すみちゃんとたこさんの小泉首相の戦争責任につて、国際法上での問題に関する論争の続きになるかと思われますが、だいぶ時間がたってしまったので、新しいスレッドで以下の記事をご紹介します。この記事の最後のところで、スペインの法務大臣は、最高裁へのこの提訴を「政府は国際法にのっとて参戦したのだから、法的根拠なし」と返答しているが国家指導者の個人としての戦争犯罪責任を徹底追及し糾弾していくことは今後ますます重要になると思います。米国も日本もハーグの国際刑事裁判所のローマ条約に批准していませんが、国内法および国際法レベルで首相による国際法違反の戦争への支持協力の違法性を法的に明らかにしていく必要があるのではないのでしょうか。スペインにはスペインの国内法の問題があるでしょうが、どなたか、起訴状(スペイン語でも結構)の詳しい内容をご存知の方があれば、ご教示ください。参考にしたいのです。
Lawsuit filed against Aznar for backing war
A group of lawyers, judges and anti-war activists, filed a lawsuit against Spanish Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar on Wednesday, charging that his support for the US-led war on Iraq is illegal.
The groups accuse Aznar of breaking Spanish law by involving the country in a military conflict without authorisation from both houses of parliament and the King.
The lawsuit has been filed in Spain’s Supreme Court by the Free Association of Lawyers, Judges for Democracy and other anti-war groups.
It is the latest motion in a series of attempts to attack Aznar’s staunch support for US-led military action.
European parliament member Jose Maria Mendiluce filed similar charges against Aznar late last month, and the Spanish Parliament rejected two opposition motions condemning the war on Tuesday.
An official from Aznar's ruling Popular Party (PP) also expressed resentment on Wednesday.
Jose Miguel Bravo de Laguna, head of the regional parliament for Spain's Canary Islands charged that the US-led war was unjustified, morally indefensible, and had dealt a blow to European unity and to the United Nations.
Justice Minister Jose Maria Michavila dismissed the lawsuits as "unfounded", insisting that the government had acted in
keeping with international law.
