This past week, the International Criminal Court (ICC) Chief Prosecutor announced that she is ready to open an investigation over whether or not Israeli settlements in the West Bank are considered war crimes.
The ICC is supposed to prosecute countries responsible for serious crimes like genocide or mass deportation. There are 124 territorial disputes around the world and in none of them is building homes considered a war crime.
