Over 100,000 Signatures on U.K. Petition to Arrest Netanyahu in London By wmw_adminonSeptember 6, 2015 Haaretz — Sept 6, 2015 A petition calling for the arrest of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu when he visits the United Kingdom later this week has gained more than 100,000 signatures, meaning it will technically be considered for debate in the U.K. parliament, the Albawaba News website reported. The petition, which appears on the official government website, reads: “Benjamin Netanyahu is to hold talks in London this September. Under international law he should be arrested for war crimes upon arrival in the U.K for the massacre of over 2000 civilians in 2014.” According to U.K. law, petitions achieving more than 100,000 signatures are considered for debate by parliament. It is not clear, however, if and when a debate will be held. Responding to the petition – also a requirement when the 100,000 signature mark is reached – the U.K. government said that Netanyahu, as a visiting head of state, is “entitled to immunity, which includes inviolability and complete immunity from criminal jurisdiction.” The government “recognize[s] that the conflict in Gaza last year took a terrible toll,” the response continued, but it noted that Israel has the “right to take proportionate action to defend itself, within the boundaries of international humanitarian law.” It went on to condemn Hamas for its “terrorist tactics,” and reiterated that the U.K.’s “priority for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict remains the achievement of a two-state solution, based on 1967 borders.” “We continue to believe that negotiations will be necessary in order to achieve this, and that both parties need to focus on steps that are conducive to peace,” the response said. “The U.K. government will reinforce this message to Mr. Netanyahu during his visit.” Source: http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/1.674770
