So what? You would not have the global economy we have today if there were no international institutions and institutional arrangements to set the stage for world trade. You will not even begin to have expanded democracy, freedom and human rights until you apply yourself to tackling the legal issues that right now allow criminals to thumb their nose at the basic standards of civilized conduct. Instead you will have groups like Hezbollah and countries like Israel acting like rabid dogs and when the bloodbath subsides for a moment, these criminals will rejoice in the glory of their criminal conduct.
