David Lange Zitate

I had been brought up in the law and had this sort of instinct that international law operates and was there to protect principles and not to be the plaything of power and might - which I now know, of course, to be an absolute nonsense. International law should be spelled l-o-r-e.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Ich war im Gesetz erzogen worden und hatte so ein Instinkt, dass das Völkerrecht funktioniert und dazu da war, die Prinzipien zu schützen und nicht als Spielball von Macht und Macht zu gelten - was ich jetzt natürlich als absoluten Blödsinn weiß. Das Völkerrecht sollte als l-o-r-e buchstabiert werden.

Insofar as international law is observed, it provides us with stability and order and with a means of predicting the behavior of those with whom we have reciprocal legal obligations.

J. William Fulbright

In line with international law, only the U.N. Security Council could sanction the use of force against a sovereign state. Any other pretext or method which might be used to justify the use of force against an independent sovereign state are inadmissible and can only be interpreted as an aggression.

Some international law specialists compare the invasion of Iraq to the 'crimes against the peace' for which Nazi leaders were indicted at Nuremberg.
