While the prosecutor’s statement did not mention Israel, it was issued after Israeli and US officials have warned of consequences against the ICC if it issues arrest warrants over Israel’s war on Gaza.

This is interesting.

What happens if a country's leader is labeled a war criminal, but the US and its allies refuse to sanction it?

There have been multiple instances where Israel's allies have refused to vote against it at the UN, and if that doesn't make a difference, the US has vetoed any vote.

We just might find out. From my perspective it's a very interesting thing to watch.
