the ICC decisions, and warned against American interference.

⚪️ The Mujahideen Movement called it an important, but very late step. Like other factions, they said the decision "must not remain ink on paper" and called for expanding it to all political and military leaders of the zionist entity, as well as its soldiers. They called for "serious action to stop the holocaust waged by Netanyahu's Nazi gang in the Gaza Strip."

⬜️ The Ahrar Movement noted that the decision came despite intense American protection and cover, including through illegal means, calling it a "triumph over the arrogance of the zionist-American lobby. It is a victory for the justice of the Palestinian cause and a prelude to holding zionist war criminals accountable, who have long evaded punishment." They urged for judicial integrity and transparency, and also called for expanding the arrest warrants. They also called for countries to hand over zionist leaders to the ICC.
