As New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani calls on President Donald Trump to arrest Benjamin Netanyahu, the world must confront a painful question: Why does impunity continue despite mounting evidence and international concern over Israel's conduct in Gaza?
When a respected Holocaust and genocide scholar warns that a horrific genocide continues be unfolding, the warning should not be dismissed because it is politically inconvenient. The lessons of history demand that credible allegations of genocide and war crimes be investigated impartially, regardless of the nation or leader involved.
If Benjamin Netanyahu, who faces allegations of war crimes, enters the United States, the federal government should fulfill any applicable legal obligations and ensure that no one is above the law. International justice has meaning only if it is applied consistently, without fear or political favoritism.
History will judge not only those who commit atrocities, but also those who remain silent. Accountability, justice, and the protection of innocent civilians must come before politics. Selective justice is not justice at all.
