That's why we never supported the Rome Statue to begin. U.S officials were complicit in war crimes against the civilians we were there to 'protect'. We even enacted a law that allows military forces to be used to get a person out of The Hague, if taken to Int'l Court.

If no war crimes were committed, no one has anything to worry about eh Mr. Secretary ?

Yea- we won't let them in if they are going make a deal about our crimes. Holy sh*t. What a celebration I plan to have when this admin is held accountable.

Fascist says what?

Just like a republican to not want to take responsibility

I think it gives 'Death Squads' free reign. No chance of consequence?

Fascists do this.
