"Benjamin Netanyahu is Polish. His last name is Mileikowsky. His family is from Poland. He is not indigenous to the Middle East. He is not from there. His family is from Poland. That is a fact."

~Candace Owens, journalist and political commentator (February 2024)

Netanyahu can still travel, but every journey now exposes the law bending around him... and once that’s visible, it can’t be undone.

Right, so Benjamin Netanyahu is still flying around the world under an ICC arrest warrant... and that’s precisely why his problem has just got much bigger. Because every journey now leaves a record, every overflight exposes a choice, and every silent accommodation tightens the knot he’s stuck in. This isn’t about one trip or one route. It’s about a system that’s stopped working quietly and is now failing openly and in public.

European states are waving him through their airspace while pretending international law still means something, the Court is watching its own authority drain away, and the contrast couldn’t be uglier: the man accused of orchestrating mass civilian harm travels freely, while by comparison the UN rapporteur documenting those crimes can’t even use a credit card or access basic banking because of financial restrictions they’ve had slapped on them for investigating an ally. That isn’t a malfunction. That’s how the system is choosing to operate now - and once that choice is on display, people don’t miss it and it doesn’t quietly go away either.

Right, so a sitting Israeli prime minister is traveling internationally under an active International Criminal Court arrest warrant, adjusting his flight paths, threading European airspace, avoiding some jurisdictions, relying on others, and doing it all in full view, because we can all access the flight path. At the same time, United Nations Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese, documenting the crimes that underpin that warrant is being financially cut off without charge, process, or explanation.

Benjamin Netanyahu can still fly. That’s the surface fact, and plenty of people will stop there and kick off about it, justifiably so in my view. But the mistake is thinking that freedom of movement equals stability or success.

Benjamin Netanyahu's continued international travel under an international criminal court arrest warrant highlights a significant shift in world news. Each journey now presents challenges as European states reportedly allow passage despite the warrant, revealing a breakdown in the system that previously allowed such travel without public scrutiny. This situation offers legal insights into the complexities of justice and international law in the middle east.

ABOUT ME:

Hi, I'm Damien Willey. I'm a former welder, but now I'm a writer, blogger, vlogger and presenter and interviewer with Socialist Telly (Please do go and visit what we all get up to on: https://www.youtube.com/c/SocialistTelly

I'm an unpaid carer for my disabled wife and daughter and as such we know all too well the difficulties that are associated with that living in Tory Britain - both blue Tories and red ones - and I personally believe the answer lies in socialism.

This channel, along with my other social media act as outlets to push back against that, to demand better of our politicians and leaders, to pull apart the media spin that supports them and the way the UK is run and to give a voice, loud as mine is, to the voiceless.
