[casi] diplomacy and accountability










To a large extent, Blair and Bush are asking us to trust them.

People might be more willing to trust them if we had 2 things:

1)      diplomacy. Our Government should talk to the Iraqi government. Find out their
concerns. Report them to us

2)      accountability. The actions of our military (as directed by the politicians) must be
transparent after the event. eg what happened during the first Gulf War, Desert Fox, the
bombings in the so-called 'no fly zone' etc. Similarly for the actions of officials eg on the
661 Committee. We should not support military action by any country which does not
recognise the ICJ.
