The Space treaty with Russia the US had is dead. As to the U.N. its a defunct organization that doesnt know its dead yet.
Our constitution trumps the UN international law as far as our nation is concerned. SO screw them. If they hate the US we dont need to respect them either. Time to go back to a League of nations model of like minded nations instead of letting freeloading,non western view countries into the club.

Even Beijing's ambitious human spaceflight plans are cause for some concern, since most space-technology advances could have military applications, officials say.
