Finally! Here's the US Security Council letter justifying its war against Iran: As exptected, a mixture of an absurdly broad conceptualization of the right to self-defence and humanitarian intervention.

The United States has acted now to address the continuing threat posed by the Iranian regime, because peaceful measures have once again been attempted and exhausted. In the wake of the crippling United States strikes in June 2025, our President engaged in yet another intense effort to secure a diplomatic resolution that would bring peace, prosperity and security for all States in the region, prevent the regime’s development of ballistic missile capabilities directly threatening United States Armed Forces in the region, protect Iran’s citizens and eliminate the threat from the regime’s nuclear program. Unfortunately, the regime refused to negotiate in good faith. The United States reserves the right in accordance with Article 51 and customary international law to further act in our own self-defense and in the collective self-defense of our allies and partners, as may become necessary. I ask that you circulate the text of the present letter as a document of the Security Council. (Signed) Michael G. Waltz

Aus aktuellem Anlass: Wer das Völkerrecht bricht, oder Rechtsbruch duldet, gefährdet nicht nur die Ukraine, sondern letztlich die Demokratie im eigenen Land. Rechtlosigkeit und Gewalt im Außenverhältnis schlagen auf das Innenverhältnis durch. taz.de/Voelkerrecht...

Völkerrecht und Demokratie: Gefährliche Gretchenfrage

Wer die Demokratie schützen will, muss das Völkerrecht wahren. Dieser Grundgedanke wird hierzulande nicht konsequent genug verfolgt.

Defense Minister Pistorius warned in the Bundestag that any forced Ukrainian capitulation would only strengthen Putin and encourage other autocrats. He outlined three core principles for peace: no unilateral territorial concessions, a strong Ukrainian military backed by real security guarantees.
