Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.


Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.


5. Only recent news is allowed.


Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.


No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.


7. No duplicate posts.


If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.


All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body


For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Why are they so scared of the ICC? Under current US laws as passed by Congress it's illegal for the US to send people to the ICC. And even if Democrats win a bunch of seats I don't see them reversing that law since it passed with bipartisan support.

Because they ICC is investigating their warcrimes in central and south America. The lead investigator for that case was gunned down in open daylight too.

They are PEDOPHILIC, TRAITOROUS, NAZIS THAT COUPED OUR GOVERNMENT

WE ALL KNOW WHAT SHOULD HAPPEN TO PEDOPHILIC, TRAITOROUS, NAZIS

Probably doing work for Israel, Netanyahu is wanted for war crimes by the ICC after all.

It's not even just Netanyahu, Trump likes the kind of people who want to do things that should get them tried by the ICC.

Because other countries have pledged to follow the ICC's rulings. Which means they might enforce arrest warrants issued by the court, and that would put the US in the awkward position of having to invade the Netherlands in order to "rescue" them. It would be much easier for the US, if the court simply didn't exist.

Probably because the ICC will surely be a component of the prosecution against the regime - assuming the regime can be kicked out of power somehow, with or without violence.

And the best person to lead that prosecution would be Jack Smith.

All fascist regimes fall; the question is how much damage they do beforehand.
