    Hm, I wonder why someone would be antagonistic to an organization persecuting international crimes? It’s a mystery.

    Both Israel and Palestine can do bad things (and good too) at the same time. Support doesn’t have to be all or nothing.

    I’ll be the first to admit that the Whitehouse’s text is written persuasively, but from what I found the ICC hasn’t claimed jurisdiction over Israel or the US despite the Whitehouse’s claims.

    The Panel agrees with the Prosecutor’s assessment that the ICC has jurisdiction in relation to crimes committed on the territory of Palestine, including Gaza, since 13 June 2014, under article 12(2)(a) of the ICC Statute.3 It also agrees that the Court has jurisdiction over crimes committed by Palestinian nationals inside or outside Palestinian territory under article 12(2)(b) of the Statute. The ICC therefore has jurisdiction over Israeli, Palestinian or other nationals who committed crimes in Gaza or the West Bank. It also has jurisdiction over Palestinian nationals who committed crimes on the territory of Israel, even though Israel is not an ICC State Party.
