Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel’s Prime Minister Responds to ICC Arrest Warrant for him

The Prime Minister of the State of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu has responded the arrest warrant issued for him by the International Criminal Court (ICC).

According to the Prime Minister, such order is not only directed against the Prime Minister of Israel and the Minister of Defense, rather it is directed against the entire State of Israel.

Remember that it was reported earlier that the Finance Minister of the State of Israel, Bezalel Smotrich also reacted the arrest warrant issued against him by the International Criminal Court (ICC).

Nigeria News 247 gathered from videos circulating on social media the full statement made by the Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu which reads:

“The absurd and false order of the prosecutor in The Hague is not only directed against the Prime Minister of Israel and the Minister of Defense – it is directed against the entire State of Israel.

It is directed against the IDF soldiers, who are fighting with supreme heroism against the vile Hamas murderers, who attacked us with terrible cruelty on October 7.

Prosecutor in The Hague, with what audacity do you dare compare the monsters of Hamas to the soldiers of the IDF, the most moral army in the world?!

With what audacity you compare between the Hamas that murdered, burned, butchered, raped, and kidnapped our brothers and sisters, and the IDF soldiers who are fighting a just war that is unparalleled in morality that is unmatched.

As the prime minister of Israel, I reject with disgust the Hague prosecutor’s comparison between democratic Israel and the mass murderers of Hamas, Netanyahu said.”
