I agree with many of the positive comments posted about Rebecca Gordon's important book, American Nuremberg. The author is right to call for a citizen's tribunal to investigate US war crimes. Perhaps I can hasten the process by pointing out several flaws in the author's book.
Gordon appears to have blinders on when it comes to Israel. She incorrectly states (p 7) that Israel signed the Nonproliferation Treaty (NPT). Israel did not. She mentions (p 74) that the US armed Iraq during the horrible Iraq-Iran war of the 1980s, but fails to mention that the US ALSO armed the other side, Iran. Indeed, it was Israel that handled the arms transfers (See Ari Ben-Menashe's book, Profits of War.) To her credit, Gordon mentions the neocons' Clean Break strategy (p 68) in the late 1990s that called for abandonment of the peace process with the Palestinians and a complete restructuring of the Mideast to favor Israel. Yet, she somehow is oblivious about the likely connection of such an evil strategy with 9/11. Was it mere coincidence, after 9/11, that seven nations were scheduled for regime change, as Gen. Wesley Clark pointed out in 2002?
The book's greatest weakness is Gordon's tacit acceptance of the official story about the 9/11 attacks. While I agree with her recommendations for accountability about US war crimes after 9/11, conspicuously absent is a call for a REAL investigation of 9/11 itself. In 2018, we know that plane impacts and building fires cannot explain the multiple total collapses of steel-framed towers in New York City on that fateful day. Everything points to the use of explosives, which means that 9/11 was a false flag operation. Let that horrifying thought sink in...
