The Spin

Pro-establishment narrative

It is simply undeniable that the war in Gaza has taken a terrible toll on its population, and the US is committed to alleviating that suffering. Nonetheless, baseless accusations of genocide are unhelpful and only fuel the wider conflict. The only way to assist the Palestinians in Gaza is to find a cease-fire and resolution to this conflict through negotiations.

The Hill

Pro-Israel narrative

The ICC is demonstrating its anti-Israel and antisemitic bias. These warrants create a disgusting equivalence between terrorists and Israeli leaders trying to defend their people from said terrorists. Indeed, the fact that Hamas welcomed the move shows with whom the ICC wants to side. The ICC is a disgrace.

Jerusalem Post

Pro-Palestine narrative

Though the genocide is ongoing, Palestinians have been delivered at least one small victory. Just the mere suggestion that Israeli leaders may face consequences for their actions is enough to elicit a diplomatic campaign by the US to prevent such ethical moves. Israel has committed regular massacres in Gaza in addition to the famine it has created. If it were any other country, there would be no obstructions to the ICC's case.
