Puppets of whom? Usually conspiracy theorists like yourself tend to point at Jews/Zionists/globalists when inventing some shady cabal that controls the police. But in this case that wouldn't make sense. So are you positing a pro-Palestine cabal, which has the power to control the ICC and the ICJ, but doesn't have the power to stop its people being massacred every day for over a year? Who? Who is pulling the strings in your puppet show?

Puppets of the US and the West in general, obviously. Have you literally never read anything about the international courts? Because them being western puppets an extremely common accusation

How is the ICC both a US puppet and a US enemy right now?

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago

Because the ICC is smart enough to know that if they just completely ignore Israel exterminating an entire country, they will completely lose all credibility that they might of had. The US government, on the other hand, is controlled by insane octogenarians.

But then the west would be pulling the strings in a conspiracy against itself! That's nonsense sorry

What the fuck are you talking about?

[–] crapwittyname@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Oh ok. Right, so the west (Europe, UK, US) are PRO-Israel, meaning they are AGAINST the arrest warrants for Netenyahu et.al. If the west we're pulling the strings of the ICC, then it wouldn't have issued the warrants in the first place.

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's literally the first time they have ever issued a warrant for a Western ally, and they only did it because they're smart enough to know that not doing it when Israel is publicly exterminating an entire country would destroy all credibility the international court might have.

Ok, so in this particular instance, they're not having their strings pulled by the puppet masters? Is that what you're saying? They are acting on their own now? You said they are puppets. WHO IS PULLING THE STRINGS TO FORCE THEM TO ISSUE ARREST WARRANTS?

I wish I was a conspiracy theorist; I would love to have the certainty. Nevertheless I merely point out a very common and true accusation that the icc's & icj's purpose is use the legal system against the global south to justify the western capitalist empire's hegemony.

You're either living under a rock or willfully ignorant about this fact and your choice of primary instance informs my that it's likely the latter since you have internet access but refuse to inform yourself of our reality.

Willful ignorance like yours is the reason why Harris lost the election; the reason why we're descending into fascism; and why the western world is doing little more than token efforts on climate change. for their sake, I hope you never have children so that they can avoid the cruelty that you're (hopefully) unwittingly helping propagate.
