naturally not.
But if they determined it, and actually CARRY IT OUT, they are breaking
international law.
Just as Germany did when starting WWII.
Hey ... it was in the national interest of Germany to start the war.
Was it justified than ??
What about the interests of the people you kill by enforcing american
interests. What about their interest to survive ?
Why are their lives (contarary to the human rights declaration) less worth than
american lives ?
I can't believe that you have written such nonsens ...
SH> We captured Noriega and we brought him back to the US for trial.
Who gives america the right, to drag its law to the whole world ??
What if panama captured the US president and punished him according to panamese
law ??
They would have the same right to do so as america.
PLEASE explain me who gives america the right ?

If I were born, you sure would have !

What would you say, if your arch enemy would sue you.
He would say there might be evidence that Sam killed sombody.
And the very same arch enemy who sued you, is also the judge who says that you
are guilty, and the person who hangs you ...

But than it can't claim that it has proof.
Imagine Saddam Hussein saying:
I have the proof that the US are mass murderers.
I so not show it to you, because I have to protect my sources, but believe me.
I would say FUCK OFF Saddam ...
just the same as I say to the US "proof" !
SH> Your country and everybody else's countries likewise do not prove to
SH> everybody all that they know about their enemies.
Sure ... but my country does not want to start a war ...
a tiny but important difference.

Who gives US military police the right to operate on the terretory of another
country ??
SH> I don't think the "world" should be worrying over whether the US would

I beg to differ.
I do worry a LOT about that.
SH> The sanctions are not causing any casualties. The UN and the US allow

They are causing MANY, MANY casualties ...
that is a sad fact !
