International law is a set of customs, rules and principles governing the relations and conduct of nation/states with each other, as well as with international organizations and individuals[cite: 16]. Issues that fall under international law include trade, human rights, diplomacy, environmental preservation, and war crimes[cite: 16].
Overview of International Legal Operations
International law largely operates upon the consent of participating nations because no governing body exists to explicitly enforce international agreements[cite: 16]. It includes concepts of law—such as statutes, property law, and tort law—that are common in many Western domestic legal systems[cite: 16]. Treaties and the threat of economic sanctions work to create heavy incentives for abiding by international law[cite: 16]. Substantive law, procedural law, due process, and remedies are also key facets of international law[cite: 16].
Even though several nations have signed on to the charter of the United Nations, the United Nations cannot enforce those laws directly in the same way that a sovereign state can enforce its laws domestically[cite: 16]. International law is enforced through treaties which are binding agreements between nations that govern the rights and obligations of participating countries[cite: 16]. Sovereign states use treaties to cooperate on various issues such as military defense, environmental conservation, and trade[cite: 16]. International treaties generally cannot conflict with domestic law[cite: 16]. The use of international conventions, i.e. treaties, was codified in the 1969 Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties[cite: 16].

If we are to free ourselves, we must move as a Nation[cite: 16]. Nations move with one mind[cite: 16]. Nations are united in their Culture[cite: 16]. Our issues with the several United States of America and the U.S. corporation are issues between two nations, and must be looked at and dealt with from an International perspective[cite: 16]. The one main goal of the Moorish Republic is the international recognition of Moorish Republic Nationality[cite: 16].
Our path to freedom comes through the enforcement of the Human Rights treaties against the United States[cite: 16]. Everything else will fall into place after that[cite: 16]. The U.N. Declarations have no authority or power[cite: 16]. They merely express the intent[cite: 16]. It is the treaties that we are supposed to be enforcing as a Nation of people being oppressed by a foreign occupying power[cite: 16].
The Moorish Republic stands on international treaty law, self-determination, and indigenous nationhood[cite: 16].
