Benjamin Netanyahu and Lindsey Graham conspired to use sex claims against ICC prosecutor Karim Khan to delay warrants

US Senator Lindsey Graham and Benjamin Netanyahu conspired to use sexual misconduct allegations against the International Criminal Court's (ICC) chief prosecutor to try and delay the court's arrest warrant for the Israeli prime minister, it has emerged.

The revelation raises further questions about an intensifying intimidation campaign, documented by Middle East Eye last year, which targeted Karim Khan and the ICC over his office's efforts to bring Gaza war crimes prosecutions against Israeli ministers.

The conversation was reported this week by the New York Times and was in recordings taken by British filmmaker Alex Holder, who followed Graham around for three years for a documentary on his relationship with US President Donald Trump and Netanyahu.

The phone call took place on 29 October 2024, just weeks before ICC judges announced they were issuing arrest warrants for Netanyahu and his defence minister Yoav Gallant.

It doesn't seem fair that certain people get to go from natural causes.

Was the Delay worth it War Criminal? Graham is dead and the Zionist Opposition is posed to win the next election and would want a scape goat

Would've been nice to have this report come out before he resigned
