Mark Ruffalo Calls Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a Murderous Maniac

Actor Mark Ruffalo posted on X, labeling Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a “murderous maniac” and warning that he “will not outrun justice.” Ruffalo said the recent removal of International Criminal Court chief prosecutor Karim Khan does not erase the war‑crimes accusations stemming from the 2024 ICC arrest warrant that linked Netanyahu to atrocities in Gaza, where more than 73,000 people have been reported dead since October 2023.

Ruffalo, a frequent vocal supporter of Palestinian rights, emphasized that the dismissal of Khan – voted out by the ICC Assembly over alleged sexual‑misconduct allegations – cannot shield Netanyahu from accountability. He reiterated that the Gaza conflict has been described by UN agencies and human‑rights groups as a genocide and ethnic cleansing, and urged that history remember the Israeli leader’s actions.
