⚠️US sanctions on the ICC effectively puts the US on the side of war criminals at the expense of victims of grave crimes seeking justice. ICC countries should publicly & forcefully support the court for doing the job it was set up to do: ensuring no one is above the law.

USA has never recognised ICC but hasn't interfered when the ICC has pulled up war criminals USA leadership couldn't care less about. The only difference today is that the Israeli Lobby in the USA is the most powerful lobbying group in USA & Trump is just placating AIPAC.
