"The US firmly stands with Israel and refuses to allow international bureaucrats to baselessly issue arrest warrants to Israeli leadership for false crimes."
Wow, the propaganda really worked with this one.

Sanctioning a legal body because they call you out is crazy, trying to put pressure and sieze their assets is insane. US is the villains.

So if Israel is innocent, why are they not allowing independent investigators in Gaza? Or independent media inside Gaza?
You know if you are innocent there isn't anything to hide, and by refusing this, you simply acknowledge your wrong doings.
And now imagine if China had sanctioned ICC prosecutors when they announced Putin's arrest warrant. I wonder what would be the reaction of the US in that particular case?
International laws for thee but not for me.

Just makes America look even more evil than it already does.

Surely not for the last time, I'm an embarrassed American

Today's vote draws a line in the sand for lawless action by ICC officials," Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson said in a statement.
We've got a fucking comedian here.
...largely symbolic...
...would bar US entry for ICC officials involved with the case, revoking their visas and restricting any US-based property transactions.

revoking their visas and restricting any US-based property transactions.
So any icc employee who has settled in the US. Loses access to family. And is unable to sell property to fund moving them. To a less politically toxic nation?
It could be a ĺittle more then symbolism to the lives of anyone involved who has a visa.
Republicans seem to really ignore:we no longer live in a world where the girl/boy next door is your most likely wife/husband. Many of us human beings build relationships accross borders now the Internet is so linked to our daily lives.
