An indictment of a US official, even if never taken to trial, would be a good first step. It’s not so abstract when you’re charged with war crimes, is it? Of course Biden will never see the inside of an international court… but some smol beans politician like John Fetterman or Matt Gaetz? I think it would affect them more, they would be afraid to leave the US for the rest of their lives.
If any American politician or service member is arrested it triggers the Hague Invasion Act that Bush Jr signed into law
yeah, let them do it. it’d be a hoot.
That act grants the president the power to bypass congress in that specific scenario, but they still have to have the gonads to do it.
If the US were held to this standard, every living American president would be hung
living president
One of the popes exhumed the corpse of his predecessor and tried the corpse for heresy. So I say we start digging up the dead presidents and hang them too.
hey hey LBJ you’re gonna swing from a lamppost today

The US wants to cry about Putin committing war crimes. Maybe they should be a shining beacon of democracy and hold their people accountable, and then other superpowers would be more wary of committing the same acts with their own enemies.
They can and should be next
Haha oh Nina, i dont think its just the whole Israel thing usaian politicians are on the hook for 🎣
Good.
Isn’t there something somewhere that states that if the ICC tries to pursue an American
citizenappointed official, the USA can and will invade The Hague?
Oh wait, there is.
That’s just telling on themselves.deleted by creator
