Hollywood needs to stay out of politics.
George Clooney’s wife, Amal Clooney, is now at the center of international controversy—and it could cost her access to the United States.
According to a report from the Financial Times, the high-profile human rights attorney is under scrutiny for her legal work with the International Criminal Court (ICC)—specifically, her alleged involvement in the ICC’s aggressive push to prosecute Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes related to Israel’s self-defense operation in Gaza.
This development comes just months after Hamas launched an unprovoked and brutal terrorist attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, which left over a thousand Israelis dead. In response, Israel carried out retaliatory strikes targeting Hamas strongholds. Now, the ICC has issued arrest warrants against Israeli leaders—sparking outrage from U.S. allies and drawing immediate condemnation from supporters of President Donald Trump’s foreign policy doctrine.
Trump Administration: “Sanctions Will Be Imposed”
Under a February 2025 executive order signed by President Trump, the United States declared it would impose sanctions on anyone involved in the ICC’s “baseless” and “illegitimate” actions targeting U.S. personnel and allied nations—particularly Israel, a longstanding American ally.
The order outlines serious consequences: blocking of assets, freezing of property, and revocation of U.S. entry rights for individuals affiliated with the ICC—including their family members. This could put Amal Clooney—a dual-qualified lawyer practicing in both the U.K. and U.S.—squarely in the crosshairs.
Even British officials have issued warnings to legal professionals engaged with the ICC, citing potential sanctions. Karim Khan, the British ICC prosecutor, has already been named as subject to U.S. penalties.
George Clooney’s American Ties Could Complicate the Situation
Despite Amal Clooney’s growing legal entanglements, her husband, actor George Clooney, is a well-known U.S. citizen and Democrat donor. The couple shares two children and owns several luxury properties, including homes in New York, France, London, and Lake Como, Italy.
They are currently residing in New York City, where Clooney is starring on Broadway in Good Night, and Good Luck. In a recent interview, Clooney praised the city and his family’s time there. But if Trump’s executive order is fully enforced, Amal Clooney could soon be barred from re-entering the country.
This case highlights growing tensions between globalist legal institutions and America First policies—and raises tough questions about how far the U.S. should go to defend its sovereignty, allies, and national interests.
The Bottom Line
With the ICC targeting Israeli leaders while giving equal footing to Hamas commanders—three of whom have since died—many Americans are questioning the credibility and agenda of international courts. Amal Clooney’s high-profile involvement now risks colliding with a renewed U.S. crackdown on foreign legal overreach, spearheaded by President Trump’s administration.
This is a developing story with major implications for U.S.-Israel relations, international law, and even Hollywood’s elite.
Anyone who supports the Hamas is an enemy to America and world freedom and should be banned from entering America. These people are a threat to freedom and to the sanctity of all freedom loving nations.
Why should an actor and his partner be any different. There shouldn’t be any hesitation in treating the Clooney case any different. George Clooney got wealth and fame in the west. If he wants to side with values and beliefs of people who want to destroy the west then boot him and his partner the hell out of the west.
