    Nobody with a nuclear arsenal will be launching any armed resistance to a nation with a nuclear arsenal, which is why it’s fucking insane we refuse to do the ONLY OTHER THING we can do - turning off military aid and sanctioning their economy.

    The ICC putting out a warrant for Netanyahu does the same thing as putting out a warrant for Putin - which is to say, basically nothing. It further isolates them, which is a good start, but nobody is pretending like he’s going to be lead away in chains.

    It does more to pressure the US, because the US has always gained the most from global governments like the ICC and UN, and this internal conflict threatens those coalitions. The US is right to be angry about the warrant, but I think most would agree the anger should be directed at the party guilty of war crimes, not the authority prosecuting them.

      How tf. is the US right to be angry about the warrant? If your son is suspected for murder and there is a warrant out, it is really not your place to be angry about the warrant.
