The UN charter is not a treaty, it's merely a document much akin to our constitution. In fact, the UN charter is based almost solely on our constitution. We create the organization to give a voice to nations in an open political forum. We didn't create the UN as a check/balance organization for our own international affairs.

I could rant about the UN, the oil for food scandal, how they do not serve our interests and should be dissolved especially since we're the primary fundee. But the only fact that matters is UN Charter =\= treaty, and therefore doesn't not equate to law, and since the it's isn't a treaty, then it isn't law. And since it isn't law, our actions can't be illegal, because a)there's no law prohibiting our nation from making decisions we feel will protect our interests and b)as a sovereign nation we don't answer to any international authority, never have and never will.

assertion that the Americans are in
an illegal war, I say, Prove it, take US

it, otherwise stop your lying nonsense.

If your own countries won't take
action against the Americans and
it's an illegal war, then they TOO are
criminals. LMAO

Believing that this is an illegal war
is like believing in the moon landing
as being a hoax. just absurd.

It's an illegal war because it is against our Constitution (which is the law of the land).

WTF?!?!

Why is the UN Charter not a treaty?

Treaty - it is a contract, an agreement, a pact between International Organizations and Countries and its States under International Law.It can be pertaining to trade and peace or some other agreement

Are you saying that the UN Charter IS NOT a contract, an agreement, a pact between International Organizations and Countries and its States under International Law, pertaining to trade and peace or some other agreement.

Do you have anything to support this opinion - or is it just something you have made up to try to justify to yourself the illegal, unprovoked invasion that has murdered hundreds of thousands of civilians?

The United Nations Charter is a treaty of the United States, and as such forms part of the "supreme law of the land" under the Constitution, Article VI, Clause 2.
http://www.lcnp.org/global/iraqstatement3.htm

The United Nations Charter (1945) is both a multilateral treaty and the constituent instrument of the United Nations.http://www.britannica.com/eb/topic-6...United-Nations

The United Nations Charter is the treaty that forms and establishes the international organization called the United Nations[1]. It was signed at the United Nations Conference on International Organization in San Francisco, California, United States, in 1945, by 50 of the 51 original member countries
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Charter

The U.N. Charter is a treaty. It is part of a larger body of international law. The United States, as a United Nations member, is bound by its terms.
Article 2 (4) of the Charter says nations: “Shall refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state.”

Do you have anything to support your opinion?
