Would you cite where the Supreme Court has said Vattels Law of Nations is the law of the land?
When the term “law of nations” isn’t capitalized, it isn’t a reference to Vattel’s book, it’s a reference to public international law which Vattel’s book is named after. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_international_law
