The Geneva International Peace🕊️Research Institute (GIPRI), along with a coalition of academics and legal experts from various European countries, have submitted a legal memorandum to the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Courts⚖️ Karim Khan
They have requested an investigation into European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen for complicity in war crimes and genocide against Palestinian civilians in the occupied Palestinian territories, including the Gaza Strip.
The proponents of the investigation argue that Ursula von der Leyen is responsible for aiding and abetting the commission of these crimes and violations of international humanitarian law.
In a press release, the group stated that the memorandum “documents in detail the fact that Mrs. Ursula von der Leyen personally is criminally responsible and liable for punishment for some of the war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide having been committed (and still being committed) by the Israeli armed forces.”
“Mrs. von der Leyen enjoys no functional immunity before the ICC by virtue of Article 27 of the Rome Statute,” according to the statement.

The prosecutor of the International Criminal Court(ICC)⚖️revealed that he received threats during his investigations against high-ranking Israeli 🇮🇱 officials
A senior figure told him the court was “built for Africa and for thugs like Putin,” and not for Western countries and their allies.
In an interview with CNN, Karim Khan recounted: “I’ve had some elected leaders speak to me and they were very blunt. ‘This court is built for Africa and for thugs like Putin,’ was what one senior leader told me.”
He responded, “We don’t do it like that,” emphasizing that the court should symbolize “the triumph of law over power and brute force: grab what you can, take what you want, do what you will.”
US 🇺🇸 Republican senators🐷have sent a threatening letter to International Criminal Court (ICC) chief prosecutor Karim Khan⚖️warning him against issuing international arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other Israeli officials 🇮🇱
The one-page letter, signed by 12 GOP senators, including Tom Cotton of Arkansas, Florida’s Marco Rubio, and Ted Cruz of Texas, Khan is informed that any attempt by the ICC to hold Netanyahu and his colleagues accountable for their actions in Gaza will be viewed “not only as a threat to Israel’s sovereignty but to the sovereignty of the United States.”
“Target Israel and we will target you,” the senators assert to Khan, adding that they will “sanction your employees and associates, and bar you and your families from the United States.”
The US Senators who signed this Mafia letter have received over $6 million from the Israel lobby.
