The Wire Series 1
Hardly. For a start, he's no longer the federal government. More importantly, there's loads of previous occasions when the federal govenrment has gone up against international law. To take just one example, the ICJ ruling on the US mining of Nicaragua's harbours and other crimes. Of course, Reagan just unilaterally decided that the ICJ didn't have jurisdiction over its actions in Central America, despite the US having ratified the treaty.
Obviously there have also been plenty of WTO and NAFTA disputes as well.
The top DA in the USA is the Attorney General (of which Alberto Gonzales recently got indicted by Baltazar Garzon, in which case it will be the first time the US Federal Government will go up against International law.)
