25:56Now PlayingUS Secretary of State Marco Rubio has launched a campaign to dismantle the ICC. No it’s not satire: His announcement on Monday that international law hamstrings US foreign policy and poses an “intolerable threat to our sovereignty” kicked off Little Narco’s latest side quest: “to protect Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant and others who are under consideration for indictment by the International Criminal Court as they perpetrate a genocide,” explains Craig Mokhiber, longtime human rights lawyer and former director of the New York Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights.
