its relevant because Dick Cheney and George Bush weren't issued warrants for their arrest.


so because two guys got away with war crimes, more people should also get away with war crimes? that logic doesnt make any sense to me

Thats because no one applied that logic, you just inferred it. the point he was getting at is that the ICC selectively applies their scorn.

if i told you white suburban kids get away with drug use, but black kids get arrested, would your response be "well we cant let black kids get away with it"? of course not, you'd point out cops selectively enforce justice.

Do you by any chance have any idea how great of a service Israel is to the US ? American tax payer lol. So you now know what the average American likes and dislikes.not to mention all the benefits for the US coming from Israel. I have a list of American generals saying that to back me up.


What benefits is israel providing the us of a right now? Cause i can definitely list more negatives than positives and dont make me lol by going down the "carrier of the ME" route.

Can you link me an american general saying that the current situation in the ME is benefitting American hegemony? Cause the USS Abraham Lincoln just pulled out of the red sea and the houthis are claiming it as an absolute victory, which is single-handedly the biggest embarrassing L ive ever seen uncle sam recently take.America gains ZERO strategic assets from fighting your war; all it cares about is sunni oil, not shia bullshit.

Nah I’m good.
You’ve convinced me, Israel is of no use nor benefit to the US. The US has absolutely zero interest in Israel and so they support Israel only due to their bloodlust and the jewish lobby which de-facto running the world.

the ICJ is not anti Semitic, maybe if Israel did not kill so many women and children and sang songs about it they would not be in this mess.

I just wonder in how many situations around the world the ICJ interfered.
Since it’s a UN organisation I don’t expect much.

Bosnian Genocide, Gaza and Palestine, Rwanda Genocide, Rohingya Genocide...

The ICJ and ICC Are Distinct:

The ICJ resolves disputes between states or provides advisory opinions on legal questions.
The ICC prosecutes individuals for genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity.

The ICJ Has Acted on Multiple Genocides:

The ICJ has been involved in genocide-related cases when brought under international treaties, such as the Genocide Convention.

Global Legal Obligations:

Involvement of the ICJ or ICC is not exclusive to any region or conflict. Their roles are tied to legal frameworks ratified by states and guided by international law.

specific to Israel, The ICC formally announced its investigation into alleged war crimes in the OPT in March 2021. This was based on Palestine's 2015 referral to the ICC and its recognition of the court’s jurisdiction under the Rome Statute, predating South Africa's more vocal role​.
