The International Criminal Court, a U.N. treaty negotiated in 1998, is dangerous to American sovereignty and puts U.S. citizens at risk. The Court will indict, prosecute, and imprison persons accused of "war crimes", "crimes of aggression", "crimes against humanity," and "genocide." These broadly defined crimes will be interpreted by ICC judges, and the U.S. must ratify the treaty in order to have one American judge sitting on the Court.
Even if the U.S. never ratifies the ICC, the Court still claims jurisdiction over every U.S. citizen. The ICC will not be required to provide Americans basic legal protections guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution. Despite theses flaws, President Clinton signed the ICC on December 31, 2000 but never submitted the treaty to the U.S. Senate for ratification. Over 30 countries have ratified the ICC, and it will enter into force when that number reaches 60.
