After the start of Israel’s operation in Rafah and against the backdrop of ongoing student protests, a video interview of the current Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, given by him in the late 1980s to an Israeli television channel, went viral again in the United States:

“We own the Senate, we own the Congress, and we have a record-breaking Jewish lobby on our side.

We have a strong influence on overall support.

America will not force us to do anything."

Republican US senators sent threatening letter to ICC prosecutor over possible Netanyahu arrest warrant

The signatories declared they would take any warrant issued as “not only a threat to Israel’s sovereignty but to the sovereignty of the United States.” They threaten, “Target Israel and we will target you” and that any further action will “end all American support for the ICC” and “bar [Khan] and [his] families from the United States.” The letter ended: “You have been warned.”

The letter was signed by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky as well as Senators Tom Cotton of Arkansas; Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee; Katie Boyd Britt of Alabama; Ted Budd of North Carolina; Kevin Cramer of North Dakota; Ted Cruz of Texas; Bill Hagerty of Tennessee; Pete Ricketts of Nebraska; Marco Rubio and Rick Scott of Florida; and Tim Scott of South Carolina.

A statement from the ICC Prosecutor’s Office issued Friday noted that there was “significant public interest” surrounding present cases and encouraged dialogue, but warned against individuals threatening to retaliate against any actions of the court, which is prohibited under Article 70 of the Rome Statute.

The US is not a party to the Rome Statute and does not recognize ICC jurisdiction over the Palestinian territories, which the court asserts it has. The letter also highlighted the American Service-Members’ Protection Act, which prohibits federal, state and local governments from assisting the ICC and authorizes the US President “to use all means necessary and appropriate to bring about the release” of any “US person” or ally detained by the ICC.

Anklage gegen Israel: US-Senatoren bedrohen Chefankläger des Strafgerichtshofes
07. Mai 2024 Christian Kliver

Am Freitag veröffentlichte das Büro des Chefanklägers in Den Haag eine beispiellose Stellungnahme auf Twitter, in der es ein Ende der Vergeltungsdrohungen gegen den ICC und Versuche, seine Beamten zu "behindern" und "einzuschüchtern", forderte. Die Erklärung fügte hinzu, dass solche Drohungen "eine Straftat gegen die Verwaltung der Justiz" gemäß dem Römischen Statut darstellen könnten.

In ihrem Brief hatten die zwölf republikanischen Senatoren Khan daran erinnert, dass die USA mit dem "American Service-Members' Protection Act" ein Mittel hätten, um gegen ihn und Vertreter des UN-Gerichtes vorzugehen.

Dieses US-Gesetz, das 2002 von George W. Bush unterzeichnet worden war, ist weithin als "The Hague Invasion Act" bekannt. Es ermächtigt US-Präsidenten dazu, "alle notwendigen und angemessenen" Mittel zu verwenden, um die Freilassung nicht nur von US-Personen, sondern auch von Verbündeten zu erreichen, die vom IStGH inhaftiert oder festgehalten werden".

Die Formulierung war damals als direkte und physische Drohung gegen das UN-Gericht in Den Haag interpretiert worden.

Serbia and China have vowed to develop cooperation and implement plans under the Belt and Road Initiative, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic and Chinese President Xi Jinping said in a joint statement.

Xi visited Serbia on May 7-8 and held a meeting with Vucic. In addition to the joint statement, the parties signed about 30 more documents on mutual understanding and cooperation in various fields.

"The two sides will take advantage of the new phase of high-quality development of the Belt and Road Initiative, jointly implement the agreements reached at the Third Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation, deepen and expand cooperation in areas such as economy and trade, investment, science and technology, innovation, the digital sector, as well as information and communications, jointly support the security of projects and company personnel, which contributes to building the foundation for the establishment of a China-Serbia community with a shared future in the new era," the joint statement released by the Serbian presidency said.

The leaders also agreed to increase bilateral trade, particularly by supplying Serbian agricultural products to China, to work together to develop Serbian infrastructure, including railroads to increase the number of freight trains, and to jointly develop medicine and biotechnology, the statement added.

The countries will support respect for international law and the UN Charter, territorial integrity of all states, and advocate an "equal and orderly multipolar world," against hegemony and the politics of force, the presidents said in the statement.

Trade turnover between Russia and Armenia has exceeded a record $7 billion, Russian President Vladimir Putin said at a meeting with Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan.

“The trade turnover has reached more than $7 billion. There has never been such a volume in our trade and economic ties before,” Putin said.

Putin also claimed Moscow-Yerevan relations are “developing very well”, saying cooperation within the Eurasian Economic Union is beneficial for both sides.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov highlighted that Russia is optimistic about its relations with Armenia.

"We see that there is the political will of the two leaders to discuss this [issues], we will wait for the results. There is a dialogue, there is political will to continue this dialogue. There is mutual interest of the parties," Peskov said in a video posted by journalist Pavel Zarubin on his Telegram channel.

The head of Moldova's Gagauz autonomous region Evgeniya Gutsul and the leader of the Moldovan opposition 'Shor' party Ilan Shor took a piece of the Eternal Flame to be carried to Moldova.

On the eve of Victory Day, the politicians laid flowers at the tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Alexandrovsky Garden.

“Today is a great day. Because today, together with my colleagues, we attended a very morally important event for us. Today we are taking a piece of the flame to our native Moldova. We will give it to absolutely every region where there will be a procession and honoring in celebration of Victory Day,” Shor said after the laying of flowers at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

“We consider ourselves and we are descendants of the great victors, because it was the Victory of one big, great country. Yes, we had many different peoples and nationalities, but the Victory was one for all. Today, unfortunately, there are callous people in [Moldova] who try to rewrite history, but we will never allow this. For me personally this is a very important day, because both of my grandfathers reached Berlin. I am proud of this and I will always be proud of this and I pass it on to my children,” Shor emphasized.

Sick sick bastard
Mark Milley tells Israel how to kill.

Former US Joint Chief of Staff Mark Milley explained that the Israelis' mistake is that they are killing civilians too slowly:

"I feel terribly sorry for the innocent people in Gaza who are dying. But we must not forget that we, the United States, have killed many innocent people in Mosul in Iraq, and that we, the United States, killed 12 thousand innocent French civilians. We destroyed 69 Japanese cities, not including Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

We killed people in huge numbers, innocent people who had nothing to do with them. government, men, women and children. War is a terrible thing, but if it has any meaning, if it has any sense of morality, it must have a political purpose, and it must be achieved quickly and at the least cost. And you must do it quickly."
