Britain: ICC Has No Jurisdiction to Investigate Israel
(Jewish News-UK) Justin Cohen - Prime Minister Boris Johnson wrote in a letter to Conservative Friends of Israel: "We oppose the ICC's investigation into war crimes in Palestine. We do not accept that the ICC has jurisdiction in this instance, given that Israel is not a party to the Statute of Rome and Palestine is not a sovereign state. This investigation gives the impression of being a partial and prejudicial attack on a friend and ally of the UK's."
