international war crimes should be pushed and protected by the ICC.

Of which the US is not a signatory.

And they wrote a law basically admitting they would invade The Hague to prevent any US politicians or soldiers being prosecuted.

The United States is not a member of the International Criminal Court (ICC). The Act authorizes the President of the United States to use “all means necessary and appropriate to bring about the release of any U.S. or allied personnel being detained or imprisoned by, on behalf of, or at the request of the International Criminal Court”. This authorization led to the act being colloquially nicknamed “The Hague Invasion Act”, as the act allows the President to order U.S. military action, such as an invasion of The Hague, where the ICC is located, to protect American officials and military personnel from prosecution or rescue them from custody.

The bill was introduced by U.S. Senator Jesse Helms (Republican from North Carolina) and U.S. Representative Tom DeLay (Republican from Texas), as an amendment to the 2002 Supplemental Appropriations Act for Further Recovery From and Response to Terrorist Attacks on the United States (H.R. 4775). The amendment (S.Amdt 3597) was passed 75–19 by the US Senate, with 30 Democrats and 45 Republicans voting in support. The bill was signed into law by President George W. Bush on August 2, 2002.

The US sure sounds like a place full of lawless motherfuckers that only serve to protect themselves.

Laws like this, where they basically refuse any sort of accountability to the international community, are literally why the International Criminal Court exists. Because it’s way too easy for governments to just write laws that say “What we did wasn’t illegal, because we wrote this law that made it legal.”

What a lawless hellhole.
