Belgium would not arrest Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu if he visited the country, according to his Belgian counterpart Bart De Wever. “I don’t think there is any European country that would arrest Netanyahu,” he told VRT’s Terzake talk show on Thursday evening.
“I don’t think there is any European country that would arrest Netanyahu,”
Anyone not complying with the ICC arrest warrant not only deletigimitizes the ICC, but also makes themselves complicit in a genocide. This is literally criminal.
Why should I follow any laws anymore if my leadership takes a massive dump on the most important ones?
It is even more ironic as Belgium has been the battlefield for warring larger nations like Germany and France in Europe. Belgium has a strong incentive to uphold a rules based international order. Undermining the attempts at building such an order instead will be to the detriment of it.
Belgians should take note. The actions of their government now will pave the paths to their descendents being butchered in a future war without rules.
No worries, most of us saw this coming when the asshat got to be pm. The asshat is all talk and no actions, which is why the city he is major of ( antwerp ) has such much issues with the drugs mafia after they got kicked out of rotterdam ( the netherlands ). It made his city the ship dock for european drugs cartels as its the second largest dock in the neighbourhood.
Ive hated the fucker for years, yet here we are.
The problem is he’s the leader of the nva, the centre right party and they have been shouting right shit for years. And now that the political scene in europe is getting more right with every election, he finally got to power. Instantly i saw that what expected was true: all talk, but no actions. He said for years “look at the new pm, he cant even get an agreement who gets what power. If i was in power…”
Ye, it took him nearly a year too lawl
I guess he is sympathetic to genocide do the Belgium’s past endeavors in Africa.
Want to know the worst thing? The Belgian Free State was a notable improvement over when it was the personal property of King Leopold, which is fucking insane when you consider the fact that the Belgian Free State committed a massacre over a fucking socker game.
Actually having seen what some Hispanic folks will do over fucking socker I can come up with at least a handful of things that could reasonably lead to that outcome.
Actually having seen casual racism upvoted on Lemmy I can come up with at least a few ways that liberalism leads to fascism.
They’re all complicit in genocide already. That’s probably part of why they don’t want an investigation.
