Since the 5th Crusade in 1217 was never officially renounced by King Henry III, it is still perfectly legal for the English to invade Constantinople (now Istanbul) and make all the turks eat their camels. And there's NOTHING the UN can do about it.

How so? the HRA incorporated many of the provisions of the Convention, section 3 requires all legislation to be read and give effect to the convention, therefore the judiciary can reinterpret the statute to comply with it, thus being in a position to prevent the invasion.

But neither the the UN, EU or the HRA have scrutinsed this law yet. Its not been altered. Sure they could retrospectively close this loophole by introducing some legislation to prevent further camel consumption, but the FACT remains that, as it currently stands, you or I would be well within our legal rights to go to Istanbul and force someone to eat a camel.
