John Bolton: We Will No Longer Cooperate With the International Criminal Court

41

The ICC is nothing short of an international sharia court. Why would even consider recognizing it? This announcement is perfectly timed — on the eve of September 11th.

The Trump administration — the gift that keeps on giving.

Bolton: We Will No Longer Cooperate With the ICC

Story continues below advertisement

By Cortney O’Brien Townhall, September 10, 2018:

On Monday, national security advisor John Bolton announced major changes in how the U.S. will treat the International Criminal Court. The body has gone beyond its duties, Bolton charged, by attempting to proceed with an investigation into alleged war crimes by U.S. forces in Afghanistan.

“In practice the court has been ineffective, unaccountable, and indeed outright dangerous,” Bolton said.

The ICC, he added, is “superfluous.” Their investigation is ridiculous, because U.S. military personnel already “must operate fully in accordance with the law of armed conflict.”

He threatened the ICC with sanctions if it does not end the investigation and said that going forward, the U.S. will not be cooperating with the court.

Bolton says if the ICC pursues prosecution of the U.S. or her allies, they “will not sit quietly.” He got specific. The U.S., he explained, will ban ICC judges and prosecutors from entering the U.S. and is prepared to impose sanctions on them and prosecute them in the U.S.

Ditto. I can only imagine what the 2020 presidential election will look like — the f’ing Dem0rats will be carting in illegal voters from around the world to throw the vote in favour of whatever islamic apologist/sympathizer/collaborator they’ve nominated.

A common ploy of lefties the world over. They know 16-18 year olds, with pretty much zero life experience, are going to buy their warm and fuzzy bs more than the message put out by parties that have to manage reality. Happened in the Scottish independence referendum, and the Brexit Remainers are pushing for a second referendum that includes 16 year olds.

If the marriage at 6 yrs old is allowed, why not to vote as well? Sounds fair to me. To marry and go voting simultaneously.

Exactly. Why bother getting the women to the polls. Just have the men cast two votes. Or 12 , whatever the case may be. It is surely offensive to allow females out of the house. That is not what they are for

Trudeau and his sharia Liberals want to have people vote without providing ID. All that would be needed is to have someone vouch for them. Imagine a Muslim male showing up at the first voting site with his four “wives”, their five ‘sisters” and their fifteen spawn, all in their headbags, and vouch for them with no picture ID. Once done, he could bus them all off to the next voting site. This seems to be the Liberal intent.

Well, you can count me in too. I intend to vote in the US elections. If Kenyans can vote and the dead and illegal aliens, then why not Aussies.

It is time to stop playing footsie with all the UN Agencies that seek to usurp western nations, and just defund, delegitmize, disband, and evict the UN from the USA. If they wish to keep running, let them do so from Gaza or Ramallah.

Set up the headquarters in some war zone like Somalia, Afghanistan or Nigeria. It wouldn’t take long for whichever country to become terrorist free when the UN Members find their lives at risk every day.

Better yet, relocate them to the soon to be vacant UNRWA buildings in Gaza.

How long before the ICC begins prosecuting thinly disguised islamic blasphemy and heresy laws on behalf of their muslum overlords?
I believe at one point Jordan had an arrest warrant issued for Robert Spencer on some sort of slandering islum charges, but I haven’t been able to find a reference for it.

Going against Trump’s US will have GRAVE consequences, in trump’s era there are NO free meals and if you are not totally “with us” you are by definition, against us…

The next US “bomb” to fall on the utterly corrupt, anti American, Antisemitic “world organisations”, might very well fall on the UN…

WOW!! This is all so refreshing and encouraging…

When has the ICC condemned the abuses and crimes committed by Muslim countries? Such as Pakistan, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Iran?

Why bother listing any of them? All muslum countries are totalitarian, theocractic, religious apartheid states where human rights and freedom are nothing but meaningless words to be parroted to the moral retards of the dying atheist West.

Time for the globalist to get the U.S.. Will they be charging other countries for “war crimes” too?
Watch for more intense UN hatred of the U.S..

Agree. They allowed muslim war criminals go scot free while sending serbian christians who fought them to death sentence ! Typical pro-jihadi Leftists slimeballs

Trump was conned by Abbas initially but when he found out the truth boy was he mad as hell at the jihadi http://bit.ly/2rOmfyJ

That’s when he decided enough is enough and that inspite of huge opposition led to shifting of Embassy to Jerusalem and No more funding to the jihadis.

Good to read. But it boils down to what many have said over the years. Get the UN out of the US and the US out of the UN. Use US money to the UN to fund the wall, help vets, help Americans.

Good. Finally some leadership that doesn’t have to have quote marks.

The ICC can indict a ham sandwich, but has done nothing to quell any of the violent, dangerous, or evil regimes around the world from going about their business. Instead, it’s an ankle-biter for the Left, and a Jihad tool for the Muslims.
