Karim Khan, the International Criminal Court prosecutor, “deceived and lied” to Washington and London, “undermining the entire court,” says human-rights lawyer Arsen Ostrovsky.

The Arkansas Senator dismissed the allegations of atrocities, calling the charges “antisemitic and politically motivated.”
“He is attacking the one and only Jewish state and trying to handcuff us,” the Israeli prime minister said of Karim Khan.
Israel’s defense minister called the attempt to establish a moral equivalence between Israel and Hamas “despicable.”
“France has been warning for many months of the need for strict compliance with international humanitarian law,” said France’s foreign minister.
