Good for him. fyi, alot of normal people do not know Bibi has a warrant from the ICC for warcrimes.
Edit: just for context, I would say this is a way to expand the permission structure since he doesn't have the power, but he does have the bully pulpit.
Exactly... As a Dutch person i would even like to highlight that the USA has a plan ready to invade the ICC if any American, or other person they like, will be held there
The US wouldn't be able to pull off that plan. They assumed that all of Europe would back the play, maybe 20 years ago, now every AA weapon in Europe would be aimed at those blackhawks 🤣
This is not like those hypothetical plans. In 2002, Congress passed The American Service-Members' Protection Act, known as the Hague Invasion Act, which authorizes the president to use "all means necessary and appropriate to bring about the release of any U.S. or allied personnel being detained or imprisoned by, on behalf of, or at the request of the International Criminal Court.”

Social and Behavioral Expansion involves shifting collective norms to make previously uncommon actions feel acceptable or default
This moves the bar and normalize the thought that BiBi is a criminal/should be arrested. Now this puts pressure on BiBi (also why Israel spends 700+mil this year for PR).
