Biden condemns ICC for requesting an arrest warrant for Netanyahu

This really pisses me off.

This really pisses me off.

why?

Because Netenyahu should be arrested by the ICC.

Because Netenyahu should be arrested by the ICC.

No , the ICC is a useless organization that would greatly undermine our foreign policy as a whole . Literally every president since WW2 would be charged by the ICC if we recognized their authority so no doing so would be disastrous for our own interests.

I'm not talking about the United States, I'm talking about Israel and Netenyahu.

[Ferguson97]

This is not about Israel . The ICC has tried to investigate multiple American officials before but we made it clear that if they did try to arrest an American official we’d do anything in our power to get them back .

So yes we’d have the same position on all our Allies about this given our own personal position on it

It's kinda funny that you consider yourself a realist on foreign policy when here you're explicitly making the argument that we can't support Netenyahu's arrest because it would make us look like hypocrites if they ever tried to arrest an American and we objected.

[Ferguson97]

The trial was conducted by the victors , not some international court .

The Nuremberg trials were absolutely conducted by an international court. It was literally called the International Military Tribunal.

This is just a stunning level of ignorance I didn't even think was possible.

[Ferguson97]

Charging both sides in a war is insane

Why?

[Ferguson97]

Neither in Hamas’s. In fact, the only reason why Hamas hasn’t been wiped out yet is because the Gazan population is so hellbent on ensuring that they aren’t.

Half of the Gazan population is children.
