The decision by the International Criminal Court (ICC) prosecutor to apply for arrest warrants against Israeli leaders will bring shame down on the court and turn it into a farce, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu predicted.

This is a complete distortion of reality," Netanyahu said. "The outrageous decision by the ICC prosecutor, Karim Khan, to seek arrest warrants against the democratically elected leaders of Israel is a moral outrage of histor...
