Senator Tom Cotton Defends Israel, Suggests U.S. Might Invade Netherlands Over ICC Warrants
In response to the ICC issuing arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, Senator Tom Cotton slammed the court as a “kangaroo court” and cited the Hague Invasion Act, a U.S. law allowing military intervention in the Netherlands to shield Americans from ICC prosecution.
His statement highlights U.S. double standards: supporting ICC actions against adversaries like Russia while threatening military force when allies like Israel face scrutiny.
Cotton’s remarks even imply the U.S. might take extreme measures to protect its geopolitical interests.
