Former Dutch Prime Minister Says U.S. Is Rogue State
Former Prime Minister Dries van Agt said (in tv-news Nova - video only in Dutch) that the Dutch government should bring back its troops from Iraq as soon as possible, not because of the danger but because they are participating without any UN mandate in an illegal occupation.
He also said that the US and Israel 'repeatedly and seriously' breach international law and calls the US a rogue state. He said Bush's support for Israel is 'irresponsible and unjust'.
Soon the Dutch government and parliament will have to decide whether the troops will remain in Iraq or not.
