Johnson urges Biden to intervene in ICC's reported plan for Netanyahu arrest warrant
Fox News
House Speaker Mike Johnson is urging the Biden administration to help block the International Criminal Court from issuing arrest warrants against top Israeli officials.
"If unchallenged by the Biden administration, the ICC could create and assume unprecedented power to issue arrest warrants against American political leaders, American diplomats, and American military personnel, thereby endangering our country's sovereign authority," the speaker said.

"Instead of wrongly targeting Israel, the ICC should pursue charges against Iran and its terror proxies, including Hamas, for engaging in horrific war crimes. The Biden administration must immediately and unequivocally demand that the ICC stand down and the U.S. should use every available tool to prevent such an abomination."
