I find it horrible that the US expects an exemption from justice, on any basis. If an international war crimes tribunal is to mean anything, there must be no exemptions.

I'd say so.

You do realize it is the US that wants to be exempt?

Of course; I posted the article and highlighted various portions of it, did I not?

So no, I cannot stomach that.

But you still support the U.N., which under its bureaucratic auspices granted that exemption. Correct?

Yes, no country, no matter how powerful or influential, should ever be exempt from justice. Why this is not crystal clear to everyone is beyond me.
