In it's
annual report,
Amnesty International has said that
the "war on terror" has made the world a more dangerous place by
creating divisions which make conflict more likely and "by
curtailing human rights,
undermining the rule of international law +
shielding governments from scrutiny".
Iraq had also diverted attention from problems in areas like
Cote d'Ivoire, Columbia, Burundi, Chechnya + Nepal... whilst "Governments have spent billions to strengthen national security and the 'war on terror' for millions of people, the
real sources of insecurity are
corruption, repression, discrimination, extreme poverty + preventable diseases."
