Did you read the allegations? These are people accused of stealing money from the tunisian population. For me it falls under oppression of citizens. Even if you don't agree, they are criminals. Not war crime prosecutors, whose crime is

I see. But talks of potential war and the actuality of targeting these type of individuals is different. Both are very scary, but only one, for now, is an actuality.

So now you're saying attacking the netherlands is the same as not cooperating with the ICC? They don't have to attack netherland nor sanction the prosecutors to ward off the ICC, they choose to use escalation of force, because tha

Well that's still is politics. The US lost its marbles after 9/11. Obama was trying to stear the boat a different way, but he didn't have the support of the legislative bodies which made it their job to give him hell no matte

These people are not head of states, they are not war criminals, they do no oppress their citizens, they are not building weapons of mass destruction. These are the causes for the sanctions you are talking about. Come on. That's bird l

You are using supposed "rationality" to just ignore facts and reality. US is entitled to not cooperate. But bullying individual prosecutors is disgusting.

Let's say there's a bully, and he just takes and steal stuff. And then there's a big guy seeing that and telling the bully to fuck off and let the kids play without fear. Both are power moves. Do you think they're the sa

There's a huge difference between refusing to cooperate and sanctioning indviduals. The latter is a fear tactic move. Mafia style.

Disgusting. This administration is shattering any form of international cooperation not based on power and submission. This brings humanity back to a pre WWs mentality.

I dunno, colleges in Europe fair well, there most countries just subsidize tuition. And rely on tradition and non rational incentives to keep quality reasonable. The failure modes arise when the actors are rational and profit oriented.

If she has no recourse than the only form of justice she has available is an eye of an eye. She's a single person against a huge conglomerate like vice. Sadly, legal means are not relevant in that situation. If you don't want to l

This has nothing to do with logic or rationality. No one is capable of fact checking everything. At best the rational choice is to not believe anyone. Which is exactly what most adversarial information actors want to achieve. When we lose t

Just buy less. Western consumerism gave China it's power. Have a leader who the world believe he acts in good faith regarding ideals, and not busy subverting ideals for game and profit. But no, you'll choose power and war.
