Germany said Wednesday it will abide by an International Criminal Court arrest warrant and detain Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should he step foot on German soil.
The ICC on Monday issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Israel Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on charges of war crimes in its military response to Iranian-backed Hamas' Oct. 7 terrorist attack. The ICC also issued arrest warrants Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, its military leader Muhammad Deif, and its Qatar-based political leader Ismail Haniyeh on charges of war crimes.
A dramatic appeal written in German and English and posted Tuesday on X by Ron Prosor, Israel's ambassador to Germany was rebuffed by the administration of Prime Minister Olaf Scholz, the Jerusalem Post reported.
“This is outrageous!" Prosor wrote. "The German 'Staatsräson' is now being put to the test – no ifs or buts. This contrasts with the weak statements we hear from some institutions and political actors. The public statement that Israel has the right to self-defense loses credibility if our hands are tied as soon as we defend ourselves."

Why in the sam h*ck would any Jew want to step onto German soil?
I don't even know why any Jews live there.
SO if a German government official steps foot in Israel then Israel should find a reason to arrest them.
Germany is a full on Nazi-Commie-Islamic cesspool. Always has been. It’s just they way they are.
Oh, and they are most unhappy grumpy SOB’s.
Germany. Who saw that coming? 🙄
Merkelism declares war on Israel.
Reverting to type, eh?
And Germany thinks gay priests and kiddie porn are just all right with them!
Who died and made them boss?
Has Hitler been reincarnated to run Germany again?
Get me first.
My nation was founded in 962, but I don‘t expect someone like you to know this.
Couldn’t they just make him wear a yellow star or something?
