Human rights groups have filed an urgent request for an arrest warrant
for Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar during his current visit to
the UK, citing his direct role in war crimes committed in Gaza,
Anadolu news agency reported.
The Global Legal Action Network (GLAN) and the Hind Rajab Foundation
on Wednesday submitted the request to the UK attorney general and
director of public prosecutions, seeking immediate approval to apply
for a warrant at Westminster Magistrates Court.
Why do they waste time with this nonsense? Is it just more performative
symbolism?
Because the Israeli Foreign Minister, while he's still in office, has
diplomatic immunity. Jumping through all the hoops for an expedited warrant
only to have him walk away is kind of a self-own and only makes you look sad
and weak.
