That's because of international laws of war,When the Barbary Pirates captured US seamen, no new law was needed by Jefferson or Madison.
It wasn't a violation of US code.

Yup, we could do nothing to stop Jim Jones, because it was their right to drink the kool-aid.But it is each person's right to determine their own future, and again, the butterfly effect could be for the better.
That's where you're wrong. Without a law against terrorism, Osama BinLaden wouldn't have committed a crime.

9-11 was suicide. And you would remove any law against that. Along with laws against drugs. Which would mean everybody from Noreiga to BinLaden would never face punishment.Conspiracy to commit murder is not a crime?
There has never been any problem charging people outside the US.
We even illegally arrest Noreiga over drugs that should not even be illegal.
We're talking 1800, at that time US code didn't make it illegal until 1948Sure it was.
US code makes it illegal to murder or impress US citizens.
Doesn't matter where.
US code is based on the inherent rights of individuals, so has nothing to do with locations.
If suicide isn't illegal, coercion to commit suicide isn't a crime.There was evidence of coercion, force, etc.

Actually the Taliban said they needed to see proof of BinLadens guilt before turning him over to a neutral third country. No such proof was ever offered or given.But Osama bin Laden was guilty of conspiracy to commit murder.
Nothing hard to prosecute about that.
In fact, the Taliban offered to turn him over to any Islamic court in the world, so the invasions were not at all necessary or legal.

Taliban maintains refusal to turn over bin Laden
www.chicagotribune.com
Zaeef reiterated the Taliban insistence that it would not turn over bin Laden without receiving evidence of his participation in the Sept. 11 attacks on America, and he called again for talks with the United States, which President Bush already has rejected.
Khan said the United States did not offer clear-cut evidence of bin Laden's involvement
"We have yet to receive any detailed evidence about the persons responsible for the horrendous act of terrorism, or other links with bin Laden or al-Qaida," he said, while also repeating Pakistan's call on Afghanistan to hand over bin Laden.
States had laws against murder, but not the newly formed federal government. They didn't make it a federal crime until 1948, so any acts by the Barbary pirates would have to be handled as an act of war, not as a crime for which they could be imprisoned or executed.I think you are confused as to what is legal or not.
Legality is not based on legislation.
The killing, kidnapping, or in any way harming anyone was always illegal.
There was no need for specific code in 1948, although not a bad idea.
Yea yea, cool story bro.
Comeback when you've actually got facts to back it up. Because without that you are just another wingnut running your mouth.
Your unbiased sources?The fact that an amateur artist, Hunter Biden, is selling his art to undisclosed buyers for a fortune is a creative way for Joe Biden to peddle his influence for cash. Everybody with a brain knows this but of course nothing will happen except that those who purchase Hunters “art” will get favors.
All news is propaganda today. You pick your favorite propaganda and I get to pick mine. There are few if any unbiased sources.
If the investigations that occur are whitewashes and most corruption is never investigated to begin with I will never have any facts to back my opinion up. You may feel you are on the winning side today but corruption can destroy nations from within. Take the Roman Empire as an example.
Corruption in the Heart of Rome Essay on Roman Empire, rome
Rome was the perfect setting to start an empire. Three seas to the West, South, and East as well as the Alps mountain range to the North guarding Rome. Rome was the ideal homeland for a small empire to expand to great lengths. Natural resources and trade routes also helped Romes economy expand...benjaminbarber.org
Slowly, the Roman way of life was suffocated till there was no sign of the once powerful Republic. And in the year 476 the Roman empire fell (Haywood 162). Corruption in all angles of Roman government were present. Instead of working together to continue preserving their civilization they took their power for granted. The feelings of greed and power overcame the Republics leaders and led them astray from responsibilities. The government could have led their people to more prosper times, but instead they followed their own ambitions. Roman civilization did not die a natural death. It was murdered (Kagan 91).
The fact that an amateur artist, Hunter Biden, is selling his art to undisclosed buyers for a fortune is a creative way for Joe Biden to peddle his influence for cash. Everybody with a brain knows this but of course nothing will happen except that those who purchase Hunters “art” will get favors.
Now you of course will claim that Hunter Biden is a modern day Picasso and therefore his painting are worth every penny. Here’s an example of his talent:
