The UN must be shut down if it can not stop the occupation of Iraq

Depending on which list one takes most seriously, there are 190 – 250 countries in the world. Notwithstanding natural endowments, historical cultural and political economic specificities, all countries in the world are part of a (single) “international” society or “system” of states that emanated from the Peace of Westphalia in 1648. In this context, perhaps more so since the end of the Second World War, every single country in the world is fundamentally accountable to prevailing international law – to the extent that international laws actually exist, and that such laws are, actually, enforceable.(1) The notable exception to this rule is the the United States, which is probably the only major rogue state in the world – by rogue state I refer to a country that has basically placed itself beyond the reach and jurisdiction of international law, a country that will bomb, maim, murder, invade and occupy any country or sovereign society it wishes to bomb, maim, murder, invade and occupy without being held accountable. See, for instance, the book, Rogue Nation: American Unilateralism and the Failure of Good Intentions by Clyde Prestowitz. (Read Further)
