You ducked the question. Why do you want the US to be defeated? If you please. Or simply deny that you want the US to be defeated. That is pretty up front?
<edit> Do you know how painful it is to beat up on idiots? It is not something I take pride in doing. But... somebody has to do it.

Yea. All war is "wrong". I can't and won't argue that. So is the slavery that Saddam put onto his property for all of his reign of terror.
Nobody in this thread has asked the most basic question as to the "world criminal court".
Why does the US have to join it to make it work? We are a pittiful little five percent of the worlds population. If it is so important... why not let the 95% just do it? Or have I missed an important point along the way? Which wouldn't be a first... believe me.
And don't say that the "US has veto rights in the security council". What makes the UN the only sponsoring agent? If it is so important and all?
