This court is more important than ever since the installation of the Bush regime in the US and its assault on international law. I feel an imperative to let the UN know that I, at least want to see it continue its work and be prepared for more.

The Bush regime, inspired by the neoconservatives behind it and paid for with money from the giant greedy corporations that do not want to respect any laws either, would like to see the UN abolished. We must work together to see it is not and to call perpetrators of torture, aggressive war, and such to justice.

This is really important. Thank you to the WIP for publishing it.
