The International Criminal Court (ICC) on Thursday blasted the decision by the Trump administration to sanction four of its judges.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced the sanctions in a statement, saying they target Solomy Balungi Bossa of Uganda, Luz del Carmen Ibáñez Carranza of Peru, Reine Adelaide Sophie Alapini Gansou of Benin and Beti Hohler of Slovenia.

Two of the sanctioned judges authorized the arrest warrants for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant which the court issued last November. The others authorized an ICC investigation into abuses by US personnel in Afghanistan.

The ICC said in response that it “deplores” the US sanctions, calling them “a clear attempt to undermine the independence of an international judicial institution which operates under the mandate from 125 States Parties from all corners of the globe.”

Will they ever investigate the PRC? Russia? Iran? They only “investigate” safe whipping-boy countries that won’t disappear their “investigators” as they pre-draw their conclusions and cherry-pick their “evidence”.

I hope we’re not foolish enough to either recognize or fund this “court”.

They spelled the ICC incorrectly. It’s actually spelled “ICK”, as in disgusting body of rotten corrupt judge wannabes. Who the HECK do they think they are? Jumped up trash.

I’m unaware of any infantry divisions held by the ICC.

South Africa is only killing a few white people here and there. Too many of those people, anyway. Nothing to see here./s

Most people overlook the role of the majority block the OIC over at the “UN”.

Yep, United Nations of Islam, all third world failed nation states because of Islam.

Then, when they bring in their Marxist allies, they are the overwhelming vocal voice against the little Satan and the big Satan.

Thusly the global voice.

Worst part, they’re the blind leading the blind

Neither of them have contributed to the progress of man, they’re just barnacles on the ass of progress’ ass. Along for the free ride

I think there are ways to make them look over their backs. Send them a dead horse’s head and they’ll shut up.

They are not supposed to pursue cases against countries with a demonstrably fair judicial system that holds allegations of military misconduct to account, which means that they should not be prosecuting either Israel nor the US. They are out of control, not “independent” judiciary, violating their own charter.

America doesn’t need ANOTHER KANGAROO COURT RUN BY CHIMPANZEES. Our Feral Federal “judiciary” is working out just fine when it comes to screwing over America.

“...“a clear attempt to undermine the independence of an international judicial institution which operates under the mandate from 125 States Parties from all corners of the globe.””

How is such a “court” deemed “independent” - and how is 3.75% of that “court” an international ruling body?

Clearly, any ‘international body’ is most likely to be corrupt and in favor of whatever entity fills the pockets of the members.

The world is full of evil. These entities are just a ‘feel good’ attempt at ‘world peace’, putting a veil over the putrid stink that exists beneath.
