    I honestly don't know enough about the level of standard of the ICJ's other findings. Do we really want them to have a global cop force to back up their threats?

      I mean fuck it, why not. Any court on the level of a constitutional court or the ICJ with no standing army is always going to be finger wagging

      There's a debate to be had about the existence of these types of courts in the first place but if you actually believed in them you'd be pro them having a standing army
