Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has strongly condemned the International Criminal Court (ICC) prosecutor’s decision to seek arrest warrants against him and his defense minister, labeling the move as absurd and an attempt to target the entire state of Israel. Netanyahu vehemently rejected the comparison made between Israel and the terrorist organization Hamas, stating that it was a complete distortion of reality. He denounced the ICC prosecutor’s actions as a new form of antisemitism. Netanyahu expressed his determination to continue protecting Israel’s citizens, stating that no international pressure or decision would prevent them from defending themselves against those who seek to destroy them.
