USA: I AM the Security Council.
Haw haw, they’ll just write a law to exempt themselves.
As an American, please do. Some humility would do us good.
Would that have any result? Couldn’t the US, being on the security council, simply veto whatever resolution was put forward?
I think the ICC is somewhat independent of the security council. Still part of UN I believe… I think they indicted Dick Cheney maybe back in the day.
After looking it up, I believe I am wrong… i think they were considering it though
You’re probably thinking of ICJ here, ICC is a western kangaroo court.
US is not party to the ICC and has a standing policy to invade the Hague and end the eu if the icc detains or tries a single american citizen for any crime.
Nothing would make me happier than the US being held to account by a guy named Petro
2040: the world financial system is dominated by the Petrodollar. No, not that petrodollar
Donald Trump should be brought up on War Crimes. The ICJ should issue a warrant for him
Will never happen, America gives complete protection for its military to commit as many international war crimes and not face punishment under fear of invasion.
Hopefully we can give his ass the boot and then have him tried on the world stage. And this point I’d be down for someone to just whack him, I’m fucking over this shit.
The US isn’t part of the ICC and has veto power in the UN. The US is quite literally above the law and there isn’t anything anyone can really do about it.
Why don’t all states kick them out then or just recombine into a fair new UN, seems necessary.
Because the real power of the US isn’t the ICC exemption or the UN SC veto, but their six thousand nukes and the biggest navy in the world.
