edit: although ICC has had plenty of opportunities to punish war crimes from various states in the past, wonder why they decided to make a move now. because of the scale?
War criminal is war criminal. Nothing else factors in. And that they point both out at the same time makes it easier for them to avoid being seen one sided.
Ongoing attempted starvation of 2.4 million captive population and creation of conditions for famine. Attempted destruction of all means of civilized life for the entire population. I don't think there's been anything like that anytime since ICC was established. Pretty egregious.
