TABNAK, Nov, 25 : “The (ICC) arrest warrant is not enough, Netanyahu's death sentence must be ordered,” Ayatollah Khamenei said during a meeting with members of the Iranian Basij volunteer force on Monday, on the occasion of Basij Week.
The Hague-based International Criminal Court (ICC) has issued arrest warrants against Netanyahu and his ousted war minister Yoav Gallant over their war crimes related to the ongoing Gaza genocide.
Now, the pair are at risk of arrest if they step foot in any of the 124 countries that signed the Rome Statute establishing the ICC.
Referring to Israel's aggression in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon, the Leader said the bombing of houses is not a victory but “a crime”.
The enemy has not won its wars on Gaza and Lebanon, and it will never be able to do so, Ayatollah Khamenei asserted.
The Leader also hailed Basij as the direct opposite of hegemonic powers, which are trying to manipulate national beliefs.
Ayatollah Khamenei said hegemonic powers first try to take away capabilities of nations.
The Leader noted that Imam Khomeini, founder of the Islamic Revolution, created Basij volunteer force as a bulwark against threats.
Basiji is not intimidated by the US and Israeli propaganda, he asserted, adding that some of the prominent Iranian scientists, who were assassinated by the enemy, were members of the volunteer force.
Ayatollah further said that Basij will definitely destroy the Zionist regime. Basij, he emphasized, should strengthen, expand and maintain preparedness.
The leader said the United States' ideal for the region is either submission or chaos, urging the force to counter US duality of dictator ship and anarchy.
