America and Americans broadly do not respect “international law” as an idea. We don’t vote for representatives in a UN House of Reps or UN Senate. And if we did why would we wish to be beholden to a majority rules vote when that majority combined might be inferior militarily.

Glass half full. He probably made a massive difference in the lives of those 20 in those few short months. Maybe even turned some lives around.
Since when is it illegal to sell tritium in the US? Gun companies selling tritium glow in the dark sights all the time.
