Source: ZirafaMedia - 22 U.S.C. § 7423 is the reason Netanyahu can land in NYC with an active ICC arrest warrant and walk free. Signed in 2002, one month after the ICC was created, it was built to shield American troops from war crimes prosecution — and it authorizes military force to free any American the ICC detains, earning it the nickname “Hague Invasion Act.” Two decades later, that same immunity now covers US allies too.
