Biden is wrong. The ICC prosecutor did NOT equate Hamas and Israel. He charged both Israeli and Hamas officials for their own separate war crimes. Indeed, given the severity of the offenses, it would have been outrageous had he ignored one side’s crimes. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Today, the Government announces it will formally recognise the State of Palestine on May 28th.

Today, we state clearly our unambiguous support for the equal right to security, dignity, and self-determination for the Palestinian and Israeli peoples.

I am dismayed by political attacks in some western countries on the independence of the International Criminal Court. The ICC is doing its job to impartially uphold international justice, regardless of the perpetrator, when countries have failed to do so ohchr.org/en/press-relea…

No one is above international law: no leaders of armed groups, no government officials – elected or not, no military officials. Regardless of the cause they are pursuing, no one is above the law.
