Isn’t persecution/obstruction/harassment of ICC staff itself a crime? Like, couldn’t they arrest Satya Nadella for this?
The US is not a signatory to the ICC and doesn’t recognize it. The whole point of ICC was to act as a colonial court to go after African leaders the west wanted to remove from power.
Basically what it would mean is that he couldn’t enter countries that are a part of the ICC. Also Satya Nadella is an Indian citizen too as far as I know,
and I’m pretty sure India is a party to the ICC.Edit: I can’t read, India’s in the ICJ but not the ICC
India is not a signatory to he Rome Statute, also Netanyahu had no problems entering Germany last I checked https://asp.icc-cpi.int/states-parties
Sorry I read something backwards earlier, India is a member of the ICJ but not the ICC, I got it flipped
Oh yeah ICJ is a whole different animal, in fact the whole reason ICC exists is because the west doesn’t have sway over ICJ.
Even if the ICC were to issue an arrest warrant, who would be playing the role of “they” in this scenario?

“They” would be the police in whatever country that is a part of the ICC that he went to. The same way ICC warrants always work.
How stupid do you have to be to run your whole operation on IT services that aren’t in your jurisdiction where you’ll have no recourse if they decide to fuck with you? I mean for businesses it’s whatever, but the US notoriously hates the ICC.
The banking sanctions are more surprising to me
That is something that continues to be one of the most glaring issues of so many nations. Especially given how much the USA hypes-up how Chinese hardware and software can’t be “trusted” for even the chance of it happening. The USA has been proven time and time again to spy and do shit within services and hardware its “allies” use.
Imagine going after the important US vassal ‘israel’ after seeing the US enact the Hague invasion act two decades ago and not thinking of things like this. Truly shows they’re all idealistic liberals there without a clue which is why they usually make such good puppets. The only problem in this case is one of them couldn’t be intimidated away from consistency like most. I wouldn’t be surprised if he dies mysteriously in the coming years either as a further signal to not mess with the zionists or US.
