#1 Wrong. "proportional" is wrong. Even a multiple of proportional is wrong. That just means keeping on keeping on.
The answer is...you mess with Americans, we kill you, we break your stuff, there's nothing left.
In the long run, lives are saved and who cares what the ICC thinks, anyway.

#5 I'm sure this is just a coincidence, but that other dude Skidmark mentioned a while back (Gilligan... Gallagher... the guy with the giant mallet and the watermelons and whatnot) might be another useful reference.
