Netanyahu brushes off Biden criticism on failed captive deal
Biden acknowledged Netanyahu isn’t doing enough to secure a deal with Hamas to free Israeli captives – an issue that has gained renewed urgency following the recovery of six bodies of abductees.
Asked about Biden’s comments, Netanyahu said the pressure should be applied to Hamas, not Israel, particularly after the deaths.
“And now, after this, we’re asked to show seriousness? We’re asked to make concessions? What message does this send Hamas? It says, kill more hostages,” said Netanyahu.
He said he doesn’t believe Biden or anyone serious about “achieving peace” would ask Israel to make more concessions. “We’ve already made them. Hamas has to make the concession.”
Delusional fanatic, the most dangerous kind. Will Biden finally consider to stop giving this reckless warmonger more weapons? Netanyahu isn't at all interested in achieving peace, only by eliminating everyone else in the ME.
UK arms suspension to Israel may have impact on US
The UK’s partial arms export suspension to Israel is significant in that it may open up an avenue for the US, Israel’s largest ally, to do the same, according to HA Hellyer, a senior associate fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.
“There are laws of this type in the United States but of course, politically, it’s a decision that the Biden administration has been unwilling to take,” Hellyer told Al Jazeera from London. “But the fact that its closest ally internationally, the United Kingdom, has taken this step is significant.”
Hellyer noted the UK’s move is not just political but a legal one as well.
“It’s one that shows awareness for the fact that British law makes it very clear that in the event that the British government has good cause to be concerned about the use of these items being used for war crimes, that it’s obliged to suspend [arms] licences.
“This decision was specifically about Gaza, and what you’ve seen over the last few days in particular, is an escalation in the West Bank and a recognition that Benjamin Netanyahu’s government is going to persist in escalation – not only in the occupied territories but quite likely elsewhere as well.”
The US isn't bothered by international law, nor by their own laws. Biden has already violated and ignored Leahy law, threatened the ICC, ignored the ICJ and undermined the UNSC at every twist and turn when it comes to Israel.
