Katch, we've covered that issue before. There is an argument to be made that the US violated international law when it invaded Iraq. It's not an open and shut case, but there are reasonable minds that take that position. But under US law there is no debate. The US war in Iraq is not illegal under US law. That's the difference. The World Court and "international law" don'tt really have any jurisdiction over nations or individual citizens unless there is a special tribunal as in the Kosovo war crimes trials or the country agrees to be bound by one or the other. US law does have jurisdiction over its citizens. If there is a conflict the US citizen is called into account under US law.
