<Nonsense. International trade doesn't require any international institutions> Except the World Trade Organization and a century of institutions, institutional arrangements and standards of all kind, without which trade would be a fraction of what it is today.

<If you can hold everyone responsible for war crimes> That is exactly what we should do, rather than coming up with lame excuses for criminals as you seem so inclined to support. Why not get on the right side of this issue and promote the idea that justice should apply to all -- and of course it should absolutely apply to Hezbollah. Rather than try to blow up their leaders and make them martyrs -- put them on trial as the common criminals that they have shown themselves to be time and again. And apply the same standard to Israel and the US. Justice, that is what the world needs now. Not war and more war criminals.
