Self-defense in Islamic and international law: Assessing Al-Qaeda and the invasion of Iraq

Shah, Niaz A.

Abstract

© Niaz A. Shah, 2008. All rights reserved. The book argues that the concept of self-defense in Islamic and International law is compatible. Al-Qaeda's declaration of Jihad does not meet the Islamic legal test. Similarly, the invasion of Iraq does meet the international legal test.
