U.S. Senator Marco Rubio has issued strong condemnations against both the International Criminal Court (ICC) and the Iranian regime. He warned the ICC against attempting to enforce its warrants on Americans, likening such an action to a Roman general's dismissal of laws when faced with military might. "If the people of the International Criminal Court are foolish enough to try and enforce their worthless warrants on Americans, our response will likely be the same as that of the Roman general Pompey, who told those who tried to rely on their city's laws to stand before his legions: 'Stop quoting laws to people who hold swords,'" Rubio stated.
Rubio also sharply criticized Iran's government, asserting that no nation in human history has devoted more resources to funding global terrorism than Tehran. He detailed the regime's brutal repression of its own citizens, stating, "They have killed tens upon tens of thousands of their own people. They slaughtered them in the streets and killed the wounded in hospitals and those who treated them. This is what they do to their own people. Imagine what they would do to us if they had nuclear weapons."
