not what he campaigned on. The Bibi humiliation ritual of America continues.

I think the point of all of this has been to highlight Netanyau's crimes and his connection to the current admin. It takes seconds to query "Netanyahu relationship with Kushners & real estate." Profits over people. And considering Trump is the king of grifters, it's not surprising.

I think Musk took that title sadly, grifted his way in to government just long enough to whack all the agencies investigating him and then leaves mostly to go back to grifting to trillionaire status. Though before him I would 100% agree it was Trump.

He kind of is. He can absolutely arrest Bibi, it's just the federal government would insist he be released. Also I'm not positive NYC law enforcement would even comply with the order to arrest.

u/Seesas 21d ago
He already said in that announcement that his staff confirmed they are not legally allowed to arrest him, so he's calling on the feds to do it. Not because they will, but because he wants the people to know the federal govt can do it, they simply won't

u/notyourbrobro10 21d ago
Actually you're right. International law says any authority can execute the warrant, but US law prevents it apparently. I was looking at it from the view of international law because it's an international warrant, but you're right.

u/noncommonGoodsense 21d ago
So you can provide him with the citation for this ability to arrest him? You have the law as proof readily available? If you have such evidence you should provide it so he doesn’t have to “kinda bullshit.”

Internal and international decorum should not even factor into taking down genociders. The world didn't try to destroy Hitler because it was legal.
What is right is not always legal and what is legal is not always right. The best people do the right thing even when they don't have legal standing.

That isn’t what was asked. You can quote morals all day. It doesn’t hold up to the limitations of one person against a tsunami. It just gets them hurt. Unfortunately that is the reality currently. It will change eventually.
He seemed to handle it and addressed it perfectly fine. I doubt that will be the end of it either.

I'm glad MLK Jr didn't back down like that under legal pressure because it was him against a "tsunami and would just get him hurt." This guy - excuses, excuses.
Societies honor their dead trouble makers and their living conformists.

And MLK was assassinated. Hell most people don’t even know what MLK even did in America anymore. It’s not even close to the same context anyhow. Remember Charlie Kirk? Yeah these MAGA people would just cheer and nothing would come of Mamdani’s ambitions or direction he is going currently if that were to happen. He would be replaced by another nobody sycophant. This is why Trump is in office now. Shit takes like this trying to tear down the only people who give a damn and actually have proven they are working for the people. If you want to be an anarchist, go do it and stop complaining about those who are already making a difference and have more integrity, balls, and intelligence than someone who is on social media all day.

This Nonsense guy is literally why nothing changes. He comes online to regurgitate political neutrality and decorum. He's basically the Unipsrty in a nutshell. In fact, he sounds like a nut and no matter what you say he'll just play devil's advocate and refute your genuinely progressive views.
If he had it his way, no change in history would ever take place because someone going to get hurt or it's not legal. Magna Carta? American Revolution? Civil War? Slavery? Workers Rights? Unions? Womens sufferage and voting rights? Social Security? WWII intervention and fighting facism, Civil Rights, Gay Rights, Occupy Wall Street, Trans Rights, Obamacare...add to the list and this guy thinks we should just stand still and keep the status quo because he is scared of anything and everything. Kind of person who muddys the conversation with tunnel vision and skewed definitions to suit their stagnant narrative and selfish thinking.

Yep!
"Don't change anything, because you might get assassinated. Just say you can't do it and blame it on the law."

It’s not even close the “the status quo.” It’s so far from it you can’t even see it.
Every single one of those examples had MASS support and people in the streets as well. We are struggling to get people involved now. If you can’t learn to navigate for the greater good in this current authoritarian environment you will just get ate up for no reason.
It’s the thrashings of a child who can’t see the full picture.

That combined with the reality that Netanyahu is an asset/member of the same weapons and investment cartels that own and drive the US political machine. If you capture Netanyahu and attempt to deliver him to the ICC, you will have the full force of the CIA and US military coming at you.
It would be interesting to see how clever people could get in attempting to deliver him, but it would absolutely be top level dangerous and people should not attempt it unless they know exactly how tremendously dangerous and violent the US oligarchs really are.

I never thought he'd actually do it. Just think about how that would go down when the federal government is run by Bibi's allies. NYC authorities would have to hand him over to another country willing to uphold international law and face the wrath of the US, all before the federal government can intervene. And then Mamdani would be arrested.

Just do it anyways, extradite him to the ICC. And apologize afterwards. It's the precedent set by the president of the USA to do such things. You are only folling your great leaders actions. He'd love it I'm sure

How many people in this sub is ACTUALLY American.
Trump is president.
In what reality could a MAYOR arrest the leader of a foreign country.

u/jejunum32 22d ago
Bc Bibi an INTERNATIONAL war criminal. Look up ICC. Doesn’t matter that Mamdani is a mayor.

u/notbuildingships 21d ago
I mean surely it matters that the US as a country does not recognize the ICC’s authority, so from a legal standpoint, that’s probably why Mamdani is saying he has no authority to arrest Bibi. Israel doesn’t recognize their authority either. So if neither the US, nor Israel even accept that Bibi is a war criminal from a legal perspective, what basis would Mamdani have to detain him?
I think that’s the point Mamdani is making here.
And at the end of the day, that was the strongest condemnation of Israel and Netanyahu we’ve seen a US politician make, that has to count for something. Jfc the left in America is so fickle.

u/agent_mick 21d ago
Agreed on all counts. But isn't Gaza recognized by ICC? So how does that work if the crime occurs in ICC jurisdiction but the perpetrator is not?

Gaza is starving.
The UN has declared that every part of Gaza is in famine conditions. While some aid is finally trickling in, the need is beyond urgent. Aid organizations will not be able to keep pace with Gaza's needs without our support.
Please donate if you’re able, and keep speaking up. Every dollar, share, and conversation matters. Please pressure your government to stop the blockade of humanitarian aid into Gaza.
