We are a thug-state run by corporate mobsters. We pretend to care about human rights and the rule of law but in reality all we care about is the stock market's bottom line and keeping our puppet dictators in power and out of prison.
Lindsey Graham was talking to Sean Hannity the other day and he suggested if any of our allies in the world were to honor international rule of law by upholding the ICC arrest warrants against Netanyahu or Gallant, we should make their economies scream because, in the end, they could end up coming for us next.
During an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity on Friday, Graham warned:
You’re gonna have to pick the rogue ICC vs. America. I’m working with [Sen.] Tom Cotton to have legislation passed as soon as we can to sanction any country that aids and abets the arrest of any politician in Israel. What they’re doing in Israel is trying to prevent a second Holocaust. So, to any ally — Canada, Britain, Germany, France — if you try to help the ICC, we’re gonna sanction you.
When Hannity asked what the penalty should be, Graham replied, “We should crush your economy, because we’re next. Why can’t they go after Trump or any other American president under this theory?”
One might respond that the International Criminal Court can’t go after Donald Trump or any other American president — unless they commit a crime against humanity.
The aforementioned Cotton offered an ominous threat of his own, referencing a 2002 law signed by President George W. Bush.
“The ICC is a kangaroo court and Karim Khan is a deranged fanatic,” he wrote on X. “Woe to him and anyone who tries to enforce these outlaw warrants. Let me give them all a friendly reminder: the American law on the ICC is known as The Hague Invasion Act for a reason. Think about it.” MSNBC
We are not a signatory on the ICC (there are about 120 nations that are) because our foreign policy is usually criminal in nature and we don't want our corrupt leaders arrested when they travel.
Graham threatening even our allies makes it easy to understand why so many countries are opting out of our unipolar world order and opting instead for BRICS.
Which is why our glorious leaders hate BRICS so much and why their fake 'alt' minions in the alternative media sphere do as well. It undermines our control of other states which effects Wall Street's bottom line a.k.a. our 'national interests'
So it's a rather telling glimpse into our global structure when we see an idiot like Graham say the quiet part out loud in a chat on live TV. This is why BRICS is winning. They built a better mouse-trap.
Also of note is his explanation for why we have to threaten allies in order to protect a genocidal Jewish supremacist who is currently ethnically cleansing Palestine both in Gaza and the West Bank...
... because they next could come for us.
You see, as I have pointed out before, Biden and members of our political and military structure here in the States could easily be charged as accomplices to genocide, a very serious crime.
There are a lot of things that our leaders, past, present and certainly future, could be charged with by the ICC.
Take 'terrorism' for instance.
Threatening to 'make their economies scream' if other countries don't do what we want politically is technically... terrorism, since the pain of the economic collapses will certainly be felt mostly by that nation's civilians.
When you commit violence or the threat of violence (economic devastation is considered violence due to how it effects their society and infrastructure) against the people of a nation in order to make changes to them socially, economically or politically, that, by definition, is terrorism.
Ergo, Lindsey Graham committed an act of terrorism against a number of our own allies in order to protect genocidal Benjamin Netanyahu.
Not Lindsey the crazy-ass Graham cracker!
