The use of force against terrorism and international law
Article Abstract:
The United States' actions in the wake of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks have been largely without authorization of the United Nations Security Council. The U.S. should seek such authorization for future actions and involve the Security Council directly in planning a war on terrorism. That is the best way to preserve world order and to ensure that the terrorists' goals are not accomplished.
