Turkey issues genocide arrest warrant against Benjamin Netanyahu

Source: The Guardian

Turkey has issued arrest warrants for alleged genocide against the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, and senior officials within his government.

Among 37 suspects listed were the Israeli defence minister, Israel Katz, the national security minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, and the army chief Lt Gen Eyal Zamir, said a statement from the Istanbul prosecutor’s office, which did not publish the complete list.

Turkey has accused the officials of “genocide and crimes against humanity” which Israel has “perpetrated systematically” in Gaza.

Turkey last year joined South Africa’s case accusing Israel of genocide at the international court of justice.

Considering Turkey was accused of war crimes in Syria in 2019 by HRW and Amnesty International, you've got to be pretty egregious.

Then have Interpol pick him up if he leaves the country. Maybe he will have to go to Russia to see Putin.

Now, if he comes to NY after January it'll get interesting. Zohran has threatened to arrest him.
