"The US firmly stands with Israel and refuses to allow international bureaucrats to baselessly issue arrest warrants to Israeli leadership for false crimes."
So if Israel is innocent, why are they not allowing independent investigators in Gaza? Or independent media inside Gaza?
You know if you are innocent there isn't anything to hide, and by refusing this, you simply acknowledge your wrong doings.
And now imagine if China had sanctioned ICC prosecutors when they announced Putin's arrest warrant. I wonder what would be the reaction of the US in that particular case?
They know they are complicit in this. They are scared of the precedence this sets. They set up legislation (the hague invasion act) back in 2002 in order to protect elected officials, military personnel, and their allies (specifically named Israel) from persecution from the ICC because they were already doing super shady war crime shit back then.
Arrest all the traitors and warmongering d-bags. Fuck a statute of limitations.
