The Trump regime is preparing sweeping sanctions against the International Criminal Court (ICC) in an attempt to destroy the world’s highest criminal court. The move is Donald Trump’s latest move to defend wanted Israeli war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu.

The sanctions would ban a majority of financial transactions with the court, isolating it from the US dollar and — if the global banking system capitulates as expected — from that too. Trump is expected to make a final decision during this week’s UN General Assembly gathering in New York City.

Trump has already abused US financial power to sanction the ICC president, judges and former chief prosecutor Karim Khan, as well as engineering Khan’s removal from his post, despite judges finding no evidence against him in sexual harassment allegations.

The US has previously said it would dismantle the ICC if it did not drop its charges against Netanyahu and other Israelis who have committed crimes against humanity.

LOL you're deluded.
Of the millions of german nazis and nazis in their collaborator countries they executed exactly 23 in the Nurenberg media showtrial.
Operation Paperclip was only one of the programs, there were plenty more saving nazis who had no scientific value.
Among them the worst war criminals like Eichmann or Josef Mengele.
And plenty not even important ones too.
1000's of the worst SS troops were evacuated to Canada and got to live their lives under another name.
The US/UK did everything they could to rehabilitate and whitewash nazis.
And succeeded.
Plenty got high positions post WW2.
Exactly like today, the west loves fascism.
You know nothing of history.

    First of all, Eichmann and Mengele were NOT part of Operation Paperclip. Eichmann was later captured in Argentina, shipped back to Israel, and executed. Mengele got away, unfortunately, and drowned in 1979, but he didn't escape through Paperclip. Perhaps YOU are the one who knows nothing about history. I have a degree in history, and a lifetime of learning, but I'll admit that I am still learning every day.

    Nuremburg tried a relative few, because it mostly focused on the High Command, and most were sentenced to death, but there were thousands of Nazi executions across Germany, following the war. So many Nazis were executed that the actual number is unknown, but it is in the thousands.

    Concentration Camp guards and administration were often executed on the spot. The Dachau prisoner riot is famous. Immediately upon liberation, many prisoners beat guards to death with shovels. Allied soldiers began lining up guards against a wall, and shot them.

    Many other Nazi soldiers across Germany were captured trying to escape, and immediately executed, following a quick military hearing. A favorite method was a short drop hanging, in which the drop isn't long enough to snap the neck, so the person dangles, and slowly strangles to death.

    Some got away with it, MANY did not.

    Maybe you should practice elementary comprehensive reading.
    Read my comment again carefully:

    Operation Paperclip was only one of the programs, there were plenty more saving nazis who had no scientific value.

    So no, I never claimed Eichmann and Mengele were part of Operation Paperclip.

    I won't go in to the rest of your nonsense.
    Others have debunked that abundantly and thoroughly.

    I can only assume your degree in history is from a guilty nazi collaborator country (US/UK or Canada)
    Rife with the same whitewashing and revisionism.
