Netanyahu: We are at war. Israel attacked by Hamas.
Cease fire? Fuck those savages. The capitulation is over. Done. These Stone Age adherents will use any cessation in hostilities to rearm and regroup. There is no place for them in the civilized world. Either Lebanon outs terrorists and joins the rest of the world or be resigned to the dustbin of history. Same goes for ANY country quietly harboring death cultists masquerading as religious followers. No more.

Hezbollah spokesman killed in Israeli airstrike in Beirut, official says
The main spokesman for Hezbollah was killed in an Israeli airstrike on central Beirut on Sunday, an official with the militant group said.
The Hezbollah official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to brief the media, told the Associated Press that Mohammed Afif was killed in a strike on the Arab socialist Baath party's office.
Afif, who was the head of media relations for Hezbollah, has been especially visible after Israel's military escalation in September and following the assassination of longtime Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah.
Last month, Afif had hastily wrapped up a press conference in Beirut ahead of Israeli strikes. Israeli warplanes pounded the southern suburbs of Beirut on Sunday after the military warned people to evacuate from several buildings.
The Hezbollah militant group has a strong presence in the area, known as the Dahiyeh, and the strikes came as Lebanese officials are considering a U.S.-brokered cease-fire proposal.
An Associated Press photographer at the scene of Sunday's strike saw four bodies and four wounded people, but there was no official word on the toll. People could be seen fleeing the neighborhood. There was no comment from the Israeli military.
"I was asleep and awoke from the sound of the strike, and people screaming, and cars and gunfire," said Suheil Halabi, who witnessed the strike. "I was startled, honestly. This is the first time I experience it so close." The last Israeli strike in central Beirut was on Oct. 10, when 22 people were killed in strikes on two locations. Hezbollah began firing rockets, missiles and drones into Israel the day after Hamas' Oct. 7, 2023 attack that ignited the war in Gaza. Israel launched retaliatory airstrikes in Lebanon and the conflict steadily escalated, erupting into all-out war in September. Israeli forces invaded Lebanon on Oct. 1.

Protestors supporting Hamas in Gaza stormed the Hart Senate Office Building in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday. The demonstrators, shouting “Free Palestine” and blowing whistles, marched about the building’s first-floor lobby in what was a chaotic scene.The demonstrators unfurled several large banners in front of the flat, black, brutalist sculpture meant to represent five mountains in the center of the Hart building’s lobby. The banners read “Fund Jobs. Not Genocide,” “Fund Education. Not Genocide,” and “Fund Healthcare. Not Genocide.”
Shortly after the banners were unfurled, U.S. Capitol Police officers confiscated the materials. However, protestors who had ascended to other levels of the building began unfurling additional banners, which dropped down the walls of the lobby’s interior. It is unclear whether the U.S. Capitol Police made any arrests, though some protestors in the video of the scene appear to be resisting efforts by the officers to confiscate banners and signs.Late last year, following the October 7 Hamas terrorist attacks against Israel, demonstrators were arrested after attempting to occupy the Cannon House Office Building lobby. This incident was followed up by several other pro-Hamas demonstrations on the National Mall and one in front of Union Station that saw an American flag burned.

Those children need spankings. Officers should grab them, put them over their knees and spank them like the children that they are.

Or better yet, how about some pre-dawn raids on their homes and throwing them in prison for four years without charges?

Only conservatives are insurrectionists under the leftist Democrat administrations… for now. In a couple of months I look forward to seeing big changes for these spoiled little shits. Big changes indeed.

In a blockbuster ruling that shook the military, diplomatic, and legal worlds, the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on Thursday.
The ICC said that there are reasonable grounds to believe that Netanyahu and Gallant committed the war crime of starvation as a method of warfare and the crimes against humanity of murder, persecution, and other humane acts.
While Israel and the US condemned the ruling – which is the first time the court has issued arrests for officials from a democratic state - as biased or going beyond the ICC’s mandate, the EU, France, Ireland, and a number of other countries said they would honor the arrest warrants.
This means that Netanyahu and Gallant will likely be unable to travel to most European countries and a variety of other nations in the ICC’s 120-plus member states.
They will still be able to travel to the US, which is not an ICC member, and various Middle Eastern and other states. There are also some states which have ignored ICC arrest warrants, given that there is no real enforcement mechanism.

Fuck the ICC. Sounds like an elitist globalist thing to me. Let them try to arrest them at their peril.

