Senior Politicians Could Be Prosecuted For Complicity in War Crimes in Gaza

The International Centre of Justice for Palestinians (ICJP) has written a notice of intention to prosecute any UK politicians who are aiding and abetting war crimes in Gaza.

The Labour leadership have been notified that UK politicians may be individually criminally liable for their role in aiding and abetting war crimes and crimes against humanity. The notice has been handed over to Scotland Yard’s War Crimes Unit, who have requested evidence relating to war crimes in the region. 

Last week, the Expose reported that both Keir Starmer, Leader of the Opposition, and Emily Thornberry, Shadow Attorney General, and both human rights lawyers, spoke out in defence of Israel’s withholding of food, water and electricity to civilians in Gaza. They justified this collective punishment based on ‘Israel’s right to defend itself’.

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak Warned

The news of the notice of intention to prosecute, follows reports on Saturday 14th that The International Centre for Justice for Palestinians (ICJP) has also warned Tory PM Rishi Sunak of its intention to prosecute him and other government ministers for their complicity in Israel’s war crimes against the Palestinian people (source)

Conservative MP Crispin Blunt, a director of the group, told Sky News that he does not think his colleagues understand their ‘legal peril’ over their actions.

Israel-Hamas war: UK could be complicit in war crimes if it does not do more to ‘restrain’ Israel, says Conservative MP

Crispin Blunt, who is co-director of a pro-Palestinian group, told Sky News he is not sure his colleagues in Westminster are aware of the “legal peril they are in”.

In a statement about its decision to pursue prosecution, the ICJP said that it had issued Sunak: with a stark warning that UK government officials could be individually liable for their role in aiding and abetting Israeli war crimes.

“Sunak has been issued with the notice of intention to prosecute UK government officials, for their role in providing military, economic and political support to Israel, which has aided Israel’s perpetration of war crimes.” states the ICJP.

“The decision to prosecute comes in response to Israel’s directive to 1.2 million people in Gaza to immediately leave their homes in northern Gaza and move south. This order will result in mass forced displacement which may amount to both a war crime and a crime against humanity.

The siege of Gaza, restricting electricity, food, water and other basic necessities, constitutes collective punishment, which is also a war crime under the Geneva Convention. At the same time, Israel has continued to bombard Gaza with massive and indiscriminate airstrikes, killing over 1,799 people, including 583 children” (source).

MPs Aiding and Abetting War Crimes

The War Crimes and Crimes against Humanity had been seen to be publicly condoned by leader of the UK’s opposition Labour Party, Keir Starmer. In an interview, Starmer had said that Israel had the right to cut off power and cut off water, yet contradicted himself by saying “Everything should be done within International Law.

Additionally, Shadow Attorney General Emily Thornberry, when asked on Newsnight “do you think cutting off food, water and electricity is within international law?” could only reply with what appears to be the permitted answer; “I think that Israel has an absolute right to defend itself against terrorists” and ignored the actual question.

Also finding it hard to answer the questions, shadow foreign secretary, David Lammy showed that he is not allowing the lives of 2.2 million civilians to get in the way of his career.

Senior Politicians Could be Prosecuted

 The ICJP advised that yesterday morning the 16 October 2023-  they issued the three MPs, Keir Starmer, Emily Thornberry and David Lammy with a notice of intention to prosecute UK politicians for their role in aiding and abetting Israel’s perpetration of war crimes. “This remarkable development comes at a time when Scotland Yard’s War Crimes Unit have opened calls for evidence relating to war crimes in the region. In an incredible turn of events, this could lead to senior politicians being prosecuted for war crimes by Scotland Yard. Individuals could also be prosecuted by the International Criminal Court.” they said.

Both politicians are human rights lawyers should be well aware that this argument does not justify collective punishment, which is illegal under international law. ICJP sent a private letter to the Shadow Attorney General last week, urging Labour Party politicians to comply with international law or action would be taken, and now a notice to prosecute has been issued (source).

See More of this letter Here.

Mere hours after ICJP’s announcement on Saturday, Keir Starmer retracted his endorsement of Israel’s total siege on Gaza, illegal under international law. However, he fell short of acknowledging and condemning the war crimes and crimes against humanity already perpetrated. 

David Lammy has also been issued with the notice that Labour politicians could be liable, in his capacity as Shadow Foreign Secretary.

Evidence of War Crimes

As well as the total siege on Gaza, Israel has also issued a directive to 1.2 million people in Gaza to immediately leave their homes in northern Gaza and move south. This order will result in mass forced displacement which may amount to both a war crime and a crime against humanity, according to the ICJP.

They added, “Now that there is clear evidence that war crimes and crimes against humanity have been carried out, and politicians have been formally notified of this, continuation of such support and assistance would mean that any politicians, including senior members of the opposition, could be complicit in the commission of such crimes. This complicity, formally known as ‘aiding and abetting’ war crimes, may mean that UK politicians are held individually criminally liable for breaking international law.

