U.S. threatening the International Criminal Court (ICC) and closing PLO Office in DC

[☑︎#VoteDemocrat]

In fact, I'm pretty sure the US gets agreement from many countries to stay immune from prosecution from the ICC. Also, the Republicans and especially the Trump Administration have shown quite a disdain for the UN as a whole. This would have happened under any Rep or Dem. If we're being honest.

Yep: Status of forces agreement - Wikipedia

That isn't the same thing as their embassy right?

Protect yourself from prosecution for war crimes

John Bolton is one of those war criminals

You dont know what that word means, and i'm someone who despises Bolton's rhetoric and worldview.

I do know what that word means

Bolton falsified intelligence to push for the Iraq War. He's a criminal!

 

[Secure Da Bag]

Can Bolton be found guilty by association of a war crime if the President is found guilty of a war crime?

The russians will deal with him

 

[newworldafro]

Damn. Fuucked up.

Congress added a provision to the law in 2015 requiring the shuttering of the mission if the Palestinians seek to "influence a determination by the ICC to initiate a judicially authorized investigation, or to actively support such an investigation, that subjects Israeli nationals to an investigation for alleged crimes against Palestinians."

Obama allowed that? He signed off on that?

Was probably bundled in with something crucial that needed to be signed. Didn't bother looking it up.

he also expected that the united states would be the main intermediary between israeli and palestinian negotiations for the forseeable future. it was a pretty crucial error that he didnt forsee the next president would potentially move the embassy to jerusalem for no reason and move the US administration so far to israels side that the palestinian authority would lose all faith in the US and go to the ICC to try to build more global support.
because unconditional support for and defense of all israeli policies is important for many democratic politicians too they mightve been able to override a veto too so it might not have even been worth it.

America is still the one and only intermediary that’s gonna get a peace deal done.

i dont disagree with you completely (it straight up will not happen without the US) but i dont see a peace deal happening even with the US in that position
