This complete theoretical Worldwide Felony Courtroom (ICC) arrest warrant for Bibi Netanyahu and different prime Jews seems to be a pretend information story. There’s nonetheless no proof that the ICC was ever shifting to do that. There have been rumors, after which Bibi determined to file a video message in English whining about it.
At any time when he does a message in English, he’s ordering American politicians to do his bidding.
Whereas the ICC warrant was possible pretend, the response may be very actual, and it’s psycho.
This letter to the court docket was written by Tom Cotton, and signed by Senators Mitch McConnell, Rick Scott, Tim Scott, Ted Cruz, and Marco Rubio, amongst others. The letter is dated April 26, however solely grew to become public yesterday when it was reported on by the Instances of Israel.
The lunatic tone of the threats is notable: “we are going to goal you,” “[we will] sanction your staff and associates, and bar you and your households from the US,” “you will have been warned.”
The place do Senators get the authorized proper to make these sorts of threats? Isn’t this kind of factor the unique purview of the chief department?
It’s additionally extremely weird that they seek advice from the “genocidal” Xi Jinping. That is apparently a reference to the complicated declare that China is “genociding” Ugyur Moslems. Israel is definitely, brazenly, publicly committing a genocide, and saying as a lot publicly, however they reference a secret underground genocide committing towards terrorists in Jinjiang, for which no proof exists. (If I used to be a Jew-lover, I’d be claiming proper now that “genocide” isn’t a sound idea, and is used to seek advice from wars folks don’t like.)
Extra attention-grabbing than the threats although is the declare {that a} menace to Israel’s sovereignty is a menace to American sovereignty. That’s successfully a declare that Israel is part of the US, or that the US is part of Israel. “Sovereignty” means the power to exist as an unbiased nation, so they’re saying the very existence of the US relies on the existence of Israel. That is an outrageous declare.
This language wouldn’t be used for some other nation. Folks would giggle. Not even in discussing NATO would the US declare a menace to it’s a menace to US sovereignty. As an alternative, they might speak about “safety.”
If the sovereignty of Israel is a prerequisite for the existence of the US, than the sovereignty of Israel is a trigger price devoting each useful resource of the US to defending.
What’s extra outrageous than the declare itself, nonetheless, is that this declare goes unchallenged. The Democrats definitely is not going to problem it. Nor will anybody within the conservative media. We’re required to easily settle for that the US is sure to Israel by sacred oath, and subsequently we are going to do no matter they need us to do, endlessly.
We’re purported to imagine that nobody within the nation has an issue with this. We’ve all consented to provide our very lives to Israel.
