New Hope Knesset candidate Zvi Hauser blamed Prime Minister Netanyahu for the International Criminal Court's decision to investigate Israel for alleged war crimes.

"The decision to comply with the Palestinian demand to interrogate Israel for war crimes is shameful and despicable. Netanyahu fell asleep on duty. He failed to identify the threat and its significance. He could have acted against the Palestinians and blocked the move. In the test of results, Netanyahu has achieved a failure which will have a significant affect on Israel's interests," Hauser said.
