Same, George. Last night during the CMA Awards, the King himself George Strait was honored with the Willie Nelson Lifetime Achievement Award, which is a prestigious honor that goes to an iconic artist as one of the highest degrees of recognition in country music. Jamey Johnson, Miranda Lambert, Parker McCollum, Chris Stapleton and Lainey Wilson also performed an all-star with some of his biggest hits, and obviously, it was a highlight of the evening. Strait gave a beautiful acceptance speech where he thanked God, his wife, family, team and of course fans, and it was heartwarming to see this legend properly honored for his contributions and important place in country music: https://www.instagram.com/p/DCnll3Ptqpc/ But when he wasn't singing with Stapleton or speaking to the crowd, let's just say... it didn't look like the King of country was loving the whole circus that has become the CMA Awards. A few times during the evening, the camera panned to him, notably during Shaboozey and Bailey Zimmerman's performances, and the look on his face truly says it all. I can only imagine what he was thinking for most of this sh*t show (save for a few truly great performances from the likes of Chris Stapleton, Kacey Musgraves and Ashley McBryde)... and fans took notice online. Obviously, many were loving it because I think a lot of us watching at home felt the same way: George Strait looks like he’s ready to let the cowboy ride away. Me and you both, George ? — Kris Thompson (@krieman18) November 21, 2024 George strait literally about to quit country cause this is such a bullshit “COUNTRY” award show!!

Good thing the King owns his own tequila company, because he needed it last night. George Strait is gonna need a gallon of Código to make it to his own tribute.#CMAawards — Whiskey Riff (@WhiskeyRiff) November 21, 2024

The International Criminal Court announced Thursday that it had issued arrest warrants against Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant, a former Israeli defense minister. The warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant were originally requested in late May by Karim Khan, the ICC’s chief prosecutor. The warrant was issued by a three-judge panel, which agreed with Khan’s assertion that Israel had deprived civilians of basic necessities as a means of waging war. The judges wrote, The Chamber considered that there are reasonable grounds to believe that both individuals intentionally and knowingly deprived the civilian population in Gaza of objects indispensable to their survival, including food, water, and medicine and medical supplies, as well as fuel and electricity. Netanyahu’s office issued a statement in response to the warrant, calling the ICC’s decision “an antisemitic decision” and “equivalent to a modern Dreyfus trial.” Israel’s left-wing President Isaac Herzog, usually at odds with Netanyahu, also criticized the decision, calling it “a dark day for justice [and] humanity.” The ICC also issued an arrest warrant for the senior Hamas commander Mohammad Deif, whom the IDF claims to have killed in a strike in July. Originally, Khan had also requested arrest warrants for two other Hamas leaders Ismail Haniyeh and Yahya Sinwar. These warrants were not granted, as Sinwar was killed in Gaza in October and Haniyeh was assassinated in Tehran in July. It is unlikely that the arrest warrants for either Netanyahu or Gallant will be carried out, as Israel, along with Russia, China, and the United States, is not a signatory to the Rome Statute, the treaty that established the ICC. Nevertheless, Josep Borrell, the top diplomat of the European Union, stated that the ICC’s decision “has to be respected and implemented.” The post ICC Issues Arrest Warrants for Netanyahu, Gallant appeared first on The American Conservative.
