Poland’s President Andrzej Duda is asking the country’s government to ensure that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu can attend observances marking the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz later this month without the risk of being arrested, a Polish presidential aide said Thursday.

Netanyahu became an internationally wanted suspect after the International Criminal Court, the world’s top war crimes court, issued an arrest warrant for him and others in connection with the 15-month war in Gaza, accusing them of crimes against humanity.

1. I wonder if the irony fairy is going to visit him while he is there.....

And he sees at least some comparison between what he is going in gaza to what the nazi's and their silent sympathizers did.

Nahh. Narcissists don't think that way.

2. The Polish government should arrest him so he can be tried for war crimes.

3. You want him arrested during a very sad rememberance to the 6 million Jews murdered by the Nazi's?

8. Not during the ceremony how about they just

arrest him at the airport after the ceremony, problem solved!

11. Who's going to arrest him?

The US will put pressure on the Polish authorities not to, and I highly doubt the authorities have any intention of doing so, plus you really think his security detail would allow such a move?

So, that being said, again, who will arrest him?

4. If the West doesn't take the ICC seriously

… why should the rest of the world?

If he is not arrested, the ICC should just close up shop.

5. Any Auschwitz ceremony would be better without Netanyahu

Israel has a few million people who could represent it more honourably.

6. BS!!

Like it or not, he is the duly elected leader of Israel and therefore he is the proper figure to represent Israel on this sad remembrance.

7. Isaac Herzog is President of Israel and Head of State, without criminal charges, both domestic and international,

hanging over him. The President is the "proper figure to represent Israel", and is not a far-right conman who has manipulated a national tragedy to his own political ends.

9. Don't know? There's good genocide and then there's bad genocide.

The difference seems to be with who's doing the genodeciding.


Arrest his murdering ass. I don't care if he's arrested before, during or after the remembrance.

10. Netanyahu is the same as Putin. Both ICC-indicted war criminals are causing untold misery for thousands.

The only difference between the two is one of them receives hard-earned American taxpayer dollars.
