I don't find it unbelievable at all. Having heard Shay, and Blair, and Clinton, I think it was to be expected that they would try as hard as possible to avoid any review of the legality of their actions. They know this action is unlawful. As long as only the Yugoslavs and Russians say it, it doesn't matter. But if the World Court of Justice says it, the political dynamic changes dramatically, and the whole concept of New World Order (the new British-American World Empire) is threatened. It is sad. But perfectly believable.

James, come on, "domestic policies"? As if driving people from their homes and out of their territory has no international repercussions... As if it were no more serious than a decision about farm subsidies...No anti- Americanism on this thread, no sir...Let's not pile on, or we may end up giving Milosevic a medal...

I think that statement sums up the extent of the contradiction in you and Christopher's outlook. On one hand, you decry the NATO violation of the sovereignty of a nation, Yugoslavia, and then decry US and NATO insinuations that the World Court does not have jurisdiction. You want to have your cake and eat it too. You want absolute sovereignty for a nation to decide on matters of policy within its borders, and yet you want an international order which by its very nature denies the primacy of the nation-state. You cant have both.