Netanyahu: 'What in God’s name are they talking about in The Hague?'
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned the ICC's decision to issue arrest warrants and said it was made by 'a rogue prosecutor who is trying to extricate himself from sexual harassment charges, and by biased judges who are motivated by antisemitic sentiments.'
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday published a statement in English condemning the International Criminal Court's decision to issue arrest warrants against him and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.
"The antisemitic decision of the international court in The Hague is a modern Dreyfus trial, and it will end the same way. One hundred and thirty years ago, the French Jewish officer Alfred Dreyfus was falsely accused of treason by a biased French court. In response to these false accusations, the great French writer Émile Zola wrote his monumental essay, J’Accuse. He accused the French court of antisemitic lies against an innocent officer, who was later exonerated of all guilt.
"Now, an international court in The Hague, also headed by a French judge, is repeating this outrageous offense. It is falsely accusing me, the democratically elected prime minister of the State of Israel and Israel’s former defense minister Yoav Gallant, of deliberately targeting civilians, this when we do everything in our power to avoid civilian casualties," Netanyahu opened.
He continued: "We issue millions of text messages, phone calls, leaflets to the citizens of Gaza to get them out of harm's way – while the Hamas terrorists do everything in their power to keep them in harm’s way, including shooting them, using them as human shields.
"The court in The Hague accuses us of a deliberate policy of starvation. This, when we have supplied Gaza with 700,000 tons of food to feed the people of Gaza. That’s 3,200 calories for every man, woman, and child in Gaza. And these supplies are routinely looted by Hamas terrorists, who deprive their people of much-needed food.
"Yet just in the last few weeks, Israel facilitated the vaccination of 97 percent of the people of Gaza against polio. This doesn’t prevent the court from accusing us of genocide.
The Prime Minister wondered: "What in God’s name are they talking about in The Hague?
"The truth is simple. No war is more just than the war that Israel has been waging in Gaza after Hamas attacked us unprovoked, launching the worst massacre against the Jewish people since the Holocaust."
He went on to attack ICC Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan and the judges: "The decision to issue an arrest warrant against me, the democratically elected prime minister of the State of Israel, and our former defense minister was made by a rogue prosecutor who is trying to extricate himself from sexual harassment charges, and by biased judges who are motivated by antisemitic sentiments against the one and only Jewish state.
"These judges did nothing, they did nothing, against the real war crimes committed against the millions who have been murdered or uprooted by the dictatorships in Iran, Syria, and Yemen.
"Instead, they falsely accuse the one democracy in the Middle East, Israel, thereby imperiling the right of all democracies to defend themselves against murderous terrorists and tyrants.
"Nor did the court do anything against the Hamas terrorists who raped our women, beheaded our men, burned babies alive in front of their parents, and kidnapped hundreds of men, women, and children to the underground dungeons of Gaza. They’re still holding 101 hostages, citizens of many lands, including the United States.
"Come to think of it, the court did issue one arrest warrant against Hamas. Now hear, this. They issued an arrest warrant against the corpse of the Hamas arch-terrorist, Muhammad Deif. His corpse. What an absurdity."
Netanyahu declared: "No biased anti-Israel decision in The Hague will prevent the State of Israel from defending its citizens."
He added: "I want to thank our many friends around the world, especially those in the United States, who have condemned this outrage and who have said this decision will have severe consequences for the ICC and those who cooperate with its decision."
The Prime Minister concluded: "Israel does not, Israel will not recognize the validity of this decision. We will continue to do everything we must do to defend our citizens and to defend our state against Iran’s axis of terror. Iran and its terrorist proxies, which include Hamas, Hezbollah the Houthis and others. Our enemies are your enemies, and our victory will be your victory, the victory of civilization over barbarism and tyranny."

Bibi should send a few Mossad to the ICC to demonstrate to them the error of their ways.
The best way to stop something from happening again is to utterly destroy those that do it the first time.

Leftists try to push this shit on Israel, but their end goal is to make it impossible for Western nations to defend themselves against non-state armies, militia and terrorists. Defund the UN. Throw them out. Fuck the ICC.

Report: Trump team already preparing measures against ICC
Hebrew media reports President-Elect's people have begun preparing to impose sanctions on ICC officials responsible for the warrants against Israeli leaders 2 months before Trump's inauguration.
US President Donald Trump's team is already planning punitive measures against the International Criminal Court in The Hague following the decision to issue arrest warrants against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, Kan Reshet Bet reported Friday morning.
While Trump's inauguration is still two months away and will take place on January 20, 2025, the President-Elect is preparing his response to the ICC's move once he takes office. Sources in Washington told the outlet that "the possibility is of imposing personal sanctions not only on the prosecutor or the court - but also on the judges themselves who issued the order." In addition, there are those who argue that the sanctions should also be extended to the family members of those elements in the court responsible for the arrest warrants.
Yesterday, Trump's nominee for National Security Advisor Mike Walz tweeted in response to the ICC announcement, "The ICC has no credibility and these allegations have been refuted by the U.S. government. Israel has lawfully defended its people & borders from genocidal terrorists. You can expect a strong response to the antisemitic bias of the ICC & UN come January."
Senator Lindsey Graham tweeted, "I will be introducing legislation that puts other countries on notice – If you aid and abet the ICC after their action against the State of Israel, you can expect consequences from the United States. Any nation that joins with the ICC after this outrage is a partner in a reckless act that tramples the rule of law."
US House Speaker Mike Johnson tweeted, "The ICC’s decision to target America’s ally, Israel, is antisemitic, reprehensible, and completely ridiculous. It has absolutely no jurisdiction over Israel or the United States, and these illegitimate warrants are an attack on the very concepts of sovereignty and due process."
"The U.S. Senate should vote immediately on the bipartisan Illegitimate Court Counteraction Act, and President Biden should take clear steps to prevent these warrants from being enforced. If Senator Schumer and President Biden do not act now, they will most assuredly invite future lawfare against Israel and the United States. We cannot afford to show weakness," he added.
