(New York Times) Karoun Demirjian - The U.S. House of Representatives on Thursday passed legislation that would impose sanctions on officials at the International Criminal Court, in a rebuke of its move to charge top Israeli leaders with war crimes for their offensive against Hamas in Gaza. It was approved in a 243-to-140 vote, with 45 Democrats joining all Republicans. The bill instructs the president to freeze property assets and deny visas to any foreigners who materially or financially contributed to the court's efforts to "investigate, arrest, detain or prosecute a protected person" - defined as all current and former military and government officials of the U.S. and allies that have not consented to the court's jurisdiction, such as Israel. The measure was approved by the House last year but died in the Democratic-led Senate, and is now all but certain to be enacted now that Republicans control both chambers. "The ICC's rogue actions only enable the terrorists who seek to wipe Israel off the map, and they cannot be allowed to stand unchecked," Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.), the majority leader, said this week.2025-01-12 00:00:00Full Article
