Because Americans are Cowards
17.02.2005 08:43
Bullies never take responsibility for their actions and fundamentally they are cowards.
Wrong doers must always receive an appropriate and proportionate punishment so give all your support to the ICC and may it succeed.

Wrong interpretation (of reason)
17.02.2005 14:41
An administration that badly WANTED to sign the treaty, have the US subject to the International Court might be able to push it through if they were strong AND willing to pay a steep price (would be forced to give way on all sorts of domestic programs in exchange. Remember that we are NOT a parliamentary democracy where the majority coalition gets to call all the shots. In the current situation totally impossible because that 10-20% I estimated utterly opposed is probably 80% in the Republican camp >. So they would have to have very substantial "opposiiton" support and since this is not a high priority issue there they would have to pay dearly for it(many "liberals' might favor "internationalism" but its not something dear to theri hearts).
Hey, you should be able to understand this. You in Britain have some fo your own people opposed to internationalism, the EU, etc. Well imagine that multiplied by ten.
