Its a documented fact that the USA, has no Respect ,regard or fear of international law, why then should Iran?

Question

What moral or legal grounds has the USA got to prevent the styled Rogue, or Pariah nation from breaking international Law

Answer 1

Well, I am not excusing the U.S., but hardly want Iran to send Israelis into the sea. Iran funds militant activity by insurgents in Palestine and Lebanon and then wonders why the Israeli-Palestinian conflict can't be solved.

Answer 2

The Answer is: Iran, should enjoy the same right of all the other countries. It is therefore licit that they have nuclear power as the USA.

Moreover USA did not respected international laws at least three times this year:

1. In the case of Antigua Against USA the WTO condemned some US economical activities as illegal and monopolistic. The USA did not respected the request to change these laws

2. In Iraq have been used prohibited weapons (sources rai news 24; amnesty; red cross international).

3. The international law states that no person can be kept as a prisoner without a process - in Guantanamo Bay no one of the presoner has the right to have a legal process.

4. Last year an important italian (the Imam of Milan) as been kindnapped by US officials in Italy (it is possible to read the news everywhere as the US admitted this act)

I could keep on for a day....

The conclusion is that there are no international laws, there are no organization but only single countries that try to conquer the others. Those who will have more weapons will not be invaded by the USA

Answer 3

The Internation Crime Committee (ICC) was established by the United Nations with the Rome Statute in July 1998.
http://www.un.org/law/icc/

President Clinton signed the Rome Statute on December 31, 2000. The following is a link to the webpage of members.
http://untreaty.un.org/ENGLISH/bible/englishinternetbible/partI/chapterXVIII/treaty11.asp
The Congressional Record for SEPTEMBER 10, 2001 shows that someone entered into the record without reading it to the members of Congress words to the effect that Mr. Clinton's signature was not sufficient to commit the US Government to the ICC. The link to the member countries indicates a footnote #7 next the the United States. Footnote 7 indicates that a communication had been received on May 6, 2002 informing the Secretary-General of the United Nations that the United States does not intend to become a party to the treaty.

It is my understanding that this was done because the US did not want the International Court to be able to judge the US and that the US was in the process of making their own agreements with other nations independantly on a one to one basis where the US was above the Law.

I don't believe the Bush Administraion has any grounds at all moral or legal to deny any other country the rights that that country has under the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) that is still a legal Treaty. http://disarmament.un.org/wmd/npt/index.html

The US has violated the treaty countless times by spreading nuclear weapons to Israel, Pakistan and India. Their countless violaitions against humanity look pale compared to other nations.

The US also used WMDs on it own citizens on 9/11/01.

If the towers really came down in a pancake manner like both government reports state, then why has NYC blocked off the street that ran beside the towers because they are still finding human remains from the over 1,000 victims of the collapse.

Israel is keeping quiet about Iran because Israel has not admitted to having a nuclear weapon and has used WMD as recently as their unwarrented invasion of Lebannon.

Iran has the right under the treaty to seek nuclear power for peaceful purposes.

Since the UN passed a resolution to seek the prepetrators of September 11, 2001 on/or about that time that they start an international investigation into the events of 9/11/01 and stop chasing the "radical terrorists" that are figments of a warped immagination. The real terrorists are part of the Bush Administration and they should be charged and tried in the International Criminal Court just like Sadam Hussein was.
Iraq was better off before the US invaded.

Answer 4

This is A good question, but would just for a moment each one of the people who are into defaming the U.S.A. and our own government, take a step back and think logic about the whole situation. Firstly think on this looking at the latest tragic news. Gun man kills 30+ college young people in the U.S. This horrible event has the world in shock and unanimous condemnation of gun control laws or lack of them in the U.S. and quite rightly so I perchance think that the author of this question would probably agree with the above. Hopefully the U.S.goverment could take this chance to change the gun control laws./ paradoxically how could you the questioner expect American or British governments to give any old government permission to get and control such

Answer 5

Because once you break the law, you're in no position to reprimand others for doing so. Iran should stay on the moral high ground and criticize the US from that lofty position. Two wrongs don't make a right.

Answer 6

The tomb and you qualify for the assistance that Cho required. So sad to think that miserable hypocrites like you probably reside among us in the free world!!! You should be building the megamosque if you're really such fans, and may it fall on you as well. Better yet, you should live in your beloved environment from which you obviously have fled for the sake of comfort and convenience. You miserable, despicable creep! Somebody else said it better...you don't even deserve an answer.

Answer 7

Another 'Lets have a go at the Yanks' Muppet !
As a Brit I say thank f**k for the Yanks, without which the rest of the civilsed world would be terrorised back into the dark ages, why then should Iran ? dosen't even deserve an answer.

Answer 8

Its not up to the POTUS. In some cases we have signed treaties and other agreements, with the approval of congress, and have agreed to be bound by particular laws and regulations. This has been true for generations...its not a new thing at all. Where was all this BS about our constitution being "null and void" THEN?

Answer 9

It may be a documented fact, but I think that applies to the Bush administration rather than the USA and its people.

The conduct of Bush and his clique certainly undermines any moral grounds the U.S.A. may try to exert upon countries like Iran.

Answer 10

'Documented fact'...must come from your personal
document files.....they don't exist anywhere else. Iran
is doing what it wants to do...and what ever little piece
of ground you are on is doing what it wants to do...just
don't go around breaking international laws like being
pirates on international seas...looks bad for your image
..as it did for Iran.
