  If you read the transcript you'll find that he said:

  1.) He would never give another nation a veto on American security
  (this invalidates your entire argument)  and,

  2.) When you lead your nation to war, you have to prove to its people
  that the war is necessary via reasoning that, "passes the test, passes
  the global test."

  In context it's clear that by "global" he meant "complete" not
  "worldwide" as you ascribe to him.  It was a very poor choice of words
  since it allows people to misrepresent his view.
