ICC Colluding With Terror-Linked Orgs to Target U.S. and Israel

The International Criminal Court (ICC) according to a new report is targeting the U.S. and Israel for war crimes at the behest of terror-linked groups.

This certainly won’t sit well with the Trump administration or Congress who both have rock relationships with the organization.

According to The Washington Free Beacon:

The International Criminal Court is working alongside several organizations and individuals tied to terrorism as it seeks to prosecute American and Israeli personnel for war crimes, according to a new report out of Israel. The findings call into question the court’s integrity at a time when it is facing international backlash over its pursuit of politically motivated cases.

The report—from the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs (JCPA), an Israel-based research group headed by a former adviser to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu—concludes that under the leadership of Chief Prosecutor Fatou Bensouda, the ICC collaborated with terror-tied groups to pursue charges against American and Israeli military officials it claims are guilty of committing war crimes against civilians, including in Afghanistan and Palestinian territories. The cases originated with complaints filed to the court by two nonprofit advocacy groups with ties to terrorism.

In its report, “How the ICC Has Been Weaponized Against the U.S. and Israel,” the JCPA details how two international nonprofit groups hijacked the ICC to ensure it targets the United States and Israel for prosecution on charges that both nations have called unwarranted. Researchers uncovered new information indicating that “radical NGOs, some of which are affiliated with terror organizations, collaborated in promoting the complaints against the U.S. and Israel.”

The findings are likely to stoke already mounting frustrations with the court in Congress and the Trump administration, which has repeatedly condemned the ICC’s pursuit of charges against American military personnel. The United States is not a party to the court and has vowed to defend itself against any legal action. Israel has adopted a similar stance on the court, which has repeatedly attempted to single out Jews for prosecution related to the country’s efforts to combat Palestinian terrorism.

The Trump admin has gone on record to call it a “renegade” organization.

Now for about 30 years Israel has by international standards committed war crimes against Palestine, and they are all documented in most cases on video. Now when you come and take peoples land and if they do not leave once you took their land they arrest you or in some cases shoot you, not that is a crime against humanity in every respect. Israel does not allow enough food in to feed the people and they are not allowed to fish in their own waters for food, controlled by Israel patrol boats.
Just because some thinks protecting Israel at any cost is a Biblical need, they are wrong in every sense of the word.

Fortunately, today our country is not controlled by Schiff, Nadler or Schumer and they will certainly not be able to put Israel up for sale again!

ICC the incestuous sister of the UN. The U.S. needs to defund both organizations and throw the UN out of our country.
