Description
1946 TOKYO TRIAL
Theoretical War Crimes Tribunal and the Breakdown of International Law
Gaius and Germanicus: From Londinium in 92 AD, the hosts discuss a hypothetical tribunal prosecuting American leadership for launching an unprovoked, illegal attack on Iran in 2026. Inspired by radio reports of the 1945 Nurembergtrials, Gaius questions whether Eurasian nations could try Western leaders in absentia. Germanicus adds that by conducting aggressive wars, the United States has shattered the Westphalian legal order it once claimed to defend. Consequently, Eurasian powers and BRICS could formalize alternative international structures that permanently isolate and sanction both the US and Israel. (3)
