ICC Arrest Warrants on Israeli Leaders Impacts the Global Fight Against Terror
(Jerusalem Post) Anne Herzberg interviewed by Mathilda Heller - Anne Herzberg, a human rights expert and the legal adviser to NGO Monitor, responded to the ICC decision Thursday. "There has never been a conflict where a party that was subject to an invasion, missile threats from seven fronts, which has twice faced the largest ballistic missile attacks in history, where 1200 of its citizens were massacred, hundreds of hostages taken, and yet has taken the most extensive measures ever seen to allow for humanitarian aid to enter into enemy territory." "Gallant and Netanyahu have allowed for airdrops, aid trucks, commercial aid, a humanitarian pier, a humanitarian corridor. They have gone above and beyond what the law requires, and yet they were prosecuted for that specifically. And yet, there is no mention of Hamas's role in denying the aid, UNRWA's role in preventing aid, the UN agency's total incompetence in providing aid."
