conducted<\/a><\/span> by The Economist\/YouGov, 49% of respondents supported enforcing an arrest warrant against Netanyahu, while those opposed remained at 27%.<\/p>\nThe poll asked participants whether the US should execute the arrest warrant issued for Netanyahu by the International Criminal Court (ICC).<\/p>\n
While 49% of respondents answered “yes” to the question, 27% said “no.” A further 23% of participants reported being undecided.<\/p>\n
The ICC issued an arrest warrant for Netanyahu in November 2024. The court accuses the Israeli prime minister of using starvation as a method of warfare and committing crimes against humanity, including murder and persecution.<\/p>\n
The indictment also states that the prime minister intentionally directed attacks against the civilian population in Gaza.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Zohran Mamdani, a Democratic candidate for New York City mayor, backed away from a previous pledge to have Netanyahu arrested if the prime minister visits the city for the United Nations General Assembly in the coming months.<\/p>\n
“It is clear that we lack independent legal authority to enforce this arrest warrant. However, the federal government possesses this authority,” Mamdani said in a video published on the social media platform X.<\/p>\n
“I call on them to join the ICC and execute this arrest warrant,” Mamdani added in his statement.<\/p>\n
Israel and the US do not fall under the jurisdiction of the ICC, as neither nation ever ratified the court’s founding treaty.<\/p>\n
However, the ICC stresses that it holds jurisdiction over the Palestinian territories.<\/p>\n
In the same The Economist\/YouGov survey, 47% of respondents expressed the belief that Netanyahu is “guilty of war crimes in Gaza.” While 24% of participants disagreed with this view, 29% stated they were undecided.<\/p>\n
The Economist\/YouGov study was conducted between July 25 and July 27 with 1,559 participants. The margin of error for the study was reported as plus or minus 3.3 percentage points.<\/p>\n
