#1 Libya is not an ICC member state and is therefore not obliged to arrest the court's suspects. Several members of the UN security council - the United States, Russia and China - are not ICC members, but voted in favour of referring Libya to the court.

You got that. Some members have referred a fellow member to an institution of which it's not a signatory. And the institution is one that referral members themselves have refused to be signatories. Gee whiz...this Global Governance stuff sure can be confusing. It's almost as if they can do whatever the fuck they want.
