| | + | The Wall Street Journal: Biden broke his promise, Israel exceeded its aid obligations. |
| | + | In an op-ed, the Wall Street Journal details how the International Criminal Court is targeting Israel, warns precedent will be used against the US later on. |
| | + | It published an editorial warning that the International Criminal Court's (ICC) decision to issue arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant could negatively impact all democracies. |
| | + | "This legal assault isn’t only against Israel," the editorial began. "The precedent will harm the ability of all democracies to defend themselves against terror groups or states." |
| | + | That White House may have been able to prevent the arrest warrants from being issued in the first place: In June, the US House passed a bipartisan bill sanctioning the ICC. However, on instructions from US President Joe Biden, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer held up Sanctions in the Senate. |
| | + | "This is the same Sen. Schumer who loves to tell Jewish audiences that he’s their shomer, or guardian, in Congress.: |
| | + | "On Israel, the ICC has twisted the law and the facts," the editorial notes that the ICC prosecutor "changed the course" of his investigation into Israel just "days" after learning that he himself was accused of possible sexual harassment. |
| | + | ICC has jurisdiction only over member states: Israel is not a member state, and Gaza is not a member state - just like the US is not a member state. But the ICC created an entity which it named the "State of Palestine," determined its borders as including Gaza, and then allowed for the Palestinian Authority (PA) to sign for the area, even though the PA has not been involved in Gaza since Hamas took control in 2007. |
| | + | "International 'law' is malleable when it targets Israel," WSJ concluded. |
| | + | It also noted that the IDF "may have achieved the lowest ratio of civilian-to-combatant deaths in the history of urban warfare." |
| | + | The goal of these arrest warrants, then, is "to disarm any Western democracy that is responding to atrocities from terrorists and rogue states. This precedent will be used against the US, which, like Israel, never joined the ICC." |
| | + | Regarding the accusations that Israel is starving Gazans, WSJ points out that the "politicized" arrest warrants do not include MK Benny Gantz, Netanyahu's chief rival for the Prime Minister's Office. |
| | + | The ICC also "conveniently waited" for the lame duck period to issue the arrest warrants, WSJ noted. |
| | + | It added: "The charge of deliberate starvation is absurd. Israel has facilitated the transfer of more than 57,000 aid trucks and 1.1 million tons of aid, even though Hamas’s rampant theft means Israel is provisioning its battlefield enemy, something the law can’t require." |
| | + | "This is why President Biden said on Oct. 18, 2023, that if Hamas steals the aid, 'it will end.' The President broke that promise, and Israel has exceeded its aid obligations." |
| | + | Additionally, the international Famine Review Committee on June 30 concluded that famine is not occurring in Gaza; even the Hamas terror group attributes just 41 deaths out of thousands to have been due to malnutrition. |

| | + | Why one of Australia’s best-known Aboriginal activists is taking a stand on Israel. |
| | + | 'Nova Peris is an Olympic gold medalist, former parliamentarian, and well-known advocate for her people’s equality – and she’s bucking many on the left to support the Jewish state. While Peris has long been a prominent advocate for Aboriginal Australians, the recent conflict in Israel has added a new dimension to her activism. On October 14, 2023 — exactly one week after Hamas terrorists slaughtered 1,200 people in southern Israel and kidnapped 251 to the Gaza Strip — Australia held a referendum to change the country’s constitution. |
| | + | The referendum proposed establishing an Indigenous Voice to Parliament, which would advise on policies affecting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Despite widespread public debate, the referendum was resoundingly defeated, with 60% of Australians voting against it. Peris, as one of the highest-profile faces of the advocacy campaign, was devastated. |
| | + | “I cried for weeks after the referendum, and until today I am still trying to process how 60% of the country could turn their back on Aboriginal people,” Peris told The Times of Israel. |
| | + | As she processed the loss of the historic referendum, Peris turned her attention toward the Jewish state. “I saw some of the imagery that Hamas had recorded [on October 7] and I thought it was unbelievably shocking, beyond evil. So jarring,” she said. |
| | + | “I began to think: How do I sit back comfortably in Australia, where so many people voted in a referendum to silence Aboriginal people and have not seen our struggle which is so real, but where the people who have supported us so strongly are Jewish Australians,” she said, listing prominent Jewish lawyers who have won seminal cases on behalf of Aboriginal land rights such as Jeffrey Sher and Ron Castan. |
| | + | “I thought, all these people that have been there for us, supporting us with litigation, and now Jewish people are being kicked to the curb. I said, let me get my head around what’s happened to our Jewish friends,” said Peris. |
| | + | Peris was horrified by the infamous protest, just two days after October 7, outside the Sydney Opera House, where a mob chanted “F#ck the Jews” and burned an Israeli flag... |
| | + | Since October 7, Jewish people in Australia have experienced an alarming increase in antisemitism, including assaults, graffiti, threats, doxing, and boycotts of Jewish-owned businesses. Peris thinks the police could be doing more.' |
| | + | “How do people say that Jews are the colonizers?” she said when reflecting on her trip. “I saw Hebrew written 3,000 years ago in the City of David. Truth is fundamental to [Jewish] existence; I couldn’t sit silent on this in my capacity as someone who has a voice in Australia — particularly as an Indigenous person.” |
| | + | Meeting with the families of hostages, some of whom are still in Gaza, made a big impact on Peris. Peris showed a bracelet that she has worn every day since her trip, more than seven months on. |
