(like the World Court, International Law, the UN, etc.) bcnu, Mikem Osama bin Laden's brother could fly in US airspace 9/15/01, but I had to wait for FBI and CIA background checks, 'nuff said?

As the only superpower, the United States needs international law less than other nations. We can protect our interests with brute force if we want to, or if we believe that nothing else really matters in the end. What we cannot do is sneer at international law one day and invoke it the next. Nor can we pick and choose among the agreements we've signed and expect other countries not to do the same.
