(回答先: 過去に大量虐殺を起こしたからと言っても、サダム排除の今回のイラク戦争は「人道的な介在」とは認められない。【Human Rights Watch】 投稿者 Sちゃん 日時 2004 年 1 月 27 日 05:13:15)
サダム排除は、戦争の理由にはならない。
ブッシュおよびブレアは、人命を救う為の努力として、今回の戦争を正当化しようとしてはならない。
人道的な介在としてイラクの戦争を正当化することは出来ない。
集団虐殺だけが、人道主義の目的のために軍事力を使用することを許す動機付けになるかもしれない。
だが2003年3月の時点でサダムはそのような殺戮は行っておらず、上記のような理由で
今回の戦争を正当化することは認められない。
…と大量破壊兵器が出てこなかった時の為の予想される「言い訳」を封じている。

Ousting Saddam 'no cause for war'
The reasons for the war are still being questioned
A leading human rights group has said the US and UK are wrong to use the toppling of a brutal regime in Baghdad to justify going to war against Iraq.
The group, Human Rights Watch asked why George Bush and Tony Blair did not try remove Saddam Hussein much earlier.
Its report comes as the former US chief weapons inspector questioned the CIA's assessment of the threat from Iraq.
Tony Blair is also under pressure, awaiting the findings of an inquiry into the death of a UK weapons expert.
Mr Blair and Mr Bush have come under increasing pressure from critics of the war over their failure to produce convincing evidence that Saddam Hussein possessed banned weapons of mass destruction.
In its annual World Report, the New York-based Human Rights Watch also said:
・Human rights are deteriorating in Afghanistan due to a reliance by US-led forces on warlords to defeat Taleban and al-Qaeda fighters
・The Bush administration uses threats to national security to justify putting executive action in the United States above the law
・Russian authorities justify the war in Chechnya as their contribution to the war on terror, while European and other governments ignore appalling human rights abuses there
・There was a "moment of hope" in Africa with African leaders trying to stop regional wars and the associated abuses, through bodies like the African Union
Flawed justification
Human Rights Watch said Mr Bush and Mr Blair should not try to justify the war retrospectively as an effort to save human life.
The Bush administration cannot justify the war in Iraq as a humanitarian intervention, and neither can Tony Blair
Human Rights Watch
"Only mass slaughter might permit the deliberate taking of life in using military force for humanitarian purposes," it said.
"Brutal as Saddam Hussein's reign had been, the scope of the Iraq Government's killing in March 2003, was not of the exceptional and dire magnitude that would justify humanitarian intervention.
"The Bush administration cannot justify the war in Iraq as a humanitarian intervention, and neither can Tony Blair."
In a US radio interview on Monday, the former chief US weapons inspector David Kay cast further doubt on the existence in Iraq of banned weapons of mass destruction.
Mr Kay said he thought the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) owed Mr Bush an explanation for warnings about the threat Iraq posed.
The issue is also stalking Mr Blair, whose political future depends on the findings of a report to be released on Wednesday which will examine claims he exaggerated the threat from Iraq.
