Democrat Mocks ICC as 'Harry Potter Ministry of Magic' Amid Sanctions Debate

Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) criticized the International Criminal Court (ICC) as politically motivated and irrelevant, likening it to the "Harry Potter School of Magic" in a Fox News interview. He condemned the ICC for targeting Israel while ignoring China and Syria, despite none of these countries being under the court's jurisdiction. The ICC's recent move to pursue arrest warrants for Israeli and Hamas officials has sparked bipartisan efforts in Congress to counteract the court, with President Biden also denouncing the ICC's actions. Neither the U.S. nor Israel recognizes the ICC's authority.
