I see where you are coming from, but it is clear that everything the US has been doing lately is illegal and I am not a lawyer so I don't risk anything by calling it as I see it.

Cuba, Iran, Ecuador, Yemen, and Venezuela have done nothing wrong and the US is clearly an illegal aggressor. They haven't even produced any justification other than sound-bite propaganda.

Also, absolutely insane to be threatening Canada, Mexico, and Greenland with invasion. Truly the US has positioned itself very similarly like Germany did during the start of WWII.

    So from a moral perspective, that is not how it works. Saying you knowingly know less than other people does not give you a moral license to say more...

    You could just call it "evil" instead of "illegal", and I would have no objection. Why do you insist on the word "illegal"?

    Oh, what I meant is I don't have a professional law degree to be threatened by making a legal statement such as "that is an illegal activity".

    I have studied human rights for most of my life and I can definitely say what the US has done is illegal. You don't have to take my word for it though.

    There is a reason the US refuses to participate in the ICC.
