International law is an extension to the Constitution of the United States once it is signed and ratified by our government so breaking international law is breaking the laws of this land.

Sure you are free to honor or withdraw just like any leader was free to honor or withdraw from and agreement but one has to accept the global consequences of this withdraw. Like it or not, a global government is forming with or without the US and one day will come where all of the countries in the world will force the US to accept these laws in full or you shall see an economic Goliath tumble when it's global resources are restricted by this international assembly.

Except that in the ICC you do not have the protections of the US Constitution, nor even a Common Law priviledge of a jury of your peers!

Do you want to see Geo. Bush and the pilots of the stealth fighters who bombed Saddam's hidey-hole charged as war criminals because Libya, Chad and Syria happen to be heading the 'UN Human Rights Commission'?

Is that what you want?

The US will not be forced. We have, and will, go to war to protect out interests.

or you shall see an economic Goliath tumble when it's global resources are restricted by this international assembly.

Of course the members of the 'international assembly' only have economies because of the global resources we are buying.

You're an idiot and have been blown out of the water on this thread....

My, my. Lenin's dream. But today, only Chirac proffers this. Much of the international community would like to handcuff the US via regulation and entanglements. Notice these agreements are honored in the breach by most nations, which only demonstrates the true purpose. As long as the United States stands on the side of human freedom, (which, among other things, devolves political power to the lowest possible level), the great majority of the world's people will ultimately side with us against the "one worlders."