ICJP demands that “the Labour Party leadership and UK politicians more broadly must call for an immediate ceasefire, call for an end to Israel’s illegal siege and evacuation order for North Gaza, condemn Israel’s war crimes and crimes against humanity. They should then press the government into immediate action to do the same.”

Terence, many things that are going on in the world right now are disgusting. It encompasses all human activities and affects the entire population across the globe. It won’t stop, and will only accelerate, until we collectively realise who is our common enemy and come together to dissolve the controlling power structure from the bottom up.

The Palestinian people are our brothers and sisters, so are the many Jews living in Israel. The real tragedy is that both people on both sides are the pawns, and the victims of the nasty games being played by the devil worshippers. They want to drag others into it and cause WWIII. Without total chaos they can’t create the world government. They won’t succeed though. They are failing with each conspiracy and waking more people up. I think the world is truly experiencing a growing epidemic of awakening.

Interesting, Patricia. Since you now decided to reinstate my original comment, I have an inspiring video for you and all your readers to say thank you.

People are awakening everywhere, and the souls operating on low frequencies will be gone with all their evil governments, military, banking system and lies very soon and for good. I for one welcome all these conspiracy projects that they run simultaneously on all fronts because with each and every one of them we are closer to the new world without them.

If you want to make a difference, click on the link to ICJC and send them a comment to proceed with prosecuting officials involved in this massacre of innocent people of Palestine. That’s making your voice heard.

Patricia, thank you for writing this article. I had given up hope that there were any “alternative media” sites who truly focused on unbiased truth, not being controlled opposition.

You are one author/writer who has given me some belief that truth can be brought forward in this insane, Zionist banker-controlled world.

Keep up the good fight. We’re with you!

What does the international law says about a government that has been tipped off and knows an attack is coming but doesn’t warn it’s people – it allows them to be killed so they can use the incident as the excuse for genocide?

It won’t help. Just like in the past when the UN passed resolution after resolution condemning Israel’s violations of human rights and international law.
They never gave a damn.
Now they have an excuse for widespread genocide.
There have already been the first reports (by Human Rights Watch) about the usage of phosphorus bombs.
The muslim population in European countries will ho beserk and that IMHO is exactly what they (TEPTB) had been planning to.

I could right now conduct my own private poll here on the pavement and the outcome would be similar.
And this is Germany, where public opinion has been brainwashed for decades, and which together with the US, is the most favourable regarding Israel.
I am convinced, if I was to ask people anywhere else in the world, like Africa, Asia or Russia, contempt for Israel and Jews would be far more than 56%.
That’s completely out of your own making, you have worked hard for this with decades of non-stop violations of human rights and utter disrespect for international law and the international community.
Nobody likes you, and it’s your own fault.

Contact Report 866

Billy:
And that what I have said is now happening through Hamas and is the actual starting signal for what is coming in the Middle East and in the world that can no longer be stopped. 

Hamas, too, is a murderous organisation, just as any military is, just as Al-Qaeda, which will once again become openly active and will now also be directed against America. 

Everything will unfortunately carry over into the future in an unpleasant way, as I know and have experienced with Sfath, and that will not be able to be changed.

Israel will act as brutally and criminally when weapons are seized and used against Hamas, as the Americans did in Vietnam and the NAZIs in the last world war. 

So Israel too will know no pardon and act in the same way as Hamas, whereby many innocent human beings will also die as a result of Israel’s resistance, and as I have seen together with Sfath, it will even be Israeli citizens, but this will then be mendaciously attributed to Hamas. 

Israel will be just as ruthless in committing murder after murder and in causing destruction and annihilation as Hamas, with the uninvolved population of Palestinians suffering as a result.

Experts agree: The parking lot, not the hospital itself, was struck by a Gaza originated rocket, and bears none of the characteristics of an Israeli air strike.

War crimes? What war crimes? Oh, you mean the slaughtered Jewish infants, grandmothers, dancing teenagers, Holocaust survivors? Those war crimes? How come you’re not calling for Hamas to be prosecuted for those war crimes or their crimes against their own people? Why? Because you lack any moral compass at all. We left Gaza 18 years ago and while Egypt kept its border closed Israel allowed in all the food, medicine and building materials for Gaza to prosper. And what did the good citizens of Gaza do? Well, they turned the strip into a launching pad of death against Jews in Israel. After the heinous crimes against us on Oct. 7 there is a very very strong and deeply held will to extirpate this evil from the face of the earth. For two millenia we Jews have been beaten, murdered, tortured, burned at the stake, and gassed. Until now we were never able to defend ourselves. And until now we have been very very patient with these Islamists who want to kill us all. That’s over. The people of Gaza elected Hamas, supported Hamas and celebrate when Hamas kills Jews. The 30,000 Hamas recruits came from Gazans. So they have made their choice. When Israel withdrew in 2005 they could have turned Gaza into a Mediterranean paradise. Instead it has become the gates to Hell. They have sown the wind and now they will reap the whirlwind.
