    Certain governments’ treatment of the members of the International Court of Justice and the International Criminal Court is downright disgusting. Thanks to the Nobel Peace Prize Committee for recognizing the incredibly valuable service these two institutions perform.

      The White House walls are probably dripping with ketchup this morning.

        Fuck this timeline and absentees from the ICC (Rome Statute) in particular. Also targeting civilian infrastructure is a war crime.

        Is there a way for the UN to remove the Security Council Veto BS?

          The UN is in New York. So no, unfortunately, I don’t think it’s gonna happen. Even if it did, Trump would just pull out.

          The other countries will have to make a new one if they want to agree on things. Call it something Trump won’t want to join. Like the committee for free and open trade. And build it up from there. Claim humanitarian issues hinder trade. It’s true.
