It is ironic that Knuth fumes about his personal lack of consent for the Iraq War (which was authorized and funded by dozens of votes in Congress) and in the same breath calls for imposing the legal rule of an unelected international criminal court on his fellow Americans.

Americans, a self-governed people, have established a proven system of rights and freedoms in our Constitution, and that sovereignty should not be transferred to international bodies -- particularly when those bodies are controlled by groups that plan to use the courts against U.S. and Israeli soldiers.
