An international treaty to allow war crime prosecutions by the UN is
opposed by the U.S. even after being watered down to get it's support.

Sen. Jesse Helms (R-NC) is a hard-core conservative.
He is opposed to the UN in general.

He led the effort to stop America's payment of it's UN dues.

He is also a militarist who claims to care
about our POW/MIAs, veterans and soldiers.

He is opposed to the UN's right to prosecute U.S. soldiers
 who might commit war crimes on foreign soil.

Clinton is also opposed to the treaty because his friends Wang Jun
and Henry Kissinger could be prosecuted for their ties to Pol Pot.

Kissinger Also Has To Worry About His
Bombing Campaign Over Indo-China.

Our new president, George Bush, is also
 opposed because an old family friend, former
National Security Advisor Brent Scowcroft, was
 also heavily involved in the Indo-China air attacks.

His dad was also tight w/ Manuel Noriega and Saddam Hussien.

If U.S. Soldiers Commit War Crimes They
Should Be Tried In An International Court.

It's Better Than Having Them Executed
On The Spot If They Get Captured.
