Military in action completely ILLEGAL Lawyers say. Any country doing a military action without authorisation to be sued and excluded
hyhi
authorisation by a vote at the Un . 1441 is NOT providing authority to carry
war.
Therefore, this is the confirmation hat all military preparation is already
illegal, and that future any action without UN authorisation is an ofense to
international law, and make its author a ROGUE STATE to be stopped and
fought as such.
For the USA this is to be added to internal illegality: no declaration of
war through congress; President of the USA no really elected by the people.
For UK, Commons and the public opinion can sue for anticonstitutional acts.
international organisations and courts will sue on this.

No case for military action, lawyers tell Blair

The Guardian
President George Bush last night indicated that war was very close in an
address to the American people on prime time television. In response to
questions after a brief address he said that "we are days away from
resolving this issue at the security council".
On the eve of the UN inspector Hans Blix's weapons report to the UN, Mr Bush
said that Mr Blix had only one question to answer: "Has the Iraqi regime
fully and unconditionally disarmed as required by resolution 1441 or has it
not?"
In what appeared to be a prelude to a declaration of war, he sombrely warned
journalists in Iraq to leave. "We will give people a chance to leave," he
said, in response to a question about US inspectors and journalists.
His speech came after Tony Blair last night faced fresh pressure to abandon
the threat of war against Iraq when 16 eminent academic lawyers warned him
that the White House doctrine of "pre-emptive self-defence" has no
justification under international law.
In a letter sent to Downing Street and published in today's Guardian, the
leading lawyers declare that the UN security council's existing resolutions
on Iraq - including 1441, passed unanimously in November to enforce
disarmament on Saddam Hussein - fail to provide authority for war. Nor were
there currently any grounds for passing a new resolution to give the
"clearly expressed assent" to a war that Mr Blair still seeks.
The signatories - specialists who include James Crawford, Whewell Professor
of International Law at Cambridge, and Vaughan Lowe, Chichele Professor at
Oxford - also take a sideswipe at the prime minister for saying that he and
George Bush would ignore an "unreasonable veto" in the security council.
Mr Bush's news conference was only the eighth such for mal address he has
given since taking office. He was said to have had a question and answer
session with staff in advance of the address to prepare himself.
The fact that he chose to speak at prime time was an indication of the
significance attached to his appearance. It was only his second ever prime
time address. The address was also aimed at the 250,000 US troops in the
Gulf.
While White House officials briefed beforehand that the president planned no
declaration of war, it was flagged as a way of preparing the American public
for an imminent war.
Mr Bush said his first duty was to protect the American people and he
believed that they were under threat as long as Saddam Hussein had not been
disarmed. "Since I believe the threat is real and since my job is to protect
the America people. That is precisely what we will do."
The president claimed that Iraq was engaged in a "wilful charade". He added:
"If the Iraqi regime was disarming, we would know it." He claimed that the
Iraqi leader was hiding weapons. "Inspection teams do not need more time or
more personnel _ token gestures are not acceptable."
He went on: "The risk of doing nothing, the risk that somehow inaction will
some how make the world a safer place is something I am not willing to do."
He also referred to the capture of al-Qaida leader Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.
"Thanks to the hard work of American and Pakistani officials, we captured
the master mind of the September 11 attacks on our nation: Khalid Sheikh
Mohammed _ we believe his capture will further disrupt the terror network."
The speech was also seen to be addressed at the international community in a
bid to persuade waverers amongst the countries in the Security Council.
Intense diplomatic efforts have been made in the last few days to persuade
those who think the UN inspectors should have more time that a deadline
should be set.
Mr Blair, when cross-examined by young European voters in an MTV TV debate
yesterday, suggested he was prepared to ignore multiple vetoes. "If there
was a veto applied by one of the countries with a veto, or by countries that
I thought were applying the veto unreasonably, in those circumstances we
would (go ahead)," he said
The lawyers, noting that Britain itself has exercised the veto 32 times
since the UN was founded in 1945, say "the prime minister's assertion that
in certain circumstances a veto becomes 'unreasonable' and may be
disregarded has no basis in international law.
Not content with telling Mr Blair that a second resolution is legally
necessary as well as politically vital if No 10 is to stem growing dissent
among Labour and Liberal Democrat MPs, the lawyers, mostly British-based but
of many nationalities, add a further sting.
The letter's signatories include six leading lawyers from Oxford, three from
Cambridge and three from the London School of Economics. Also among them are
Professor Phillipe Sands, a member of Cherie Blair QC's Matrix chambers, and
Professor Pierre-Marie Dupuy of the Sorbonne.
