Foreign Office staff told to consider resigning after challenging UK policy on Gaza
I'm no lawyer, but if the law allows for the continued sale of weapons to a government when there is an active arrest warrant for the leader of said government, for misuse of those weapons - then the law is broken.
And it's not just any arrest warrant - the warrant is issued by the ICC, and the UK is a state party to the Rome Accord, which is the treaty that gives the ICC authority.
I didn't know all that, I went and looked it up for this comment. The Wikipedia page was interesting reading.
Alright, I’m not crazy; I swore there was, in fact, a warrant issued for Bibi by the ICC, which is the correct way to handle this. (Honestly, with that and the warrant for Duterte both out, this is gonna show if the ICC still has any teeth. We need to know if they can still be relied on.)
