 MICHAEL Gove has called for the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) to be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.

In a column for the Jewish Chronicle, the former Tory MP and minister said “maybe it’s time” for US president Joe Biden and his Foreign Secretary Antony Blinken to “make amends” with Benjamin Netanyahu before they leave office.

The Israeli prime minister was issued an arrest warrant two months ago by the International Criminal Court (ICC) as judges deemed there were “reasonable grounds” to believe he bore “criminal responsibility” for war crimes.

The BBC host and editor of The Spectator wrote: “Words are all very well, but what about something more tangible? Why not nominate the men and women of the IDF for the Nobel Peace Prize?”

Israel has killed more than 46,000 Palestinians during its brutal war on Gaza so far, according to the Gaza Health Ministry.

A further 109,378 have been wounded by the IDF in the ongoing 15-month war.
Outrage is rapidly exhausted these days. I suspect Michael might have been indulging in rather more marching powder than is good for him!
To be fair, I first heard it used when 'Roland Rat' became a face of Channel 4. 🤣
