We don't need to be under the banner of the UN to help "crimes against humanity".

We do, however, benefit from joining said organization. Even if we don't recieve protection, we create a vast network of allies dedicated to the same cause. Even if we're the "main" force of the UN, if we find something to be a human rights violation we can call on other nations for support. Joining this court subjects us to much easier terms during war because we go into battles with more foreign support, money, supplies, etcetera. Should we stand against human rights violations, we get a discount and benefits when actually fighting.

Support with what? Even when we were going into Iraq, the UN did nothing. The reasoning at the time was because of allegations of WMDs, but that also doesn't change the fact that Saddam was guilty of many crimes against humanity. Where was UN support there? The UN itself didn't want part in it, and primarily due to anti-Americanism. We don't need to be under the umbrella of the UN to have allies help us in a war, like what Great Britain and many other countries showed us. You act as if the UN has exclusive rights to being the only people to stand against "crimes against humanity". The US can still stand against that, and not submit its sovereignty.
