and when the US said its military people, even when engaged in homicidal behaviour, are not subject to the international court?

Notice that the US reliably fails to pay its dues to the UN?

Observe that the US still hasn't destroyed its chemical weapons as it was obliged to do by treaty?

Funny how the US has a blind spot when it comes to international law as it applies to itself. It elevates its own interests and its own constitution over international law whenever it suits it to do so.

And yet it is assiduous about applying international law to other countries.

Hypocrisy isn't usually thought of as a virtue. The way some US politicians mount the pulpit and talk down from it is intensely annoying.
