Israel is already accusing the ICC of antisemitism for issuing an arrest warrant for Netanyahu.
But, as I explain here for Zeteo, that's BS because a Holocaust survivor/ex-Israeli diplomat was one of the top legal advisers on this ICC arrest warrant, and he strongly agreed with issuing it.

Gotta love a free speech warrior 🤷🏻‍♂️

This appalling situation is not the fault of the current government but it is something they could begin to immediately address by lifting the two-child benefit cap, instantly lifting hundreds of thousands of kids out of poverty overnight.

UK journalists talking about echo chambers when 0.2% of journalists are Black and 2.5% Asian and 51% of the most influential journalists went to private school is a bit of a joke

The plight of women in Florida is dystopian, including the rise of fake abortion clinics offering the untested practice of "abortion reversal." After the failure of the abortion rights referendum in the state, the situation will get worse. Our News Agents film. www.youtube.com/watch?v=df5B...
