The International Criminal Court:

Before looking at the absurdity of the International Criminal Court (ICC) position, it is worth noting that Russia, Ukraine, Saudi Arabia, India, Iran, Iraq, Turkey, the United States and China do not recognize the jurisdiction of the ICC and are not member states in the organization {LINK}.
Additionally, I doubt the countries of Kiribati and Malawi are going to launch a military offensive against Russia; so, one has to ask, exactly what is this latest production about – amid the theater of World War Reddit.
The essential accusation is that Vladimir Putin took orphans out of orphanages in the Ukraine war zone and moved the children to safety in Russia. Ergo, Putin is guilty of human trafficking and abducting children.
THE HAGUE (AP) — The International Criminal Court said Friday that it has issued an arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin for war crimes, accusing him of personal responsibility for the abductions of children from Ukraine.
It was the first time the global court has issued a warrant against a leader of one of the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council.
The ICC said in a statement that Putin “is allegedly responsible for the war crime of unlawful deportation of (children) and that of unlawful transfer of (children) from occupied areas of Ukraine to the Russian Federation.”
The move was immediately dismissed by Moscow. […] Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Russia doesn’t recognize the ICC and considers its decisions “legally void.” He called the court’s move “outrageous and unacceptable.” Peskov refused to comment when asked if Putin would avoid making trips to countries where he could be arrested on the ICC’s warrant.

The International Criminal Court:
I’m waiting for them to issue an arrest warrant for President Trump. We’ll see how well that goes over.
The Third World Kangaroo Court might want to be careful with who they piss off. Pooty Poo has nukes. I don’t believe the nut would hesitate to use them. The ICC needs to go back to doing whatever it does to justify their salaries. Challenge the idiots at the UN to a shuffleboard contest or a spelling bee.
Is that Harold Lloyd? I’ve always meant to watch some of his movies but never have.
Biden is an accessory to human trafficking on the southern border of the US.
I’m waiting for FAUXI’s ARREST WARRANT at the ICC!
The ICC is making itself a clownhouse - like most western institutions of these day.
It’s the “other heinous misdeeds”that will get him. You watch.😂
It isn’t Free Republic without the daily threat of nuclear war from the Putin Puffers.
Nuts!
Buster Keaton!
