And why…? from Immanuel Kant’s 2nd Preliminary Article of Perpetual Peace Between States 1795 2/2
![from Immanuel Kant’s 2nd Preliminary Article of Perpetual Peace Between States 1795 [2.-"No state having an independent existence-whether it be great or small-shall be acquired by another through inheritance, exchange, purchase or donation."
For a state is not a property (patrimonium), as may be the ground on which its people are settled. It is a society of human beings over whom no one but itself has the right to rule and to dispose. Like the trunk of a tree, it has its own roots, and to graft it on to another state is to do away with its existence as a moral person, and to make of it a thing.]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cvp3gpnddge7ddmrnxtauzxc/bafkreiax6m4flxwzli77tucwehskvszdlzixv4y46snkl7wvkpuqfqx4lu@jpeg)

The US government is now freely killing people at sea, in other lands, and on its own streets.
It is difficult to see what more is needed for Congress and the Supreme Court to exercise their constitutional duty to check and balance what is now a rogue state abroad and a gangster state at home.

The 🇺🇸 started an int armed conflict with Venezuela, without plausible legal justification. “Leaders lacking legitimacy” or failing to “fight organized crime” are not apt justifications that could turn bombing a country into anything but an aggression violating Art2(4) of the UN Charter.
