The indictment is obviously not enforceable, but is intended to send a message that the West will continue to double down.

That the indictment focuses on the bizarre charge of taking children from a war zone was chosen specifically because the same charge could not be readily applied to Bush, Cheney or Blair.

This blatant hypocrisy is entirely intentional.

These totalitarian globalists will continue to try to criminalize everyone who stands up to their rhetoric - including all of us. The problem here is we have globalists fighting globalists with Putin against the UK and US supremacy. He is right in many ways to do so but he too is a a globalist. The International Military Industrial wants perpetual war for perpetual peace - that is how they profit from us.

Coming defeat of Nazi-dominated "government" of Ukraine -- a puppet of corrupt criminal US fascism -- will cure the collective insanity of US "elite"

Putin and maria Lvova-Belova have been charged with among other crimes :'kidnapping children', when in fact what was done was evacuate children from the Donbass war zone. Kiev might now whine whagt they claim russia is doing but theyve been bombing Donbass since 2014 USA coup and have shown no interest in the safety and wellbeing of donbass children.

Meanwhile. who else evacuated children from a war zone? britain!

'Fear that German bombing would cause civilian deaths prompted the government to evacuate children, mothers with infants and the infirm from British towns and cities during the Second World War. Evacuation took place in several waves. The first came on 1 September 1939 - the day Germany invaded Poland and two days before the British declaration of war. Over the course of three days 1.5 million evacuees were sent to rural locations considered to be safe.'

Thank you for putting the ICC into its true context and exposing its true role. A lot of hard work and a lot of evidence to support your conclusions. Well done.

Britains WW2 evacuation of children program was given the maybe not well chosen code name of 'operation Pied Piper'

Deep State and Dems are in absolute panic about Trump candidacy in 2024.

DeSantis issued a very poor/weak defense of the latest (threat of Trump arrest) legal outrage – essentially eliminating itself as a serious 2024 candidate.

The only and the best solution for DeSantis and for the US democracy is to issue a statement that

-– he will not run in 2024 elections but

-- that he will be honored if Trump selects him as VP.
