How America Gets Away with Murder: Illegal Wars, Collateral Damage and Crimes Against Humanity

"Exciting, original, and completely convincing . . . This book is essential reading for anybody who wants to understand how the law really works in international affairs, and it throws a great deal of light on those international affairs themselves." Edward S. Herman "This closely reasoned and carefully documented study is sad and grim, and necessary. Unless its lessons are heeded by citizens of the rich and powerful states, the fate of the world will be left to the whim of those with the guns and the faith to enforce their will." Noam Chomsky They call it "collateral damage," but legally and morally it is really mass murder. In Kosovo, America claimed its war was a "humanitarian intervention," in Afghanistan, "self-defense," and in Iraq, it claimed the authority of the Security Council of the United Nations. Yet each of these wars was illegal according to established rules of international law. According to these rules, illegal wars fall within the category of "supreme international crimes". So how come the war crimes tribunals never manage to turn their sights on America and always wind up putting America's enemies -- "the usual suspects" -- on trial? This new book by renowned scholar Michael Mandel offers a critical account of America's illegal wars and a war crimes system that has granted America's leaders an unjust and dangerous impunity, effectively encouraging their illegal wars and the war crimes that always flow from them.

The Jewish Hour tells the story of the author's quest to learn more about his late father's Yiddish radio show as described in the pages of a Toronto Yiddish newspaper, the Kanader Nayes (1936-1954). Many articles from the paper, translated into English for the first time, provide fresh and immediate accounts of a myriad of cultural events, political rallies and daily concerns within Toronto's Jewish community in the pivotal periods before, during and after the Second World War. The Jewish Hour introduces us to Max Mandel, Opatow-born star of the local Yiddish radio scene; Dorothy Dworkin, newspaper publisher, travel agent and co-founder of Mount Sinai Hospital; and a plethora of local performers, politicians, cantors and impresarios. Mandel's finely-researched tale also touches upon many renowned cultural and political visitors to Toronto including Molly Picon, Sholom Asch, Morris Schwartz, Emma Goldman, Chaim Weizmann and Golda Myerson (before she was Golda Meir). The Jewish Hour adds a significant new chapter to our knowledge of the history of Toronto's Jewish community. An appendix offers translated and transliterated lyrics of great Yiddish songs from the radio show and provides an internet link for free streaming and downloading.   Michael Mandel (1948-2013) was a law professor at Osgoode Hall Law School in Toronto for almost 40 years as well as an author, activist and singer. This book was a labour of love which he completed in the final weeks of his life.

In 1982 Canada put a Charter of Rights and Freedoms in its constitution and dramatically changed the nature of Canadian politics by giving the courts, and especially the Supreme Court, a general superintendence over all aspects of government and by making debates about the constitution a dominant theme of Canadian political life. In this thoroughly revised and updated edition of his original 1989 work, Michael Mandel, Professor at York University’s Osgoode Hall Law School, critically examines the history and philosophy of the phenomenon of “legal politics” and the way it has transformed the politics of language, crime, immigration, labour, business, race and gender. A case-by-case study of the important constitutional decisions of the eighties and nineties is joined by a detailed analysis of such major constitutional events as the Meech Lake Accord and the Charlottetown Accord and referendum.
