Israel in the dock? What the International Criminal Court decision means


Listen Later

Welcome to The Times of Israel’s Daily Briefing: Your 15-minute audio update on what’s happening in Israel, the Middle East, and the Jewish world, from Sunday through Thursday.
Today’s panel comprises founding editor David Horovitz and diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman, along with host Amanda Borschel-Dan.
Over the weekend, the International Criminal Court announced that it has jurisdiction to probe Israel. We breakdown the decision and look at its meaning and implications.
While Israel fumes and Palestinians celebrate, our panel asks what a future case brought against Israel at the ICC might look like and analyzes Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's declaration that any investigation would be "pure anti-Semitism."
The United States says it opposes the move, but can it help prevent a probe? And with President Joe Biden now having been in office for 17 days, what does his failure to yet call Netanyahu say?
Finally, we look ahead to tonight's Superbowl and try to find the Jangle (the Jewish angle).
Discussed articles include:
ICC has jurisdiction to probe Israel, Hamas for war crimes, pretrial judges rule
US opposes ICC ruling it has jurisdiction to probe Israel, Hamas for war crimes
Netanyahu: An ICC investigation of Israel would be ‘pure anti-Semitism’
Biden’s first phone calls show where he’s looking — and it’s not at Israel
