You had to click your way out & back to a full screen.

Had enough of these control freaks.

How does that apply against a state actor that not only refuse to recognize the jurisdiction of the ICC, but bas legislatively threatened military invasion of The Hague should action be taken against it? One that welcomes those with ICC warrants for their arrest with not risk or repercussions?

Two black and white photographs side by side showing different aspects of a standing stone. Both stone faces are carved with a range of symbols throughout, mainly geometric patters, including three-dimensional bosses marking out the shape of a cross, and a range of carvings depicting scenes involving animals and humans. The stone is surrounded by a protective glass enclosure. In the background bits of scenerey, including the nearby sea are visible.
