UN Says Trump’s ‘Unacceptable’ Boat Strikes Violate International Law

Which global government enforces international law? Ah that’s right, there is none. Might as well say it violates galactic or universal law.
-
People follow it by agreement and the idea is they face sanctions if they don't. It's unlikely America will face direct sanctions. However they are unlikely to find many friendly partners moving forward. The more heinous acts, the less other countries can overlook it.
It's not just USA. The more countries that skirt international law, the more others also do the same and the less others listen to America. Putin doesn't care about international law when invading Ukraine. Then china stops caring about consequences for invading Taiwan etc.
It's stuff like this that makes the international community more afraid of Trump. The grifting and grafting is an internal problem. The fascism is a humanity problem. The breakdown in rule of law is a global problem.

Maybe if someone lets Miss Universe know she can send the message on.

Should have him arrested next time he steps outside the Untied States
-
I would pay good money for this
-
Thing of the ratings this would get, uyge, tremendous ratings like you’ve never seen before.
-
-
Oh please let's make Trump an international criminal
-
The people who make up the Trump administration are directly responsible for millions of people dying through their malice and ineptitude. They are guilty of genocide, war crimes, and general crimes against humanity.
-

-
So declare him a war criminal, and arrest him anytime he leaves America.
That's why George W Bush can't leave the country. He's wanted everywhere in the world as a war criminal.
-
I say go tit for tat and just put a bounty on his head, since hes so comfortable doing that to other heads of state
-
They aren't wanted, although it might be a better world if they were https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2014/jul/17/facebook-posts/are-george-w-bush-dick-cheney-unable-visit-europe-/

He's not.
-
PLEASE!
-
-
Feel free to arrest and indict the fucking orange bastard
-
Of course and the International Criminal Court start a case.
-
ICC doesn’t have authority over the US because they don’t recognize it.

-
All those western countries who was saying israel has to defend itself. Why are you not saying Venezuela has the right to defend itself?
-
Venezuela can't defend itself against the US. The US has been very good at keeping South America in check. They are basically all vassals to the US. The moment someone gets out of line the CIA shows up for regime change.
The white elephant in the room is the US military holding the entire world hostage.
-
The US is the premier terrorist state in the world.
-
I don't think venezuela has a choice. The usa is already trying to do the coup
-
-
Doesn’t apply to countries that won’t allow American corporations to exploit their people and natural resources
-
There's no mention about any official stance regarding whether or not Venezuela can defend itself. So I don't know why you are bringing this up.
-
The west selective outrage regarding human right abuses and war crimes
-
-
-
What is the UN going to do about it? Israel can wipe out an entire population, murder is lagalized
-
Aipac/russia has control over the US , uk and some of the EU govt.
-
-
And nothing will happen
-
That's because Trump made a deal with the devil for immunity from all consequences. The devil didn't realize it would mean there were also no consequences for Trump for making the deal

-
The UN needs an army or at least a sanctioning body that can do real things.
-
The army would just be an arm of its strongest members to ensure they stay the strongest.
-
They do have the ability for sanctions, the USA hoewer has veto on that so...
-
-
Issue an international arrest warrant for the entire administration please. They are literally manufacturing another Native American genocide and we need the world to help us stop this madness.
-
Can the UN even do anything to the United States if they have a unilateral security council veto? I would think that the USA would successfully find a way to argue that sanctioning them for crimes against humanity is not considered a "procedural" decision.
-
Can the UN even do anything
no
to the United States
gods no
if they have a unilateral security council veto?
the "don't do that" button does, quite effectively, prevent the UN from doing anything, and for some godforsaken reason 5 countries all have one
successfully find a way to argue
they don't need to do that, that's what the "don't do that" button is for

-
Someone stop this Shittler
-
its like calling the israeli expansion into gaza unacceptable, but nothing is being done.
-
countries need to start making treaties about military spending and isolate ones that spend over an agreed upon maximum plus have checks for hidden spending.
ok so....do something about it. oh wait...you can't.
just another dog and pony show.
Now I want to go to a dog show.
What about the ponies? Are you a ponyphobe or something?
