Constitutionalists are challenging UN entanglements and the call to war. Some false conservatives are denouncing this principled stand as unpatriotic, even treasonous.

While intoning platitudes about ending impunity and advancing the rule of law, advocates of the UN’s new ICC are actually establishing a global kangaroo court.

A UN criminal court is a dangerous idea in the making.

When the New World Order architects at the Council on Foreign Relations prattle about sovereignty, they mean something entirely different from independent nation-states.

Glenn Greenwald, the scourge of progressives and neocons alike, has nailed George W. Bush speechwriter David Frum on his explanations of the motivations behind the 2003-2011 war in Iraq.

In a statement posted on the State Department website on March 15, Secretary of State John Kerry expressed U.S. support for the UN Arms Trade Treaty.

“The United States is steadfast in its commitment to achieve a strong and effective Arms Trade Treaty that helps address the adverse effects of the international arms trade on global peace and stability,” read the statement.

Ten years ago Katharine Gun leaked a secret email from the U.S. National Security Agency ordering her and others in her section at the U.K.'s Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ) to spy on diplomats resisting efforts to support a UN resolution in favor of an attack on Iraq. It cost her her job and her career but nearly averted the Iraq War.

Robert Gibbs, former press secretary for President Obama, said Sunday he was under orders during his White House years not to discuss or even acknowledge the existence of a "drone program." 

According to Senator Marco Rubio, "Our prosperity depends upon the liberal international order that America has supported since the end of World War II." In fact, his statements on foreign policy lead inevitably to the conclusion that he would expand that "liberal international order."

As Congress considers creating a court with jurisdiction over the drone war, the UN launches an investigation into killing by executive decree.
