A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Despite public outcry at home and international opposition abroad, the Bush Administration deployed troops and invested millions in preparation for a massive military assault on Iraq. In this Open Media Series special edition, three legal scholars from the Center for Constitutional Rights argue persuasively that the looming war against Iraq is both unnecessary for national security, and illegal.
Against War with Iraq describes the high cost of the US war in Iraq in terms of human life, as well as the economic and political havoc it will trigger. A timely and much needed anti-war primer, Against War with Iraq contains the core facts and analysis needed to understand the issues and become an effective advocate against hawkish U.S. foreign policy.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

In this special edition pamphlet three legal scholars from the Center for Constitutional Rights persuasively argue that the looming war against Iraq is both illegal and unnecessary for U.S. national security. The Bush administration's justifications for war are exposed as pretexts and it is argued that such a war with Iraq is liable to increase rather than decrease the terrorist threat. Furthermore, with the clear economic motivation of oil, Bush is shown to be a potential war criminal by United Nations standards. Includes information on how to protest effectively.
