Iran has achieved a singular statistic in its current front against Israel. After firing more than 400 missiles over nearly a month, Tehran apparently hasn’t hit a single Israeli military target. That leaves the Islamic Republic with a 100% civilian casualty ratio—a benchmark of the number of civilian casualties relative to combatant ones.
Not long ago, civilian casualty ratios were at the heart of discussions of the Israel-Gaza war, with Israel’s critics claiming that “disproportionate” levels of civilian casualties were evidence of war crimes. In reality, Israel’s infliction of 30% to 40% military casualties on an adversary hiding behind civilians was impressive by the standards of urban warfare. Now that Iran is batting a consistent .000, commentators seem less focused on casualty ratios.
The International Criminal Court has been conspicuously quiet on the Iran conflict. While Israel fought Hamas after its Oct. 7, 2023, massacre, ICC officials repeatedly criticized Israel’s conduct of the war and eventually issued arrest warrants for top Israeli officials.

Why the International Criminal Court Isn’t Taking On Iran?

“I haven’t investigated them deeply, but given the ICC ties to deep-state, woke US Dept of Justice and the Democrats”
Eh???? Every U.S. administration has opposed our joining the ICC.
Likely take on PDJT.
Because the ICC was invented to punish the USA and Israel. The entire UN exists to punish Israel and fleece the US taxpayer.
Yes the court that never cared about Allende but jailed Pinochet. Hence a court that ignore left wing crimes.
“Every U.S. administration has opposed our joining the ICC.”
I thought Clinton joined it and Bush withdrew from it.
Because it’s not Jewish.
