"At the current time, it seems like international law is enforced by the US, at least the international laws that it agrees with and those that serve it's current interest."

That seems reasonable to me.

"Other international law just seems to generate harsh language and more UN resolutions. "

Probably because we have no good reason to support the other ones or because it would not be in our best interests to support them. Do you find your self supporting laws for which there you can find no good reason and that are not in your best interests?

Any "International Law" would have to be fair, just, in every nation's best interests, not incompatible with the US constitution, and in my own personal self interest, for me to lend support (and I do me lend...I reserve the right to withdraw that support at any time I see fit).
