What happened to the law and civilization ??
They don't apply to the Americans because they are too powerful. Their power is the source of their arrogance.
Very few nations wants to stand up to them, that is the problem here, and the ones who do, get punished, heavily. And another problem, when the US does such things, all the world can do is voice out their frustrations... what is voicing out and protesting going to do?
The only way to make them think twice of committing evil, is the 193 nations on Earth stand up against them, all together, and threaten them with force.
are you supposing the american Self appoint judge jury and executioner on the international stage??
Yes, the Americans have appointed themselves that and they are not afraid to practice it.
and therefore creating more rage at the US which only translates into terrorism??
That will be their undoing. I believe that another 9/11 will happen sooner or later, then they will decide to invade another nation, wasting trillions of dollars and then another 9/11 happens, invasion, waste trillions of dollars, another 9/11, invasion, waste money -> rinse and repeat.
They will keep doing this until their nation grows weak and perhaps, even collapse.
The US .by assassinating someone o f that caliber or any caliber........is playing fast and loose with the laws.......
They've been doing that for a long time now.
the are supposed t differentiate it from the more barbaric nations
They are corrupted with power is the problem and they feel no fear wielding this power because nobody stands up to them.
The US is no better than Kim........in the assassination category.....
They haven't been any better than a terrorist state. The intentions of their founding fathers, noble as they may seem, have long been corrupted. And the people there don't care because the battles are being fought thousands of kilometers away, so who cares if an entire family gets wiped out on the other side of the world.
it is doing it out in the open now showing its true colors.
They have shown their true colors for a very long time now. And once again, they will keep showing their true colors because they don't feel fear. They know the world will not unite against them.
while telling the world it is a nation of LAWS.
Nicaragua v. USA.
"The ICJ held that the U.S. had violated international law by supporting the Contras in their rebellion against the Sandinistas and by mining Nicaragua's harbors. The United States refused to participate in the proceedings after the Court rejected its argument that the ICJ lacked jurisdiction to hear the case. The U.S. also blocked enforcement of the judgment by the United Nations Security Council and thereby prevented Nicaragua from obtaining any compensation.
The Court found in its verdict that the United States was "in breach of its obligations under customary international law not to use force against another State", "not to intervene in its affairs", "not to violate its sovereignty", "not to interrupt peaceful maritime commerce", and "in breach of its obligations under Article XIX of the Treaty of Friendship, Commerce and Navigation between the Parties signed at Managua on 21 January 1956."
.... the U.S. still chose not to pay the fine."
"...law would collapse if defendants could only be sued when they agreed to be sued, and the proper measurement of that collapse would be not just the drastically diminished number of cases but also the necessary restructuring of a vast system of legal transactions and relations predicated on the availability of courts as a last resort. There would be talk of a return to the law of the jungle."
- Anthony D'Amato
The US also used the ICJ during the Iran hostage crisis.
........what kind of laws are they referring to??......those they make up as they go along??
Yep.
It is sheer lunacy and there are people here who defend them; that makes it even more insane.
