➡️ ICYMI: Genocide Joe Switches to Full Denial Mode for His War Criminal Ally Netanyahu

Almost as if Washington knows the ICC’s arrest warrant request makes them complicit in genocide.

The “rules-based order” the West pretends to define itself by is only for America’s enemies and is ridiculed when it applies to the US or its allies.

👀 Food for Thought for Bibi...

Channel 4 News: "The US, Israelis and Britain are saying the ICC does not have jurisdiction. How do they have jurisdiction when Israel isn't a signatory and Palestine isn't a state?"

International Law Expert: "The report declares that Palestine is a state for the purpose of the Rome statute of the ICC. The attacks in Gaza are part of an international armed conflict."

C4: "Does this mean that if an arrest warrant is granted, any country that is a signatory to the ICC would have an obligation arrest Netanyahu if he sets foot in their country?"

Barrister: "Yes."

😂 BBC tries hard to convince viewers that self-described "humble" American tourists in Tbilisi, Georgia ended up amidst the wave of protesters by pure accident - and had “no idea” there were mass demos in the country against the foreign-agent law

For those of you who enjoy fairy tales, the audio is in English.

💸 IMF Urges Against UK Tax Cuts - Warns of £30bn Funding Gap

The UK govt lacks scope for new tax cuts and will struggle to contain spending growth, the IMF has said.

The IMF also cautioned in January against new tax cuts due to the UK’s straitened budgetary circumstances, but Chancellor Jeremy Hunt went ahead anyway and lopped another 2p off national insurance in March.

In Tuesday’s report, the fund said the chancellor should not have lowered national insurance “in light of the medium-term fiscal challenge” facing the UK.

💥DragonFire Laser: UK Defense Sec Brags About State-of-the-Art Weapon

The laser can take out drones and missiles from miles away with pinpoint accuracy, Grant Shapps boasted last month.

The DragonFire is expected to be rolled out by 2027, but Shapps said earlier this year he wanted to "speed up" production and make it available sooner.

It follows a successful trial of the laser, carried out against an aerial target for the first time in January.

The directed energy weapon would also be successful in taking out helicopters, one would imagine.

🤔 ‘Civilised World’ Must Refuse to Arrest Netanyahu – Tel Aviv

Israel has called on the “nations of the civilised world” to oppose the ICC prosecutor’s request for arrest warrants against its leaders and to announce that they would not honor any such warrant.

When asked if PM Netanyahu or Def Min Gallant would travel abroad to ICC-signatory countries in the event arrest warrants are issued, govt spox Tal Heinrich said “let’s wait and see.”

 Gallant described the request for an arrest warrant against him as “despicable and disgusting.”
