Lindsey Graham's Stark Warning

In a striking announcement, U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham has issued a dire warning to the United Kingdom and other allied nations regarding their potential involvement in enforcing an International Criminal Court (ICC) arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Graham has made it clear that any assistance provided to the ICC in detaining Netanyahu or former Israeli defense minister Yoav Gallant could lead to severe economic sanctions against those countries.

Escalation of Tensions

The tension escalated after reports surfaced that the UK government might take action against Netanyahu if he enters the country, all based on an ICC warrant for alleged war crimes committed during the conflict in Gaza. Graham, who is closely aligned with former President Donald Trump, openly criticized this potential cooperation with the ICC during an interview on Fox News.

Economic Sanctions Threatened

“If you assist the ICC in enforcing the arrest warrant against Bibi (Netanyahu) and Gallant, I will personally advocate for sanctions on your country,” Graham stated emphatically. He specifically called out the UK, Canada, Germany, and France, asserting they must choose between siding with a “rogue ICC” or standing with the United States.
