"...all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the Supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby..." (U.S. Constitution, Article VI).
Was the treaty actually ratified? There are an awful lot of treaties out there that we are 'signatories' to that haven't been through the ratification process.
