And there is a US law on the book if I recall that is commonly referred to as the “Hague Invasion Act”. They’ll literally send troops if the ICC ever tries to take a US politician or high-ranking civil service member into custody.
They call it “American Service-Members’ Protection Act” but thats definitely not what this is. What a disrespect of international law. The big powers have always taken out more right but still. I knew they didn’t accept the ICC but to have such a law passed is ridiculous
That will never happen. If some criminal politician gets caught and hauled to The Hague, that means he probably deserves it, and there will NOT be the political support to go to war with our NATO allies to rescue some PedoCon War Crimes nal Dipshit.
The reaction from the American people is likely to be the opposite - fry the dipshit.
