In an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity, Netanyahu was asked whether he worries that a medical emergency could force his aircraft to land in a country that recognizes the ICC and might seek to arrest him.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cIt scares me in this sense for you,\u201d Hannity said. \u201cYou travel internationally. God forbid you had a medical emergency and you need to land, and you\u2019re about to land in a country that recognizes the ICC. It could complicate things. Do you worry about that?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah, I think about it,\u201d Netanyahu replied. \u201cYou know, we have special forces around. I served with them for five years.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hannity interjected by referring to a possible \u201cPlan B\u201d and said the IDF has a particularly tough reputation.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet\u2019s give them a new task,\u201d Netanyahu responded.<\/p>\n

Netanyahu then denounced the court as part of what he described as a corrupt international system.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s the corruption of the international system,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s an unelected bureaucracy that sits in The Hague that could arrest American soldiers because you don\u2019t recognize this corrupt body any more than we do.\u201d<\/p>\n

He argued that the court could also target U.S. troops fighting alongside Israel against Iran.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey could say that the president of the United States is a war criminal,\u201d Netanyahu said. \u201cThat American soldiers valiantly fighting next to us, shoulder to shoulder against the tyranny in Tehran, that they\u2019re war criminals. They could pick them up.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity, Netanyahu was asked whether he worries that a medical…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":567071,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[85,46,43],"class_list":["post-567070","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-israel","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/567070","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=567070"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/567070\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/567071"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=567070"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=567070"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=567070"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
