The Impact of US Policy toward the International Criminal Court on the Prevention of Genocide, War Crimes, and Crimes Against Humanity
Abstract
The United States has undermined the effectiveness of the International Criminal Court by refusing to join or support the Court; by withholding support for UN peacekeeping unless US citizens are exempted from international enforcement arising out of such operations; by pressing other countries to sign treaties exempting US citizens from Court proceedings; by cutting US foreign assistance to selected countries unless they sign immunity agreements with Washington; and by holding victims of war crimes and crimes against humanity hostage to obtaining exemptions for US citizens. These US policies make it more difficult to enforce the laws prohibiting genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
