To the Editor:
As fellow members of the United Nations, the U.S. and Syria have foresworn military raids on each other's territory and citizens. The U.S. has now violated that treaty obligation. That is sufficient cause for the U.S. to be expelled from the United Nations, and--since our constitution defines our treaty obligations as the "supreme law in the land--constitutes an impeachable high crime. For too long this administration has asserted that the U.S. has special license to act outside of the law. The American people have signalled a desire for change. This would be a good time to start.
