    I wrote my representative in Congress for the first time in my life over this, as he is one of the Dems who voted for it. I’m not patting myself on the back, just recommending you do it too if you are a US citizen.

    I don’t have high hopes since his seat was purchased by AIPAC, but it felt good to vent to one of the people who have a voice in the system.

        So not only is USA not a member of the ICC, they want to sanction now professionals working in the ICC for doing their work.

        “The U.S. is one of only a handful of states, including Israel, not party to the Rome Statute; the U.S. has long been hostile to the ICC, potentially in part due to some U.S. officials’ implication in alleged war crimes, as some commentators have pointed out.”

      No, you can only do whatever you want if you have a certain tax bracket and/or you control the world’s most funded industrial military complex.

    What level of slamming was this particular slam though? Like just a little slam and cheese snack? Or full on 2-foot slamalami sandwich on fire?
