    Well to be fair, our government has done some war crimes. Maybe we should hear the ICC out on this one.

      Because your government has laws that would shield its citizens from ICC persecutions. Because you know, your government feels above international humanitarian law.

      When those arrest warrants are against your rivals (Putin) it is all fine and commendable, but when it is against you and your allies it is a despicable act. You see the double standards here?

      War crimes are war crimes no matter the side that commits them. And trying to undermine international laws and institutions created with the whole idea to prevent humanity from making the same mistakes like in the past should be preserved and protected.
