Bill Barr: We Respect the Sovereignty of Other Countries, But It Can’t Be Used to Allow Activities Preying on the U.S.

RUSH EXCERPT:
BARR: "Absolutely. Another doctrine of international law we will try to respect the sovereignty of other countries to allow activity predatory activity preying on the United States endangering our people. Killing our people by a government that’s either complicit in it or involved in it. It’s allowing its territory unable or unwilling to stop it, then we can come in and protect ourselves. That is something that example Obama used in justifying our intervention in Syria. It goes back to the Barbary pilots where precisely because against the United States. Congress was not notified on that. So this has been used throughout our history. The idea that we will respect sovereignty. But not worth being used as a shield for that type of predatory behavior."
