Question 2:
Libya recently announced that it is claiming a 200-mile zone off its coast as its territorial waters
(and airspace). To stake its claim, Libya placed armed warships across the 200 mile line and
warned the world that this line constitutes a “line of death― to anyone who might cross it.
Customary International Law establishes that States may only claim 12 miles off their coast as
territorial waters. Immediately, the Security Council adopts a resolution condemning Libya’s
actions as “violating international law and constituting a threat to the peace.― The
Resolution, however, stated nothing about using force against Libya. The United States, pursuant
to Congressional authorization, sends armed warships and three fighter jets to patrol the 200 mile
zone. The U.S. warships and Fighter Jets never came closer than 30 miles to the Libyan coast.
After a Libyan ship fired at one of the fighter jets, the U.S. warships and fighter jets returned fire,
destroying two Libyan ships. Did the U.S.’s actions violate the U.N. Charter? Even if the
U.S. did not violate the Charter, should the United States care whether its actions violated the
U.N. Charter? (At least 300 words).
