In his first major interview since announcing his request arrest warrants for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, and 3 Hamas leaders, International Criminal Court (ICC) Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan dismisses as “nonsense” accusations that he was equating Israel’s actions with those of the terror group.

“I am not saying that Israel with its democracy and its supreme court is akin to Hamas, of course not. I couldn’t be clearer, Israel has every right to protect its population and to get the hostages back. But nobody has a license to commit war crimes or crimes against humanity. The means define us,” Khan tells the UK’s The Sunday Times.

Khan says that when an Israeli official asked him how they were supposed to locate the hostages, he gave the example of Britain and the IRA.

According to the British publication, Khan wears a blue wristband with the words “Bring Them Home,” a demand to return the hostages, as well as a dog tag devoted to the youngest hostage, Kfir Bibas.

“This would break anyone’s heart,” remarked the man.

“Kfir was just nine months old. But there’s no monopoly on suffering. There are Palestinian babies dying and we cannot have double standards.”

Khan claims that if the warrants are issued, it is the world’s job to enforce them.

“If states don’t step up, it has massive implications,” Khan asserts.

“The ICC is their child — I am just the nanny or hired help. They have a choice to look after this child or be responsible for its abandonment.”
