Fair enough. I guess so I was saying, is that US might have been a signatory. In spirit, US has often advocated for applying rules of international humanitarian law where appropriate. Treaties like NATO, NAFTA, or various "coalitions of the willing" were never backed by a majority of the worlds population. (Maybe an agreement between China and India, might count?). I think the point isn't that US never believed in multilateralism - it did - but that it feels rules and laws should only apply to others.
