[00:00:00]These are major crimes. These are major crimes.

[00:00:02]Starvation as well. Cuz people are watching at home are going to say, "Well, you didn't charge them with genocide."

[00:00:07]Uh which is obviously very controversial, as you know. But you charged them, just remind us again, war crimes and crimes against humanity. The Israelis say by doing that, >> [snorts] >> they say you deprive them of their right to defend themselves. I'm sure you hear that all the time. What do you say to them?

[00:00:21]Well, it didn't deter certain actions from the Israelis because even after the application for warrants, um many thousands of people have died.

[00:00:30]And uh even after the applications for warrants, hostages were being kept by Hamas individuals. So, um I don't see the connection.

[00:00:40]The truth of the matter is, whatever um the law is the law, and there are elements, and we have to test, collect and test and analyze the evidence, and we did that, and the judges spoke. And the judges are the ones, not Karim Khan, the judges, the independent judges of the ICC, unanimously issued the warrants that they issued.
