France Challenges United States on Sudan Trials

This is just France's attempt to cut us out of the process, since we aren't members of the ICC. I'm sure there's no other reason behind it, other than a big FU to the United States. It may get serious. They may try to use this court to try our officials for whatever they deem to be war crimes or human rights violations. And most of these member-states have a different idea of human rights than we do. Maybe China will file a complaint that we aren't providing for our citizens' "right" to free housing and income equality. We won't bother to show up for court, but then the UN will put sanctions on us. What then? If I was in charge, we'd cut them off completely. Shut down their NY headquarters and send them packing.
