I suggested that Israel should learn from the US months ago and just assert that The Hague is not relevant (**"only if the west did something wrong!1!"**). All that's left to do now is for Bibi to officially threaten the international court, like the US has done, because well, do as I say, not as I do! Rules-based order, forever! F international laws! And the west will fall in line, as always.

Ultimate protection and perfect alignment to the "Rules-based Order" of the world (i.e. the West).
It would allow them to hold others accountable to atrocities, but protects them from doing what they shun others for. The US is the world's one true beacon of democracy, freedom and human rights!
