In February, Trump sanctioned International Criminal Court (ICC) for issuing arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former defense minister
The chief prosecutor, Karim Khan, has lost access to his email; his bank accounts were frozen.
Well that's fucked up, not only does the US not adhere to the ICC's rulings, but now it's also actively sabotaging them.
the ICC doesn't randomly emit arrest warrants, they're always based on proven facts and testimonies, so this is just the US trying to cover up for the genocide in Gaza.
If you've been following what's been going on in the US, you might have noticed that a judge has been incarcerated there simply for not cooperating with immigration enforcement enthusiastically enough.
Fucked up describes the situation pretty accurately, I'd say, ICC or not.
