The International Criminal Court announced last week it was seeking the arrest of Hamas leaders as well as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The ICC last week announced it would seek the arrest of senior leaders of Hamas, as well as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and one of his senior ministers for alleged war crimes.
And in an email sent last week, SNP MSP John Mason criticised the ICC, claiming it was “not neutral”. He wrote: “Israel is far from perfect but it does have a better human rights standard and is more democratic than many other countries. Former first minister Humza Yousaf was praised for his stance on the issue after his wife’s family were trapped in Gaza during Israeli bombing.
Maree Shepherd, of Show Israel the Red Card, said: “I am extremely shocked and concerned that an elected member of the SNP party could openly claim that international institutions such as the ICC are biased.
