The International Criminal Court unduly ratcheted up the civil war in Libya by bringing charges against the Libyan government prior to the conclusion of the conflict.
The ICC is a hopeless mess. The idea was based on the general notion that if only there had been a world court in the 1930s, Hitler never would have been able to commit genocide. It is largely funded by the EU, and the United States is not a cooperating country (yet).
Since its creation in 2002, the ICC has only closed one case where they brought charges, and that was because the person died.
