The very fact that ICC withdrew its investigation of US war crimes in Afghanistan after US sanctions and threatens their investigators pretty much destroyed any creditability for the organization.

[@Terry-ix3wp]

They once convicted a civilian from Serbia for 10 years because NATO bombed a building he owned and killed 16 innocent lives. The NATO war criminals never got charged by the ICC. His name is Dragoljub Milanović. It's absolutely an impartial kangaroo court and the judges should be held accountable

@@Frivals On September 2, 2020, the United States government imposed sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC) prosecutor, Fatou Bensouda, and another senior prosecution official, Phakiso Mochochoko. In addition, US Secretary of State Michael Pompeo announced that the United States had restricted the issuance of visas for certain unnamed individuals “involved in the ICC’s efforts to investigate US personnel.” The sanctions on Bensouda and Mochochoko implemented a sweeping executive order issued on June 11, 2020 by President Donald Trump. This order declared a national emergency and authorized asset freezes and family entry bans against ICC officials who were identified as being involved in certain activities. Earlier, the Trump administration had repeatedly threatened action to thwart ICC investigations in Afghanistan and Palestine.

Not really. In truth, if we went after Putin, there would be many more going to the ICC, and not just Americans - there will be many Indians and PRCers and others in the docks. Apparently, you can't be charged with war crimes if you successfully annex a nation, and convince or bully others around to accept your case that you didn't fight an aggressive war. If Iraq or Libya opens a case against the USA (and I would argue, some Americans would gleefully encourage them) it then opens a can of worms - Kashmiris can attempt to sue Pakistan and India, and Vietnamese may demand a case opened against China too. Never mind the countless number of Tibetans egging Vietnam on to do it.

(National Intelligence Law, effective 2017). Chinese citizens who do not follow the instructions and orders of the Chinese government will be arrested and have no option to decline. Together, these two laws create the most dangerous security situation for every country. 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸🇯🇵 Everyone from FBI directors to FCC (Federal Communications Commission) commissioners to cybersecurity experts have made clear the risks of TikTok being used to spy on users. It mentions that the Chinese company collects TikTok user data, which it says includes users' (1) personal information, (2) intellectual property, and (3) location data. The Chinese Government could use Tiktok to collect data on billions of users or control the recommendation algorithm for ‘Influence Operation’. 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸🇯🇵 TikTok is owned and operated by Beijing-based Chinese company ByteDance, and Chinese law requires the app's data to be made available to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Under China's National Intelligence Law (effective 2017), the Chinese government can demand all data from all Chinese companies around the world. TikTok previously said all U.S. users are stored in the U.S., but in July confirmed that employees in China and outside the U.S. could access U.S. user data. At a congressional hearing in September, TikTok executives refused to promise to stop American data from flowing to China. 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸🇯🇵 TikTok's US privacy policy indicates the company may collect biometric identifiers and biometric information such as face prints and voice prints. TikTok's US privacy policy : “We may collect biometric identifiers and biometric information as defined under U.S. laws, such as faceprints and voiceprints, from your User Content. “ 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸🇯🇵 TikTok’s parent company ByteDance's hiring criteria favor members of the Communist Party of China. Many managers, key figures and executives in the company are members of the CCP. To demonstrate its loyalty to the Chinese Communist Party, it hired more staff for the department that acts as a censorship agency and removed content that was not consistent with the Chinese government's wishes. In 2018, the Chinese government made Communist Party members of ByteDance pledge to sacrifice everything for the party and never leave the party. Tiktok can exist on any kind of website in the form of a Tiktok pixel/tracker, allowing Tiktok to collect data even if you have never used the app. Websites with embedded Tiktok videos can be used to place trackers on devices and steal usernames and passwords, credit card and banking information, and personal health details. TikTok's parent company, ByteDance, could share user data with the Chinese government to spy and spread disinformation. 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦 User Data TikTok Collects * Device of the user * IP address * Mobile carrier * Time zone settings * Model of the user's device * Device system * Network type * Device IDs * Screen resolution * Operating system * App and file names and types * Keystroke patterns or rhythms * Battery state * Audio settings * Connected audio devices * faceprints and voiceprints * Media metadata * Name * Date of birth * Phone number * email 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸🇯🇵 The government of Lithuania in Europe has called for a boycott of Chinese smartphones, citing surveillance features. In order to prevent Lithuanians from accessing information that is inconvenient for the Chinese government, China is indirectly monitoring it through mobile phones.🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸🇯🇵 Lithuania has been calling for a boycott of Chinese smartphones because they have surveillance functions. In September 2021, the Lithuanian Ministry of Defense warned that the products of Xiaomi, 小米集团, a major Chinese smartphone circulating in the country, have a built-in function to detect terms that the Chinese government is wary of and restrict the use of content. The ministry called on public institutions and consumers to boycott smartphones made in China and dispose of purchased products. 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸 According to a report released by the Ministry of Defense, Xiaomi's smartphone had a built-in function to detect terms that the Chinese government warns against, such as "Free Tibet" and "Long live Taiwan independence." More than 400 terms are believed to be subject to monitoring, and if those terms are included in content downloaded by users, the download will be automatically blocked. It also confirmed that encrypted phone usage data was sent to a server in another country. A senior Lithuanian defense ministry official said: "We recommend that you do not buy new Chinese smartphones, and if you have already bought one, dispose of it as soon as possible." 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸🇯🇵 China’s attempts to spread propaganda and disinformation emphasize speed over quality. Nobel prize, scientists: 25 Japanese, 2 Taiwanese, 3 Chinese. 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸🇯🇵 Taiwan "problem" is of utmost concern to Chinese operatives, many of whom are Chinese university students, who carry out the Chinese government-led propaganda "disinformation diffusion operation." Taiwan is one country and not part of China. 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸🇯🇵 There is no historical record available to show whether China undertook unbroken and continuous sovereignty actions against the Spratly Islands (southern South China Sea) prior to the Japanese occupation in 1939. China's territorial claims are groundless. 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸🇯🇵 After World War II, Japan renounced its claims to the Spratly Islands.

