“Rules Based Order”?

The simplest definition of “Rules Based Order (RBO)” is that all the nations of the world must obey the United States (US). This, of course, is the opposite of international law that says that all nations must respect the sovereignty of all other nations.
When nations disobey the US, they are punished with economic sanctions and military interventions. Are you aware that the US is responsible for 81% of all military conflicts around the world after World War II?
The US alleges that she must have that “RBO” to defend democracy around the world. But if the Cubans want Fidel Castro as their president, what does US “democracy” have to do with trying to assassinate him? What does US “democracy” have to do with maintaining a blockade against Cuba for over 60 years in violation to international law?
The “RBO” is to govern the US for her oligarchs. That is how 8 of the 10 richest men in the world are US citizens, while 38 million US citizens live in poverty! Where is democracy for the 99% of US citizens?
The US invented the “RBO” in order to try to justify her behavior that violates international law. If the International Criminal Court (ICC) were a serious institution, it would have already prosecuted many US criminals. Julian Assange has given the ICC enough evidence to have done so, but the ICC prefers to be another US puppet, like the United Nations.
The US, knowing that she will lose militarily in Ukraine, has gotten the ICC to issue a warrant for the arrest of President Putin. That “Hail Mary” shows the US’ desperation! The US knows that her only hope would be that someone assassinates Putin. The Russians will see that as another attack against them by the West, and the war would only intensify.
The world considers the US as the biggest threat to peace. Today, the US is proving that to be so, by trying to get the world into a nuclear war with the Russian Federation. Therefore, the US and her “RBO” would be responsible for the very possible annihilation of humanity!
What does “Rules based Order” have to do with democracy?
