If he's so upset about being compared to mass murderers he should have not murdered people en masse. It's actually very easy to not do that
I have, completely by accident and with no significant effort on my part, gone 40 years without mass murdering. It almost just happens on its own.
Man, you're lucky. I wasn't paying attention the other day, and accidentally wiped out a family of 30. It's just so easily done.

To avoid that label, he could, like.. not mass murder the people of Gaza.
The bar is really really low
He is a mass murderer.
"Palestinians are not people, therefore it's not murder" - Bibi
No, Bibi. He's not comparing Israel to mass murderers. He's comparing you to mass murderers.
It's like Bernie Sanders said:
“But please, do not insult the intelligence of the American people by attempting to distract us from the immoral and illegal policies of your extremist and racist government. … It is not antisemitic to hold you accountable for your actions.”
Sanders hits back at Netanyahu: ‘It is not antisemitic to hold you accountable’
Yes, I wonder why they could have compared you to mass murderers".

In a bitter personal attack, Mr Netanyahu said Karim Khan, the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC) was one of the "great antisemites in modern times."
I've checked the ICC most wanted list. It's here: https://www.icc-cpi.int/defendants
It's almost all African warlords. Not a big Jewish demographic, if I'm honest. If the leader of Israel can describe the ICC as antisemites, the word literally has no meaning any more.
At this point, if you don't support the genocide and forceful taking of land in Gaza, you're antisemitic.
I just wanted to say that Palestinians and their Canaanite ancestors are Semites as well. So, if we take the phrase antisemitic literally, then the current Israeli government is also antisemitic.

And by comparing to mass murderers I mean correctly stating that we are mass murderers
If it honks like a goose, flaps like a goose and steps like a goose...
In another article, some Hamas guy was outraged because of being put on the same level as the Israeli murderers.

The average mass murderer is a rank amateur compared to Netanyahu
How you can tell it's actual journalism - it says "lambasts" instead of "slams" 😂
Bibi, if you did nothing wrong there's nothing to fear. Just comply, will you?
I've been calling this man a war criminal for almost my entire life and it's good to see the ICC figuring it out
More people need to watch the interviews with former IDF soldiers. They openly talk about doing things to Palestinians in West Bank that are war crimes. They also say they do these things routinely. Even the arrest policy is a war crime because they aren't turned over to the PA, they have to go in front of an Israeli court. If they go in front of a court at all, instead of being indefinitely detained.
Save it for the trial, criminal.
I believe it, but i hate quotes like this. Give me at least a full sentence in quotes.
"I reject with disgust the comparison of the prosecutor in the Hague between democratic Israel and the mass murderers of Hamas,"
He's right, he completely smashed their records, he needs his own medals for his massive achievement in murders and massacres.

Protests were calling for years for Netanyahu to go to The Hague. Is it happening?
No. They would never drag him there but they won't mind trying him in absentia at some point.
No. The ICC never tries anyone in absentia. His arrest warrant, if approved, will stand for all time until he either dies or is arrested. There is no statute of limitations for any ICC charges. This means he is effectively barred from visiting any party to the Rome Statute (124 countries).
It also means he could potentially be arrested in Israel and handed over to the ICC if he loses an election and the new government wants to get rid of him.

Yeah, they aren't mass murderers, they're genociders! Get it right!
Mass murdering too. There's all those aid workers.
Because they are, son
If the shoe fits
Maybe they can get the corruption trial done at the same time they decide whether to hang this despot.
Yeah, jackass. Think about that for a minute before you pop open your idiot mouth.
Has anyone ever known a criminal to go along with and agree they should be punished?
Well, he's not wrong.
Uhh…
