Rep. Rashida Tlaib, the only Palestinian member of Congress, is calling on the International Criminal Court to issue a warrant for the arrest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after Israeli forces seized Rafah in the Gaza Strip.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., speaks during a demonstration calling for a ceasefire in Gaza, Oct. 18, 2023, near the Capitol in Washington. On Monday, Nov. 6, Tlaib responded to criticisms from fellow Democrats regarding a video she posted Friday, Nov.
“It is now more apparent than ever that we must end all U.S. military funding for the Israeli apartheid regime, and demand that President Biden facilitate an immediate, permanent cease-fire that includes a complete withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza, and the release of all hostages and arbitrarily detained Palestinians,” she said.
He said by targeting Israel, “the ICC would be targeting all democracies because it would be undermining their inherent right to defend themselves against savage terrorism and wanton aggression.”A group of 12 GOP senators wrote a letter on April 24 that threatened the ICC with sanctions if it issued warrants against Israeli officials.
