Riassunto

This book provides an in-depth examination of the 2011 US allegation of Iran's plot to assassinate the ambassador of Saudi Arabia in Washington. Written by a renowned political scientist, it questions the truthfulness of US allegation and the related criminal complaint, by drawing on US laws as well as insights from the discipline of critical legal studies. This book is bound to shock the readers by providing a new case study of how the US "war on terror" has gone astray by manufacturing fake threats, as part and parcel of a designed Iran phobia. Essential reading for readers of US foreign policy under the Obama administration.Table of Content:Introduction: Iran Phobia in ContextFull Throttle: US Alleges A Terror PlotLegal Deconstruction: Fake US Complaint 1- Methodology of Legal Deconstruction 2.
