I'd submit that it is already beyond a deterrent.
Nuclear weapons have been used only twice, within days of each other and haven't been used in over a half century since. How many ICC warrants have been issued in their short existence?
Now it is being used against a dictator who is still in power. They just gave him another reason to go down fighting instead of giving up.
