The World Tribunal on Iraq: Reflexions on War
An invaluable record of the crimes committed by the United States and its “Coalition of the Willing” partners in the invasion and occupation of Iraq. Iraqi witnesses and experts in international law, human rights, science, culture and history testified for three days before an international “Jury of Conscience” that included Arundhati Roy (India), Eve Ensler (U.S.), Chandra Muzaffar (Malaysia), Dumisa Nsebeza (South Africa), Francois Houtart (Belgium), and Taty Almeida (Argentina).

Meta-interviews, self-interviews, interviews with the medium, views.
