Seriously, I think what some are struggling to say is that if a left-saii-strategy is to take the international law fork in the road, then a consistent position is that the ethics/legal norms [Enlightenment universalism] of modernity compel that the same standards used to indict the surviving perpetrators of 9-11 be used against members of the US imperialist caste. This is based on a desire to contain both unilateralism and the multilateral fig-leaf and it's propaganda wing from further immolating with drivel citizens who are understandably disoriented and upset and mad about the atrocity.
Current law prevents me from sharing my Percosets with you. Nor am I allowed to send alcohol, cigars or contraband via mail carriers.
