An insider's account of the US 'war on terror' with Mark Fallon

In this seminar, national security expert Mark Fallon discusses his new book, Unjustifiable Means, as well as his experience serving the US intelligence community, where he held positions including NCIS Deputy Assistant Director for Counterterrorism and Senior Executive within the Department of Homeland Security. The book reveals a dark side to the United States government, which set domestic laws and international covenants aside to become a nation that tortured. It also exposes those responsible for using torture under the guise of national security, as well as those who risked it all to oppose the programme.

The seminar is chaired by Federica D'Alessandra, the Executive Director of the Oxford Insitute for Ethics, Law and Armed Conflict’s International Peace and Security Programme.
