1. #Palestine’s referral is — predictably and justifiably — full of claims concerning #Israel’s criminality. But the referral itself is surprisingly neutral, not purporting to limit the #ICC to investigating #Israeli crimes. https://t.co/YfNJq5PIdp
— Kevin Jon Heller (@kevinjonheller) 22. Mai 2018
Also really worth stressing: The PLO and Abbas now own this #ICC referral and its consequences. They may try to get out of it by later saying they only want(ed) Israeli officials investigated and prosecuted, but they know the possible consequences *very* well. https://t.co/uRbsSwGJWg
