‘UK did not bomb Belfast to get IRA’, says prosecutor seeking Netanyahu arrest
Britain did not bomb the streets of Ireland to take out the leaders of the IRA, Karim Khan has said as he seeks an arrest warrant for the criminal prime minister of the Jewish colony in Palestine, Benjamin Netanyahu.
The International Criminal Court (ICC) prosecutor said it was not his job to make friends but to put the victims of injustice and war first, regardless of the geopolitical consequences.
Speaking to The Times, he said the court had to “do our job whether we are applauded or condemned.” Mr. Khan has requested arrest warrants for the Israeli prime minister Netanyahu and Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, and three Hamas leaders over alleged war crimes. He says the five men “bear criminal responsibility” for war crimes and crimes against humanity.
However, Israel and its Western Holocaust-perpetrator poodles, like virtuous prostitutes, have reacted furiously to the decision, with senile Irish American Joe Biden calling it “outrageous” and creepy British-Indian Rishi Sunak saying it was “deeply unhelpful”.
‘Drop a 2,000lb bomb on the Falls Road’
Mr. Khan stressed to The Times that Israel had every right to protect its population but that nobody “has a licence to commit war crimes or crimes against humanity”.
He pointed to the UK’s conflict with the IRA as an example of how a government should be restrained in its response to terror attacks. Mr. Khan said: “There were attempts to kill Margaret Thatcher, Airey Neave was blown up, Lord Mountbatten was blown up, there was the Enniskillen attack, we had kneecappings…
“But the British didn’t decide to say, ‘Well, on the Falls Road [the heart of Catholic Belfast] there undoubtedly may be some IRA members and Republican sympathisers, so therefore let’s drop a 2,000-lb bomb on the Falls Road.’ You can’t do that.” The UK sent its occupation army to Northern Ireland, but it did not bomb 80% of Belfast into ruins over the heads of its people, killing women and children. The UK did not call the Catholics of Northern Ireland "human animals".
Since Hamas launched its attack on Israel on Oct 7, Israel has responded with a savagery that has alarmed many of its staunchest allies. Nearly 36,000 Palestinians, mostly civilians, have been killed in Gaza. The ICC has charged Israel with imposing “forced starvation” on the population of Gaza, including denying access to humanitarian support and targeting civilians in a war.
On Friday the International Court of Justice (ICJ) – a UN court which deals with states, not individuals – ruled Israel should stop its military offensive on Rafah in southern Gaza.
The cowardly US and UK had been slowly and superficially hardening their position towards their burdensome outlaw Zionist ally, but following Mr. Khan’s ruling they jumped to Israel’s defense. For decades, they did nothing to rein in the criminal expansionism and racism of the ultra-religious Jewish fundamentalist regime, indeed they encouraged it to continue on its murderous colonial destruction of Palestine by providing it with political cover (with their veto at the Security Council) and lethal military aid.
In a statement, the senile US president said: “Let me be clear: whatever this prosecutor might imply, there is no equivalence – none – between Israel and Hamas. We will always stand with Israel against threats to its security.” But the equivalence has nothing to do with whom does the US support. The US can continue to support Israel out of subservience to the Zionist lobby that never ceased squeezing the entire US body politic by the balls, or perhaps out of an outdated pity at the unrelated Holocaust of 80 years ago, but nothing can change the fact of the terrorist apartheid and racist nature of the Zionist state.
The absurd linkage between, on one hand, Israel's tenuous connection with the Holocaust (i.e. Israel's depiction as a victim of longstanding Christian Western antisemitism, when the fact is that the idea of creating Israel as a British colony long preceded the events of the Holocaust) and its rape of Palestine on the other hand is abhorrent. Being a victim of criminal Nazi and Fascist Europe is not a license to victimize the Palestinian people who are completely innocent of Western Nazism. Israel's now-friendly Europe is still rife with Nazi Fascist movements who hate Jews for who they are, but Palestine and its supporters do not hate Israel for its Jewishness; they hate it because it is a colonial criminal enterprise that has massacred or expelled the indigenous innocent population of Palestine into refugee camps, refuses to let them return to their home, villages and towns, and is bent on exterminating every remaining Palestinian and stealing its historic land and culture.
