Countries’ top legal minds are declaring the US-Israel attack on Iran to be illegal, as China did. But Israel-friendly western politicians including Starmer, von der Leyen, Albanese, and others are desperately blocking their ears as they try to justify actual war crimes. Here's what the specialists say: . 1. The European Journal of International Law was yesterday very clear that “this use of force by the US and Israel is manifestly illegal. It is as plain a violation of the prohibition on the use of force in Article 2(4) of the UN Charter as one could possibly have.” . 2. Other top European bodies agreed. “Trump’s strikes on Iran are an illegal war of choice—and Europeans should say so,” said a report published by the European Council of Foreign Relations. It said leaders must “communicate clearly that this is a war of choice by America, in contravention of the same UN charter the Europeans have themselves invoked to condemn Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine and insist on Greenland’s sovereignty.” . 3. Arguably even more telling was a statement from the former legal chief at U.S. Central Command, literally the people who are carrying out the bombings on Iran: "Not only does this violate international law in numerous respects, it clearly violates the U.S. Constitution and the War Powers Resolution," said retired Air Force Lt. Col. Rachel Van Landingham. Her entire career has been about establishing the difference between legal and illegal attacks by U.S. Centcom, the people doing the attacking. . 4. “Trump and Netanyahu’s attack on Iran is an illegal act of aggression” was the title of an essay by Kenneth Roth in the UK Guardian today: “Their actions are no different from Putin’s invasion of Ukraine…” This is interesting as Roth is best known as the former head of Human Rights Watch, a US foreign policy tool thinly disguised as an NGO (evidence for that is in a separate report). . 5. The same argument, with arguably even more fire, is erupting in the UK. Unpopular Prime Minister Keir Starmer, known for his pro-Trump and pro-Israel positions, is being taken to task by people speaking for the British people, who tend to be anti-war and are generally not fans of Trump. Jeremy Corbyn, elder statesman of the UK left, described the US-Israel attack as “illegal, unprovoked and unjustifiable”. “Peace and diplomacy was possible,” he added. “Instead, Israel and the United States chose war. This is the behaviour of rogue states — and they have jeopardised the safety of humankind around the world with this catastrophic act of aggression.” . 6. Even people on Starmer’s own team were clear. Labour MP Emily Thornberry, chairperson of the Commons Foreign Affairs Committee, told the Press Association: “There is no legal basis for this attack.” Israel loyalist Starmer pointedly chose not to repeat this point. . 7. Patrick Harvie, Scottish parliamentarian, said: “It is part of a pattern of reckless and destructive behaviour from a White House that has shown total contempt for human rights, international law and negotiations… From arming Israel's genocide against Palestinians to his illegal and immoral coup in Venezuela and his threats against Europe, Trump has acted like a gangster on the world stage.” . 8. Australian leader Anthony Albanese, a strong backer of the Israeli government, is also in trouble. Legal experts in Australia have been pointing out the illegality of the attacks on Iran since last year. “Why the US strikes on Iran are illegal and can set a troubling precedent,” was the title of a report by Professor Donald Rothwell of the ANU College of Law, after earlier attacks on Iran. Many Australians are anti-war, but prominent politicians and the media are pushing a strongly pro-war line. . 9. “Israel said the strikes were “preventive”, meaning they were to prevent Iran from developing a capacity to be a threat. But preventive war has no legal basis under international law,” said a statement from two political specialists at the University of the Sunshine Coast, Shannon Brincat and Juan Zahir Naranjo Caceres. Marko Milanovic, editor of the European Journal of International Law (mentioned above), made the same point. “Even if the broadest possible understanding of anticipatory self-defence was taken as correct, Israel’s use of force against Iran would be illegal,” he said. . 10. The point is echoed by multiple experts. “The possibility of acting in self-defence in view of an attack that might be coming is illegal in international law and we’re all very, very clear about that,” said Maria Gavouneli, a professor of international law at Athens University, in an interview with Al-Jazeera. . 11. Even in the US, lawmakers on both sides have criticized the attack on Iran as being against the law. Senator Ed Markey called the actions “illegal and unconstitutional”. . 12. Former US Deputy National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes declared the attack to be an illegal war, 'A war that has no domestic or international legal basis. A war that Americans do not support. A war in response to no imminent threat. A pointless war,' he wrote on X yesterday. . CONCLUSION: Immediately after the US-Israel attack began, China’s foreign ministry said it was “a grave violation of Iran's sovereignty and security”. Legal experts across the western nations agree. There is no doubt that the US-Israel attacks on Iran are illegal, as numerous voices from around the world are saying. Equally, there is also no doubt that the pro-Israel western elite, who dominate politics and the media, will try to cover up this fact: Trump, von der Leyen, Starmer, Merz, and others. Trouble is brewing in the west, as people realize just how controlled their rulers are.
