Some fantastically enlightening analysis on the politics of #Chad vis-a-vis the current civil war in #Sudan, also with some interesting analysis of #UAE and its support for the #RSF
The #ICC can issue for signatories countries an arrest warrant on #Netanyahu because it has jurisdiction over international crimes committed in #Palestine since 2012
BUT
If #Israel doesn't recognise the #ICC, its territory isn't included in the jurisdiction, and the crimes of Hamas where carried out there, then how can the #ICC issue a legally binding arrest warrant on Hamas leaders?

"If #Israel doesn't recognise the #ICC, its territory isn't included in the jurisdiction,"
That raises a couple of complications.
First, ICC warrants are ineffective, unless the subject of a warrant enters territory in which the warrant is recognised. If the subject of a warrant enters a state that has signed the Rome Statute and enacted complementary & cooperation legislation, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/States_parties_to_the_Rome_Statute then they will be arrested and extradited for trial.
@amnogues@academicchatter@politicalscience@geopolitics@sociology@anthropology Palestine became a signatory of the Rome Statue in 2015. Judiciary agreed that for the intent of the Rome Statute Palestine be recognised as a State. Crimes committed by or to a member of the ICC gives the ICC full jurisdiction to investigate and Khan has done that. This is no different to Putin’s warrant where Ukraine is a member, but Russia is not.
Thank you very much for the screenshot. The paragraph b) is undeniably clear and my question is solved 😎
The #ICC recognises Palestina as a State and, hence, it can issue an arrest warrant on Hamas leaders independently where did they committed the crimes👏
The #ICC can issue for signatories countries an arrest warrant on #Netanyahu because it has jurisdiction over international crimes committed in @Palestine since 2012

If @Israel doesn't recognise the #ICC, its territory isn't included in the jurisdiction, and the crimes of Hamas where carried out there, then how can the #ICC issue a legally binding arrest warrant on Hamas' leader?
From the Republican perspective, this election is not actually about policy or governance. It's about the GOP's project to change the American form of government from democracy to autocracy.
