"The ICC somehow managed to create an institution even more useless than the UN."
Yet two of the most powerful thugs: Putin and Netanyahu won't go near an ICC signatory state.
- throw-the-towel 11mo agoNetanyahu frequently visits various European states. Putin went to Mongolia and back. All of these are signatories.
- clydethefrog 11mo agoFrequently is false. Netanyahu only visited one European country after the ICC arrest order - it was Hungary because Orban explicitly managed he wouldn't be arrested. Also, if look at the exact plane movements of his visits, they specifically avoid the air space of countries that do take the ICC seriously.

- throw-the-towel 11mo agoHmm, I remembered various countries declaring Netanyahu was still welcome, and assumed that he was going to visit. I stand corrected, thanks!
