U.S. Slams ICC's War Crimes Charges Against Israel; Biden Calls Actions "Outrageous"| WATCH

The U.S. Pentagon and President Biden have strongly condemned the International Criminal Court's (ICC) decision to issue arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.
