National Sovereignty No More?

Here's another good reason for the USA to get out of the UN. The fastest way to say goodbye to national sovereignty would be for the USA to go along with this scam. The following is an excerpt of the above article:

"The Bush administration is bitterly opposed to the new court and rescinded former President Bill Clinton's signature to the tribunal's statutes, arguing that it would expose U.S. soldiers and officials to frivolous law suits."

The reporter then adds:

"But supporters of the court say the ICC steps in only when a country is unwilling or unable to investigate, making it highly unlikely U.S. citizens would be targeted." (emphasis added).

Highly unlikely. That's not very comforting. In fact, it wouldn't be comforting if they swore on a stack of holy books from every possible religion that there was no way any U.S. citizens would be targeted. They could even cross their hearts and hope to die. I still wouldn't believe them.

Who gets to decide when a country is "unwilling" to investigate? I've got a gajillion dollars that says the good old US of A will not be given a say in it. As soon as we elect a President and Congress who are stupid enough to go along with this charade, we can all say goodbye to the freedoms we now take for granted. (By the way, I don't really have a gajillion dollars.)
