“The biased International Criminal Court in The Hague reached a decision that is pure antisemitism,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Wednesday following the ICC’s announcement that it would launch a full war crimes probe of Israel and the Hamas terrorist group.
President Reuven Rivlin called the move “scandalous” and added that Israel is “proud of its soldiers, our sons and daughters… who keep watch over their land. We will all be on guard to ensure they will not be harmed due to this decision.”
Defense Minister Benny Gantz condemned the ICC for “rewarding terrorism,” adding: “It [the decision] undermines the protection of regional stability and human life.”
