Seyed Hamed Amini/ In an unprecedented and historic event, the International Criminal Court in The Hague issued an arrest warrant for Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of the Zionist regime, and Yoav Gallant, the former Minister of Defense of the regime. This action is a glimmer of hope for the world and a turning point in the fight against war crimes; a decision that showed that justice can go beyond the politics of great powers. This verdict is not only a legal document; it is also a cry to defend humanity, to return rights to their rightful owners, and to end the impunity that has hidden the bloody hands of some leaders for decades.

Palestine; Victim of Decades of Oppression and Occupation
Since the occupation of their land, the Palestinian people have lived under the heavy shadow of violence, oppression, and systematic crimes of the Zionist regime. This occupation has plundered not only the Palestinian land, but also their hope and security. From the demolition of homeless homes to the forced displacement of thousands of families; from the relentless bombing of the Gaza Strip to the long-term sieges that have turned life into a continuous hell, the Israeli regime has consistently violated international law.
The massacre of civilians in Gaza and the West Bank, the martyrdom of innocent children, and the occupation of olive groves are just some of the endless crimes that have brought the Palestinian people to their knees. The verdict of the Hague court echoes the voices of those whose only hope, amidst the ruins and under the scorched skies, was justice.

Netanyahu; A Symbol of Destructive Policies and Crimes Against Humanity
Benjamin Netanyahu, a man who was at the helm of the Zionist regime for years, is now a symbol of aggressive policies, genocide, and systematic violations of human rights. He was the architect of projects whose goal was nothing less than the destruction of the Palestinian people; From the expansion of illegal settlements to the siege of Gaza, from the bombing of schools and hospitals to the suppression of peaceful protests.
His arrest warrant by the Hague court is a response to decades of unaccounted crimes. This warrant sends a decisive message to the world: no official, however powerful, will be immune from justice. Netanyahu’s arrest and trial is not only a punishment for him, but also the beginning of the end of the endless era of impunity for war criminals.

US support for Israel; a stumbling block on the path to justice
The United States, which has always been Israel’s greatest supporter, has once again stood against the Hague court’s warrant. Washington has rejected this decision and, with its financial, arms, and diplomatic support, has allowed the Israeli regime to continue its crimes.

This double standard has removed the mask of justice from America’s face. Washington’s unconditional support for Israel has not only legitimized the regime’s crimes, but has also severely undermined America’s credibility as a champion of human rights. Today, more than ever, the world’s public opinion is aware of this fact: America’s foreign policy in the Middle East is designed based on geopolitical interests, not human values.

The European Union; A Test of Integrity and Will
While the European Union welcomed the Hague court’s ruling, it remains to be seen whether its member states will go beyond diplomatic statements. The EU’s foreign policy chief, Josep Borrell, has said that implementing the ruling is a legal obligation. But is Europe ready to stand up to pressure from Zionist lobbies and American threats? History has shown that the union has often backed down from the path of justice at critical junctures.

Practical solutions to ensure justice
To end decades of crimes and ensure justice, the international community must take concrete steps:
1. Arrest and prosecute Netanyahu
All countries, especially members of the International Criminal Court, must take action to execute the arrest warrant for Netanyahu. This step would be a starting point for ending the impunity of criminals.
2. Economic and arms embargo on Israel
Cutting off financial and military aid to Israel deprives the Zionist regime of the means of repression. Targeted sanctions can provide the necessary pressure to change the regime’s aggressive policies.
3. Strengthen support for Palestine
Providing financial, humanitarian, and political aid to the Palestinian people strengthens their resistance to the occupation and keeps their hope for justice alive.
4. Public pressure
People around the world must pressure their governments to implement the court’s ruling and take a firm stand against the Israeli regime. A massive wave of public protests can change the political equation.

Conclusion; Returning to the Path of Humanity and Justice
The Hague Tribunal’s verdict against Benjamin Netanyahu is a symbolic but crucial step towards achieving global justice. This verdict sends a clear message to all war criminals: the era of impunity is over. Netanyahu’s arrest and trial reflects not only the voice of the Palestinian people, but also the voice of all the oppressed people of the world. Now is the time for the international community to stand up for justice, beyond political expediency.
Will the world keep its promises this time? Will justice prevail over politics? The answers to these questions will determine the future of human rights and global peace. The implementation of this verdict could not only be the end of impunity for criminals, but also the beginning of peace, security, and justice in the Middle East and the world.
