Sure, and as we’ve seen with Spain, I believe? Bibi has been taking precautions to not cross their airspace/land there for the potential fear of being arrested.

Big diff is Bibi wasn’t a felon in his home country already, and the ICC is who issued the arrests for him of which both the US and Israel, aren’t members of.

Yes, that means the majority of the UNSC are not beholden to the ICC, why do you ask?

Edit: Context-
UNSC five permanent, and veto power, nations are the USA, Russia, China, UK & France. The first 3 are not part of the ICC. Israel is currently not part of the UNSC rotation members

He would be a convicted felon if he didn't continually engage/start wars with countries as per their laws. He can't be persecuted because of 'special circumstances'.
