    They are talking about the ICC. I wonder how all this would play out on the ground.

    The International Criminal Court is a “court of last resort” intended for those who lack the ability to prosecute war crimes in their own nations, whether due to lack of recourse or lack of infrastructure.

    As such it’s supported by the majority of nations. But the US does not recognise or support it, and even passed the Hague invasion act which stipulates that the US gives itself authority to literally attack the ICC if it attempts to try any US soldier or official for war crimes.
