Seems like Trump and other Climate Destructors are afraid to end up in front of this court.
It feels to me like these measure are not up to the host country to negotiate? i.e. the ICC participatory countries would have to decide on this?
In any case, I haven't seen this in Dutch news yet.
No the fuck we are not!?!?
People would tearing up their own cabinet and then march upon the US embacy. So.. no...
Trump is a pig, and I honestly hope he will stop soon. Stop with what? I can't tell, it is illegal in my country.
It's not like any Democratic US president ever recognized the ICJ. They put on a friendlier face, are less overtly confrontational but would never do anything much different in international politics.
Obama never faced the ICJ for his drone campaigns against civilians.
Ok, who else wants to host the court if the dutch chicken out? It is not owned by any country, but of course tramp/bibi/putain dont know that...
Belgium or France must fill the gap.
All of us others don't have the heart.
But maybe, if the few corrupted dutch are singled out.... there is still hope.
Belgium has to. I don't know about France since they are on the brink of becoming far right with Le Pen.
Eh, our government is a clown circus atm. I think half of the parties in power would bend the knee to the US too.
Also I'd argue with Macron's current policies and actions, they already have a far right government
Israel wants the court gone, guess who they will side with?
That's absolutely horrible if true! ☹️
That’s it
Keep going, because once it all blows up these shitcunts go down with the rest of us
People with enough money or power will survive even the worst of political outcomes.
This just ragebaited Gaddafi into resurrecting, which ended up proving you right which then allowed him to peacefully pass away.
You birthed and killed Gaddafi. You monster.
You birthed and killed Gaddafi. You monster.
Not too far off from an old Onion video.
Holy fuck. I feel like I can guarantee someone at the Heritage Foundation laughed at this video, looked over and saw Trump on their computer, and immediately said: “holy fuck i have a plan”
People with enough money or power
It was not enough.
People with money and power have everything to lose when the system that helped them become rich and powerful fails. This is why billionaire doomsday bunkers are so dumb.
No, they won’t. Not once it fully breaks down.
This is what they don’t understand
Considering most of them are late boomers / gen X, they probably know they can survive for their lifetimes theoretically and logistically, which is probably true enough in most “safe” climate zones for the next 50ish years.
Their narcissism? Nearly completely prevents them from thinking about how quickly their mentals would go to shit.
