Palestinians welcome the I.C.C. warrants against Netanyahu and Gallant. The warrants represent an important diplomatic landmark and may be seen as a sign that international institutions are no longer tools of the West. More than 120 nations are signatories to the court and are committed to carrying out the arrest warrants if the wanted individuals step on their soil. However, compliance with the warrants is not always guaranteed, especially when powerful countries are involved. The warrants could enhance the reputation of international institutions in the non-Western world but may also damage the court and face opposition from the United States.
