You don't get my point.
I *don't* care about american constitution.
American constitution is irrelevant for non american issues.
Example:
Kuweit hasn't attacked Iraq.
Iraqi congress and constitution say attacking Kuweit is OK.
Iraq attacks Kuweit.
Has the iraq handeled correctly ...
according to Sam H.s argueing SURE ... iraqi congress allowed him.
And as much as Iraqi constitution is irrelevant, when iraqi troups leave iraq,
as much is american constitution irrelevant for non american countries !!

No problem with that.
The problem arises if amercan conditions say OK, but international law says NO.
For any sane person international law wins.
If not, than this means that american law is applicable everywhere.
