“Obama declares that the U.S. membership in the UN and solemn agreement to its Charter is irrelevant. He does not intend to abide by the agreement and thus international law. What messages does this declaration send? Obama is saying he’ll break or adhere to a compact on a selective basis as he pleases. Next week, he might support a UN action and the following week not. In this same speech, Obama says ‘We cannot raise our children in a world where we will not follow through on the things we say, the accords we sign,…’ He doesn’t seem to realize that his statement about going it alone regardless of the U.N. smashes that accord that the U.S. signed.”
