Politicizing the ICC by going after Israel was an enormous failure for the free world. Big win for Russia. The ICC was able to legitimately go after Putin, and had some practical impact on his travels. Going after Israel for aburd charges of genocide is both effective at harassing Jews, while also helping solve Putin's travel problems. No surprise that the ICC has Russian judges and staff who went along with this nonsense... Anyway, regrettable, Hungary is doing the right thing here. As is the US by sanctioning the ICC.

Hungary has officially voted to withdraw from the International Criminal Court. “Hungarian Parliament has decided to exit the ICC,” said Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó. “We refuse to be part of a politicized body that has lost both its impartiality and credibility.” image

Charging Israel for war crimes has nothing to do with politics! Hungry and USA are the ones playing politics.
War is not inherently genocide. Israel has every right to defeat Hamas, and if Hamas chooses to fight in the middle of a city, Israel gets to flatten it. Israel of course has gone well beyond what it is required to do by giving people living in these cities plenty of opportunities to move to safety.

The first one i get. In war city's get flatten. The second one is just hilarious you should be able to think more critical than that. Anyway these are just poor muslims no one cares. Israel can bomb the shit out of everyone they don't like. No problem because there was an Austrian not willing to take it and we can ride on this until no ones left to say something.

They fucked around, and they found out ❤️🇺🇸🇮🇱 🫡
Nobody say “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine.” Saying “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine” is very offensive to people who think genocide is good. When you say “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine,” you are hurting the feelings of the people who believe it’s fine to bomb every hospital in Gaza. So you must never, ever say “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine.” Who do you think you are, saying “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine”? Don’t you know that by saying “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine” you are causing the people who applaud the deliberate starvation of an entire civilian population to become emotionally upset? Instead of saying “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine,” you should try putting yourself in the shoes of the tender-hearted individuals who support the complete ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people. They’re just minding their own business, merrily celebrating the carpet bombing of a giant concentration camp full of children, and then you come along and ruin their day by saying “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine”? What a cruel and hateful thing that would be. I mean, all they are doing is cheerleading the mutilation, evisceration and incineration of children, and the assassination of journalists and medical workers, and the systematic destruction of civilian infrastructure, and the complete flattening of an entire region whose population they are methodically exterminating via bullets, bombs, starvation and disease. It’s not like they’re doing anything nasty or disgusting like saying offensive words. Offensive words like “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine.” So don’t say “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine.” Under no circumstances should anyone ever say “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine.” And they must certainly never say “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine” as many times as they possibly can, every single day until Palestine is free, and get everyone else to say it constantly as well. Again, the phrase you must avoid saying at all cost is Fuck Israel, Free Palestine. Fuck Israel, Free Palestine.

So was there Hamas in every building? Interesting how even the ‘safe zones’ they designated ended up being bombed

The situation is complex, and the reality is that we might never have all the answers. However, we do know that the Israeli people have just endured a devastating attack akin to their own "9/11 on steroids." This marks a pivotal moment where the gloves have come off, leading to significant repercussions.
It's a combat zone where active fighting was happening. Of course there are going to be Hamas forces in every building. They move around to try to avoid being killed, and in the process of killing them, Israel is going to end up flattening basically every building.
Shame on America and Hungary for helping the Jewish state to commit mass murder. Not only is the ICC right to indict the monster, but it would still be right -- and not at all politicized -- to indict him 50,000 times.
They could make that case in court surely? I mean it contradicts what they say all the time about wanting to take over the whole of Gaza. They can defend that too if they want. This is something that signed up to. So if they are innocent why do they not follow your process they signed up to?
The post war consensus is dead and will not be recussitated. The younger generation doesn't want any part of it on either side. Hope y'all enjoyed the run the last 100 years.
Israel is not "Jews". It's a nation. The ICC is going after sone Israeli politicians. Not even the whole nation. They're not going after Jews in general. It's still going after Putin. It's not always easy to do the right thing, but the ICC is doing their best and they are on track.
