Journalist: Speaking of the rules-based order that you say you’re defending, ICC issued warrants for 🇮🇱 officials for crimes against humanity, will you rethink your support
Pentagon: The US rejects the decision
Journalist: You’re rejecting it based on technicalities and jurisdiction, what about the allegations
Pentagon: We don’t see eye to eye
Journalist: So what is the legal opinion you’re basing your rejection on

Journalist: So if you don’t have a legal assessment, how can you reject it
Pentagon: We reject the Court’s decision, that doesn’t mean it had to go through a legal process
