Former ICC Chief Prosecutor Fatou Bensouda is currently on a victory tour, as she recounts her heroic defiance of Israeli pressure during her stint at the Court: "It was a risk I was willing to take." A perusal of the extensive documentary record shows, however, that Bensouda served not as the ICC's Chief Prosecutor but as
Thank you for your writing and documenting the darkest deeds of humanity with your succinct razor sharp words and admirable courage, decency and humanity. 🙏❤️
Right on Norman, Bensouda should not be hailed as hero in any regard, given how she herself ignored the plight of Palestinians. Just like her Successor Karim Khan Bensouda deliberately ignored the evidence until it became a bit too big to ignore.
Could it be blackmail? Yes. Could it be careerism? Yes. Did Israel threaten to kill her? Maybe. I agree with your insight. She’s not a hero. She didn’t have the courage.
She claims now she was pressured by “israel” and got no protection from the Dutch government
“Former ICC prosecutor says Mossad chief pressured her to stop investigating Israel war crimes
Fatou Bensouda says she 'felt left alone' and 'unsupported' as the Dutch government failed to protect her during intimidation campaign over Palestine case”
We did our best to hold Bensouda accountable when we filed the brief about the attack on our flotilla in 2010. In her defense. She and her children were threatened by Israel.
Thank you for this important revelation Dr. Finkelstein! That is sad that this Chief Prosecutor is not what she claimed to be, but definitely useful to know. I agree about no free passes for those aiding and abetting genocidal carnage and oppression
Our understanding of the Peleponesian Wars is obscured by time and geographical vastness. Our understanding of the Israeli invasion of Palestine is obscured by intentional action.

No free passes for anyone - no matter who- we need to bring them all to justice.
We need more whistleblowers.

This is a critical point. Pressure by the Zionist Regime is ubiquitous.
Wow. I'm so disappointed that she is not who I assumed she was when I saw her interviewed on Al Jazeera.
I think the Zionists might have de-banked her. It’s a common Zionist practice against people viewed as enemies. Let’s organize to de-bank them.

Thank you Norman, from a human, for humanity's sake, hold her tp account
Thank you Norman!
Thank you Norm, I am inspired by your endurance to continue kicking at the darkness.
I hope you send her a copy!
God damn corruption. Thank you for the vigilance.

indubitably.
