The US state department has launched a plan to “disable” and “dismantle” the International Criminal Court (ICC), which includes pressuring other countries to join in and threatening to cut US assistance for those that don’t.

Unless they start writing arrest warrants for American and European leaders for their complicity in the Gaza genocide they are still nothing more than a farce.

Especially American leaders. Kidnapping Maduro, blockading Cuba, there is soooo much.

The moment the ICC puts out an arrest warrant for any American official, they'll have all their IT systems disabled, probably some members arrested, and so on.

The US government already ordered Microsoft to disable all accounts of some ICC officials, just for Netanyahu's arrest warrant.

Perhaps it's better if they just continue persecuting criminals from Asia and Africa, instead of collapsing entirely. This way is far from fair or just, but at least some criminals get punished.

As long as USA, Russia, and Israel exist, this is the best we can hope for, unfortunately.
