Graham rips ‘outrageous’ ICC prosecutor request for Israel arrest warrants

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Monday ripped what he called the “outrageous decision” of the International Criminal Court’s (ICC) prosecutor to seek arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity.

“This outrageous decision is truly a slap in the face to the independent judiciary of Israel, which is renowned for their independence,” Graham said in a statement, vowing to push for sanctions against the ICC.
