That is how any legal system works, just to be clear.

That's not how the international legal system works

  • I mean to be fair.. the "international legal system" generally doesn't really work. It only works when governments think it works for them.

    This usually means weaker (militarily/economically) countries banding together to hopefully provide some dis-incentives for strong arming.

    It only works until someone calls the bluff.
