No American President will ever sit in The Hague. They only go after Africans.

The ICC is what states make of it. There are two ways cases get tried at the ICC. By referral of a state party or by referral of the Security Council. Africa has the highest number of signatories to the court and African Governments have been happy to refer cases to be tried at the Hague. Its not an ICC bias that Ivory Coast, for example, transferred Gbagbo and his case to the Hague.

If anything, the reaction Palestine joining the ICC and referring Israel for investigation shows what the court is up against in other parts of the world, where powerful states obstruct it. Its not the court itself that is the problem.

i also dont think the US has even signed onto the ICC because the government doesnt want the possibility of Americans tried in the Hague to even be in play

Pelosi added: “The Trump Administration’s provocative, escalatory and disproportionate military engagement continues to put servicemembers, diplomats and citizens of America and our allies in danger,” adding it was taken without the consultation of Congress

My post wasn’t criticizing the ICC. The USA doesn’t recognize it.
