No government gave up it's sovereignity by joining the United Nations treaty organization.... Why then is Iraq expected to surender it's right of self-defense at the order of that same foreign power

To: exodus
For the same reason Japan and Germany had to, they lost a war and signed surrender terms that required them to do so. What is so hard to understand about that?

*************************

An agreement made under duress has no force.

No man may be told to surrender his right of self-defense, not even if he was convicted of a crime.

No nation may be told to surrender it's right of self-defense, not even after losing a war.
