In connection with a law suit it brought in a German court against senior American officials, the Center for Constitutional Rights, New York, obtained an opinion from Scott Horton, Chairman of the Committee on International Law of the Association of the Bar of the City of New York. The opinion essentially deals with whether such a case could be brought or not in an American court today. Mr. Horton's report runs to 11 pages with very wide margins and frequently skipped lines. I personally am of the opinion that every thoughtful citizen of this world ought to read it. It may be found at:
