President Biden on Monday ripped the “outrageous” arrest warrant application against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that was filed by International Criminal Court chief prosecutor Karim Khan.
“The ICC prosecutor’s application for arrest warrants against Israeli leaders is outrageous,” said Biden, whom anti-Israel protesters have dubbed “Genocide Joe” for his forceful early support of Netanyahu’s invasion of the Gaza Strip.
“And let me be clear: Whatever this prosecutor might imply, there is no equivalence — none — between Israel and Hamas,” added Biden, who traveled to Israel just 11 days after Hamas terrorists started the war on Oct. 7 by murdering about 1,200 people — including 33 Americans — across southern Israel.
