The United Stares were the ones that started the concept of an international criminal court during the Neuremberg trials. How ironic to see they are now one if the biggest critics.
The USA is only a shadow of what it once was. You notice it with the tourists too: in the past: loud, omnipresent, fun to witness their blunt weirdness. Now they slink through the European cities, subdued, conversing in low voices, with Canadian flags on their outfits. I pity the fools.

Uh, I’d be careful about pining for the good old days of the US.
It once was a country built on slavery, then Jim crow laws and segregation.
Also genocide of native peoples.

But it was truly a superpower. Now it lost its power and respect.

What's the point in having international organisations when none of the actual important countries are members

You're right. We should stop persecuting war criminals and genociders.
