it sounds the same as the americans asking the isrealis to "pretty please stop" but never anything further than that.

the icc doesn't have its own army or police force; so i wonder how they intend to enforce this, if at all.

[-] kashifshah@social.sdf.org 1 points 3 months ago

@eldavi @kashifshah@lemmy.sdf.org it is up to the UN and the member states to enforce this.

[-] eldavi@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

the us already has a law that will allow it to militarily invade the hague if it tries to arrest american personnel and it also has veto power over the un; so it doesn't sound like there will be any change there.

and most of the member states are beholden to the united states in someway, so the members that can do anything won't.

i hope this doesn't further invalidate the icc's mandate.

@eldavi then it is up to the us citizens to change the policies of their state such that their state uses its power to enforce justice

you must not be an american because you would immediately know that both the democrats and the republicans support the isreali hegemony no matter what they do so it's not realistic to expect any help for atleast 3 generations of voters.

the other political parties get less that 9% of the vote combined each year so it has to be a democrat or republican and the current democrat in charge is biden who is supporting isreal in its current genocide of the gazans.

@eldavi then the democrats and republicans are enemies of justice and should be replaced by some third party of human rights-minded individuals

Agreed and we've been advocating for it for almost 100 years now in this country; but the Republicans and Democrats created the laws that guarantee that either of them are the only realistic options every election.

That's why you have to wait at least 3 generations to for anything to change. one realize that something is wrong; the next to push for it; and the last to implement it.

And right now; over 75% of Americans are unaware that anything is wrong so 3 generations is already unrealistic.

Agreed. Let me see what I can do.
