Former U.S. attorney general and longtime human rights lawyer Ramsey Clark died on April 10, 2021 at the age of 93. He served as attorney general from 1967 to 1969. After leaving office, Clark became a leading critic of U.S. foreign policy. âThe world is the most dangerous place itâs ever been because of what our country has done, and is doingâ he said.
I recorded him in San Francisco on October 12, 2002 - He said that when George Bush declared his war on terrorism he made the most lawless step in the history of the United States. Ramsey Clark warned of another war on Iraq - both for the poor and tortured people of that country and for us, for our own safety and for our souls. In spite of huge peace demonstrations across the world - war began on March 19, 2003.
â¨Few people knew Iraq as well as Ramsey Clark. While the bombs fell on Iraq in 1991 he traveled 2000 miles by car. He returned to Iraq every year to see the effect of the sanctions and weekly US/UK bombings. He visited hospitals and devastated neighborhoods.
