Abstract

This brief essay is intended to be read as a supplement to the article “Iraq and the Serious Consequences of Word Games: Language, Violence and Responsibility in the Security Council,” which was published in the German Law Journal on 1 November 2002. The date of publication was exactly one week before the Security Council voted on Resolution 1441, the text of which was still evolving during the last week of October 2002. What follows is a narrative that traces the trajectory of the Resolution's textual language from the provisions of a 21 October US-UK draft to the final form as of Security Council Resolution 1441, adopted on 8 November 2002.
