Spying, hacking and intimidation: Israel’s nine-year ‘war’ on the ICC exposed

Exclusive: Investigation reveals how intelligence agencies tried to derail war crimes prosecution, with Netanyahu ‘obsessed’ with intercepts

The Guardian

"In The Hague #Bensouda and her senior staff were alerted by security advisers and via diplomatic channels that 🇮🇱 was monitoring their work. Care was taken not to discuss certain matters in the vicinity of phones."

#Pegasus software was used to steal data from NGO staff phones.

"The multi-agency operation, which dates back to 2015, has seen 🇮🇱’s intelligence community routinely surveil the court’s current chief prosecutor Karim Khan, his predecessor Fatou #Bensouda, and dozens of other #ICC & UN officials."

Fatou #Bensouda was the #ICC Chief #Prosecutor before Karim #Khan.

Among others, #Netanyahu sent Yossi #Cohen (then #Mossad director) on a mission to stop her investigations in the ICC’s #Palestine case. Cohen told Bensouda:

»“You should help us and let us take care of you. You don’t want to be getting into things that could compromise your security or that of your family.”«

No, that's not quoted from a #godfather movie. Read the full stories:

Revealed: Israeli spy chief ‘threatened’ ICC prosecutor over war crimes inquiry

Mossad director Yossi Cohen personally involved in secret plot to pressure Fatou Bensouda to drop Palestine investigation, sources say

The Guardian

"Over time...the tone of Cohen’s contact changed and he began to use a range of tactics, including “threats and manipulation”.... This prompted #Bensouda to inform a small group of senior ICC officials about his behaviour."

Utterly shocking but also unsurprising revelations.

"The Mossad also took a keen interest in #Bensouda’s family members and obtained transcripts of secret recordings of her husband, according to two sources with direct knowledge of the situation. Israeli officials then attempted to use the material to discredit the prosecutor."
PALESTINA. L'Aia indagherà per crimini di guerra Israele. Netanyahu: "Antisemita"

La procuratrice Fatou Bensouda ha spiegato che saranno analizzati crimini che si suppone siano stati commessi dal 13 giugno del 2014, in particolare a Gaza. Sotto inchiesta ci sarà anche Hamas per i lanci di razzi sui civili israeliani

I see Trump has enacted the 1875 "Called It" Clause, likely relying on the "No Take-Backsies" Amendment enacted by the Senate during the Hoover Administration.
