the U.S. response — that the Geneva-based council and the General Assembly have no role in relation to killings during an armed conflict — “is simply untenable.”

Hey, UN Human Rights Guy.. Shove it!

Good point, how about we just start calling them exactly what they are, “Foreign Nations Association,” for they sure are not united, and for the longest time have violated their own charter, rules and policies, and have done everything possible to foment killing around the world for their own benefit. The usefulness, if there was ever any, has long passed. No American should have their labor or taxes be part of or sponsor to a group that has one thing in common, which is to stand idly by paying lip service to the concepts of life, inalienable rights and freedom…if this group is so wonderful, have them go outside the U.S. and do something to prove themselves; then get back to us with the results in 10 to 15 years.

It is called war. If Islamicists want civil rights, they have to stop making war.

[UN Human rights Lawyer Philip Alston said that unless the Obama administration explains the legal basis for targeting particular individuals.... “it will increasingly be perceived as carrying out indiscriminate killings in violation of international law.”]

Obama can
1. Plead his case to the U.N., and in which case the UN may decide that he is a war criminal.
2. Declare that American law, which gives the President the responsibility for the defense of the United States, overrules “international humanitarian law”, whatever that means.

Which one will it be, Barak? Comeon! This would be an easy one for any other US President (except maybe Clinton).

Concur. Let the blue-helmet squad run up into the mountains and do that finger-wagging thing at the mass-murdering Al-Q'aedists and their knuckle-walking Taliwhacker pals, and then come back down and tell us all how it went.
