why in the world would you want an international court?! That would be madness. You would have countries like China holding the power of life and death over American citizens possibly. Anything to do with the UN I'm pretty much automatically against, they are an evil organization.
An international court would hold war criminals responsible. It's no big stretch to imagine why certain segments of the population aren't on board with this idea. And as far as blanket statements about the UN being an evil organization, it appears you know next to nothing about this enormously complex organization, which certainly has its faults but is not inherently bad. In fact, it does do some good in the world.
