The ICC must investigate Hegseth and/or Trump. They must prove they don't only target poor countries.

Duterte, for instance, deserved to be locked up, and the ICC did an excellent job pursuing that case. But if the International Criminal Court truly wants to show that justice applies to everyone, it must also investigate who ordered the strike against the survivors on that Venezuelan boat. If those responsible — whether it’s Hegseth, Trump, or the person who actually pulled the trigger — ever travel abroad, Interpol should issue a red notice for their extradition to The Hague for trial.

The ICC has long faced criticism for focusing too heavily on Africa while sparing more powerful nations, but that seems to be changing now that Netanyahu faces a warrant from them.

And let’s be clear: the soldier who carried out the order isn’t off the hook either. As Slotkin, Kelly, and others have pointed out, soldiers are expected to refuse unlawful commands.
