Positive / Negative toward: UN approval of the ICC president's video report amid US sanctions
Positive points
The countries lined up against this are exactly the ones that should be worried about it.
Even if the UN is weak, a big majority backing this still means something.
It's funny that the US is now grouped with Russia in opposing this.
Negative points
The ICC and UN look powerless and biased, so I don't see what they're for.
If they're going after others, why not act on China or Xinjiang too?
Japan shouldn't be paying so much for these bodies; it's a waste of tax money.
