Rachel KilleanGUEST
But they've also stretched into folks' families.
Rachel KilleanGUEST
So the former ICC prosecutor, Kareem Khan's ex-wife had her bank account blocked when he tried to send her money back.
Rachel KilleanGUEST
for their kids.
Rachel KilleanGUEST
We have judges and prosecutors who fall outside the Eurozone who aren't able to send money home.
27 MINS LATER
Rachel KilleanGUEST
Yeah, I think you're right.
Rachel KilleanGUEST
That would be a completely logical conclusion.
Rachel KilleanGUEST
I think there's no doubt in anyone's mind that if Kareem Khan had not pursued these arrest warrants, then we wouldn't be in the present situation.
Rachel KilleanGUEST
And so there's some clear messaging there.
Leena GroverHOST
This action followed the imposition of sanctions against 13 ICC judges and prosecutors in retaliation for the ICC investigating American troops and issuing arrest warrants against Israel's prime minister and minister of defense.
Leena GroverHOST
Meanwhile, the Moscow city court convicted in absentia former prosecutor Karim Khan and eight ICC judges in response to ICC arrest warrants issued against Russia's president and commissioner for children's rights.
Leena GroverHOST
This moment tracks with broader trends.
Leena GroverHOST
BDEM reports that 75% of the world's population now lives in autocracies, and democracy in the United States is, quote, deteriorating at unprecedented scale and speed.
Greg StokerHOST
So it applies to European countries, not so much to Global South.
Greg StokerHOST
And when Kareem Khan, the head prosecutor of the ICC, I'll remind everybody, issued a joint... resolution against uh yeah yeah sin war and two other hamas leaders and then uh netanyahu and yoav galant the defense minister he was apparently approached by a western official presumably american i said what are you doing man the icc's for like african warlords and thugs like putin like are you kidding me
Courtney BonneauGUEST
Yeah.
Courtney BonneauGUEST
Sorry about the lights, by the way.
JamieAUDIENCE
This is shameful treatment by the US.
JamieAUDIENCE
I ask what kind of world do we live in where this kind of treatment of a UN rapporteur is allowed? Equally, they have removed Karim Khan, who was head of the ICC, and removed purely because he had the guts and decency to issue international arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Galant for war crimes and crimes against humanity.
JamieAUDIENCE
So for Patrick, I call out for Francesca Albanese and ask the US to leave her alone.
George GallowayHOST
Well, beautifully expressed, and Patrick would be proud of you.
Richard PorterPANELIST

Richard PorterPANELIST
It's about time we got some answers and cleared some of this stuff up.
Brett McGurkGUEST
I got to the White House very early that Saturday morning, looking at all of our intelligence, everything we can possibly see, and by the time I got to the Oval Office, uh, late morning, you know...
Brett McGurkGUEST
When you work for a president, I've worked for four, uh, Bush, Obama, Trump, and Biden, you, you never know what's really on the president's mind.
Brett McGurkGUEST
Uh, and Biden that day, I didn't know at the time, was actually preparing for an interview, Tom, with Rob Hur, the prosecutor, on the issue of classified-
Tom BevanHOST
Mm-hmm
Ben ShapiroSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
[audience cheering]
Ollie AnisfeldHOST
[laughs] And not only that, but, um, you know, even we all, we all know about the ICC and Karim Khan, who basically it's been reported has, uh, tried to, um, use the whole genocide case and pushed it just to, um... as a distraction from, uh, his rape charges.
Ollie AnisfeldHOST
Uh, you know, the whole thing is just incredible.
Ollie AnisfeldHOST
