Ooo. Scary.
Threatening the prosecutors’ families is a typically classy move from the GOP.
They learned it from their daddy Trump.
Fuck the GOP
Please don’t. Or at least use a condom.
We don’t need mini-GOP running around.
Just fuck them with a cactus. Without lube. Problem solved.
Poor cactus.
Target deez nutz. They both found evidence of genocide and spoken words that imply intent that would make compelling evidence during the trial.
the icc also directed the israeli government to fucking stop the bad shit and they have only intensified
Biden would just veto whatev-
Nah I couldn’t even finish the sentence.
He could. But he won’t.
That’s um a bad look even by America in 2002 standards jeez
Ok Europe why the fuck haven’t you prepared for conflict with us‽
enacted August 2, 2002
Of course Bush did it, who else would do something like this (except for Trump maybe)?
There aren’t enough of them to do so.
This is just how the world works tbh. The ICC has no mechanisms for enforcement. They rely on participating countries, because they don’t have an international mandate to do well, anything, without the approval of the international community. There is no world government, or world police
Yes, but this is basically saying “try to enforce the laws we helped write and we invade”
Yeah sorta. But there’s no way to force the US to participate, there’s zero international law that has enforcement mechanisms. In order to pursue an ICC trial, they rely on the armies/police/prosecutors/judges of other nations, and none of those nations are going to risk fucking up their relationship with the US. In this case, the US is literally not beholden to the laws
That’s kind of the point of being a (near) hegemon
Signing a document like this makes it clear you’re an antisemite.
Why does the GOP go against the wishes of Vladimir Putin when it applies to Israel?
Now that the Russian economy is in big trouble, Vlad the war criminal doesn’t have the money to pay them, so they don’t have to comply anymore
Oh no, don’t make an enemy of the most incompetent political organization in American history.
“Incompetent”…
Anyone wanna tell this guy what happened to abortion rights?
They’re totally incompetent at many things, such as governing, but they’re brilliant at brainwashing their followers and causing harm to people at home and around the world. Just like typical fictional supervillains.
Name one other thing they accomplished (flipping SC counts as part of what you mentioned)
They keep winning Presidential elections against the popular will, they gerrymandered districts and restricted voting to guarantee themselves electoral wins, and they stuffed the Supreme Court with extremists who will do their bidding for decades. They’re pretty competent at being obstructive and gaming the system for far-right minority rule.
Republicans standing against justice once again.
TL;DR: Fascists love fascist war criminals
Isnt it a felony to threaten someone or something?
Rules for thee…
first of all, the us isn’t even a member of the icc so you can’t really do squat.
Yeah I think the implication now that they will try and murder them. Thinly veiled threats
The US apparently already put a law in place that if a US soldier is ever tried by the ICC that they would invade the Netherlands and liberate him by force.
We want to be able to commit war crimes and behave like absolute monsters, and we want the same for our friends.
