So did they pass a resolution as such that I'm unaware of? Is there an international court that is willing to persecute? And also because first and foremost the U.S. does not acknowledge The Hague. But the EU does acknowledge US laws. Which is nice. So, did they pass a resolution or not? On 6/17/2015 4:49 PM, Razer wrote:

You're conflating a bunch of things.
You can't have a criminal organization without crime, which require illegality, which requires laws which require a governing body. A government usually does not declare itself illegal so, no, it's not going to be a criminal enterprise.
Expecting criminals to adjudicate themselves as such is a little beyond the pall so lets cut to the chase here, based on one criminal action for the moment. The US subscribes to the UN charter and what passes for international law, which to a huge extent the US had a guiding hand in shaping.
The UN allowed the United States leeway to literally invade Iraq based on evidence presented known to be lies at the time they were told, by almost everyone in the US government in a position to authorize policy, diplomatic OR war-related, on Iraq
The US government and all of it's executives committed a criminal act under international law by invading Iraq under false pretenses and therefore IS an international criminal enterprise that continues to this day in that country by our continued, and eternal (at least until the oil from there and Iran runs out) presence.
