He said, “this decision is a disservice to the Court‘s credibility.”

According to Schallenberg: “The #ICC decision to issue arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant is utterly incomprehensible. International Law is non negotiable and applies everywhere, at all times. But this decision is a disservice to the Court‘s credibility.


“It is absurd to create an equivalence between members of a democratically elected government and the leader of a terrorist organization.”
