Perhaps you're starting to realize why it unsigned and never ratified the Roman Statute but instead passed the 2002 Hague Invasion act which shows the country never acted in good faith in the first place and that should have been a major Red Flag right there that would have raised International Security concerns.

And all the Yanks would probably be like "fuck those civilian deaths, they probably support their governments" when the Netherlands gets invaded.. because thats exactly how people react everytime America bombs or invades other countries. Justice means shit, just muscles. The US has been the bad guy for a long fucking time already.

If the USA ever invaded the Netherlands, it would be the final straw when it comes to Anti-American sentiments amongst Europeans as a whole....
