tell me if you can exactly who this guy is acting for in actions like this;
The
Trump administration again named Israelis along with Americans as
deserving immunity from International Criminal Court prosecution.
In
a statement Friday, President Donald Trump declared victory after the
ICC rejected a request to investigate U.S. personnel for actions in
Afghanistan.
“Since
the creation of the ICC, the United States has consistently declined to
join the court because of its broad, unaccountable prosecutorial
powers; the threat it poses to American national sovereignty; and other
deficiencies that render it illegitimate,” the White House said in a
statement it attributed to Trump. “Any attempt to target American,
Israeli, or allied personnel for prosecution will be met with a swift
and vigorous response.”
It’s
the second time that the Trump administration has extended its vow to
protect allies from the court explicitly to Israelis. Last month,
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said ICC officials who prosecute Americans or Israelis would be denied entry into the United States.
The
ICC is known to be considering whether to act on a request by the
Palestinian Authority to investigate Israeli officials for war crimes.
Like the United States, Israel is not a member of the court and thus its
citizens are susceptible to court action only if they are in countries
that belong to the ICC.......http://www.thetruthseeker.co.uk/?p=186868