Well, hopefully this will make people realize that 'international justice' must be backed up by real power. If you have real power, you get a free pass. This is because we do not actually have any global standards for truth, justice, equality, even if many countries try to find some standards. Additionally, bringing a perceived perpetrator to justice requires that someone come pick him up. To apprehend a suspect, you need power behind you. All countries have their own police and courts of justice, but there is no real 'world police' or 'international court of justice', yet, just a sketch of those institutions. Who knows, maybe it will happen sometime in the future. And for what it's worth, I think it is highly unlikely that Putin will ever be brought to the ICC. He, after all, has a lot of power himself.

Agreed, If only China was not such an assh*Le towards it's neighboring countries then they would've gotten a stronger support and allies. Sometimes I believe that the CCP are actually America's puppets to cause a divide in Asian nations.

[@iNikkehx333]

Very true, I agree about this! China and India are the two most populated and ranked extremely high in IQ. Border issues should be resolved soon and join hands together to fight against the west's hypocrisy and aggression that they haven't been accounted for. I'm from the USA and it's sad to see that my country has fallen this far down. Only blaming others of war crimes but never responsible for their own against the middle-eastern countries. Invaded Iraq because they supposedly had nuclear firearms in possession to use against the USA, but then years later we find out they never had any.

As a western myself I totally agree with how hypocritical our establishments, and the people who support them, are. One of the things that bothers me the most is how this has awful consequences for the average citizens of western countries, not only because it puts us in uneasy terms with people from the rest of the world, who see us as a bunch of hypocritical psychopaths, but also because each cent spent in the US war machine is a cent taken away from fulfilling the basic needs of the people who in these years, in their own countries, were left abandoned, losed their job or make immense sacrifices to feed their families for another month.

The Patriot Act, PNAC and WMDs were all well planned topics years before 9/11, or do you still believe they were coincidences? Had there actually been a legitimate, totally transparent investigation, with full legal subpoena power regarding all aspects of 9/11, then many of the culprits who were insidiously hiding in the shadows, would have been revealed and brought to justice. Instead all we heard was Osama Bin Laden and Al Quaida over and over and over and over, and over.
