[abolition-caucus] INVOKE MONTREAL SABOTAGE CONVENTION!Importance: 
HighSensitivity: Private


The 1971 Montreal 
Sabotage Convention is directly on point here, and provides a comprehensive 
framework for dealing with the current 
dispute between the United States and Afghanistan over the tragic events of 11 
September 2001. Both States are contracting parties to the 
Montreal Sabotage Convention, together with 173 other States in the World 
. The United States 
is under an absolute obligation to 
resolve this dispute with Afghanistan in a peaceful manner as required by 
UN Charter Article 2(3) and Article 33 as well as 
by the Kellogg-Briand Pact of 1928, as 
well as in accordance with the requirements of the  Montreal 
Sabotage Convention-- all of which  
treaties bind most of the States of the World. In addition,  
the United States should offer to submit this entire dispute to the 
International Court of Justice in The Hague (the so-called World Court)  on the basis of the Montreal Sabotage 
Convention, and should ask the 
Government of Afghanistan to withdraw its Reservation to World Court jurisdiction as permitted by  article 14(3) of the Montreal Sabotage Convention. Furthermore, all other contracting parties must invoke the Montreal 
Sabotage Convention against both the United States and Afghanistan in order to 
produce a peaceful resolution of this 
dispute.
