Time for another Libya and Iraq....mmmmm

The ICC burnt their bridges when they remained silent on America's war crime that was the entire Iraq war.

There's only propaganda value in going after Putin now.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

The court said in a statement that Putin “is allegedly responsible for the war crime of unlawful deportation of population (children) and that of unlawful transfer of population (children) from occupied areas of Ukraine to the Russian Federation.”

In addition to other war crimes and crimes against humanity.

Putin should spend the rest of his sorry life in prison or treated like Saddam Hussein.

 

[BackAgain]

It’s meaningless except as a gesture.

But I still approve of the gesture.

 

[blackhawk]

It’s like the resolutions we see from the U.N. done for show. It’s a nice gesture but I don’t see anything coming from it.

 

[Blaster]

How about our war crimes? We did bomb Iraq in a preemptive strike. Should George W Bush be charged with a war crime?

 

[Delldude]

He's supposedly going to attend G20 soon. See how big ICC's balls are.

Don't hold your breath. The heads of states and official delegations have diplomatic immunity.

The US isn't a signatory of the ICC, seems awfully hypocritical to applaud efforts our own country doesn't respect or acknowledge.

 

[easyt65]

The ICC sounds ike the Democrat Party -
Great INTENTIONS, piss-poor RESULTS

How can you say that when it was Russia that invaded Ukraine?

 

[skye]

This is the one who should be arrested!

That's true.

Believe it or not, the three first world powers – United States, Russia, and China – aren’t part of the ICC.

There are othe countries too like Quatar, Irak, Libya.

so....

 

[multivita-man]

It's a gesture that obviously won't result in any arrest, but it's going to be difficult to remove sanctions as long as the head of state is an accused international war criminal. AFAIK, not even Kim Jong Un is an accused war criminal.

 

[multivita-man]

Believe it or not, the three first world powers – United States, Russia, and China – aren’t part of the ICC.

Even better, they are part of the UNSC.

Like I said..............
