President Trump’s national security adviser, John Bolton, is expected to announce today that the United States will adopt an aggressive stance against the International Criminal Court, including threatening sanctions against the court if it tries to investigate alleged war crimes committed by U.S. troops in Afghanistan. In Bolton’s speech today to the Federalist Society, he’s also expected to announce the closure of the Washington, D.C., office of the Palestine Liberation Organization, or the PLO, as retaliation for the Palestinians’ efforts to bring alleged Israeli military war crimes to the International Criminal Court.
