This was an easy one to predict, but it is still a stunning development.

Just one step closer to nuclear war. A big step.

Can't anyone think what arresting Putin would mean?

Fools.

It's not surprising given that Slobodan Milosevic was indicted for war crimes during an illegal bombing campaign based on an event which was subsequently proven to be a false flag (Racak massacre). Basically shows that the complete hypocrisy of the west....

Furthermore, the Russian army's conduct has been exemplary, no war CRIMES, have been committed. This is just an attempt to cast the war itself as CRIMINAL

Reminds me of how ridiculous the postwar order is. International courts are a joke, but to ask for the arrest of a head of state who isn’t even a signatory and nuclear to boot is exactly the kind of vapid preformatory politicking I’ve come to expect from the west, and not actual statesmanship.

I managed to get ChatGPT to admit that America's war against Iraq was illegal (per international law) and that it's America's power that prevents "global justice" from prosecuting any culprits.

Some countries are above law. The problem with a move like this that is pushes Russia to stay above law.

I also believe that fucking with the wealth of Russian oligarchs was a bad move, they should have been given a carrot, not a stick where their safest option is to Snowden back behind Putin.

The ICC, with this move, is like an Irani court sentencing Obama to death for drone strikes. It's ridiculous.

So much for talk about a "law based world order" replacing the "rules-based order".

Putin should answer the warrant by nuking The Hague. Win for everyone.

It strikes me as absurdly transparent. According to Reuter’s,

“In its first warrant for Ukraine, the ICC called for Putin's arrest on suspicion of unlawful deportation of children and unlawful transfer of people from the territory of Ukraine to the Russian Federation.”

Fucking really? WONT SOMEONE THINK OF THE CHILDREN?? That’s the best they got?

Pfft.

Drone story was also interesting this week as well as the Iran-Saudi story. In a terribly hopeful and indulgent way could be seen as a ‘desperate’ response to rally the supporters, or to asses who is on their side.

Our elites are behaving like lunatics. They have no realistic strategy so all they focus on is narrative control

They are doing nothing more than proving Putin correct in his accusations against the West, giving him more arguments to justify the war.
