The International Criminal Court (ICC) has jailed the likes of Slobodan Milosevic of Yugoslavia (now Serbia/Montenegro) and Charles Taylor of Liberia. But Israel's Benjamin Netanyahu, who could be arrested while visiting countries like Britain and France, was protected by the U.S. refusal to join the ICC. In addition, Trump recently filed economic and travel sanctions against the ICC war crimes prosecutor Karim Khan.
With a potential U.S. government shutdown on March 14, due to stalemates between the two major parties, the Trump administation could have carte blanche to strengthen what some consider an ongoing attempted coup.
