Dearborn community leader Osama Siblani: Joe Biden a bigger criminal than Netanyahu, ICC should put him on trial too; I Wish i had authority to arrest Netanyahu.
In a November 21, 2024 interview with Al-Jadeed TV (Lebanon), Dearborn community leader and publisher of the Arab American News Osama Siblani responded to the International Criminal Court's (ICC) arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.
Siblani argued that the ICC should also put U.S. President Joe Biden on trial, calling him a "bigger criminal" than Netanyahu and Gallant, and accusing him of "corrupting the entire world."
Regarding Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud’s statement about arresting Netanyahu if he visits Dearborn, Siblani expressed a desire to have the authority to carry out such an arrest. He noted that while the U.S. cannot act on the ICC's warrants due to not ratifying the Rome Statute, he wished he could arrest Netanyahu.
Siblani has previously expressed support for Hizbullah and Nasrallah at a rally attended by Mayor Hammoud and has also participated in events with Representative Rashida Tlaib.
