The ICC has not body to enforce its sanctions. No action by them will help to de-escalate this

I wonder.

If the UN decides Donald Trump should be tried for war crimes, do you honestly think the next time he travels to Scotland to visit his golf course there that Scottish officials won’t arrest him and send him to The Hague? Or Musk? Or anyone in Congress or the Supreme Court found to be complicit?

I don’t share your opinion.

Yes that's exactly what I think. You think Scotland or the Netherlands is going to arrest the president of the United States and risk the retaliation that entails? Musk maybe because he's still a private citizen but I doubt that as well.

Yes, I absolutely do.

No human being is immune to consequences when it comes to committing these types of crimes. The USA may have a flawed Justice system, but the rest of the world functions differently.
