LAW FIELD NOTE GHOUTA TO BHOPAL PART I: CALL IT LIKE IT IS A group of human rights defenders who were well informed about the alleged chemical weapons attacks on the suburbs of Ghouta, Syria, on August 21, 2013, were asked to watch video clips of the aftermath of the chemical weapons attack and compare those clips to the aftermath of an industrial disaster that occurred on December 3, 1984, in Bhopal, India, when a cloud of toxic gas escaped from Union Carbide’s pesticide plant, killing thousands. The viewers were, for the most part, unfamiliar with the incident in India prior to watching the video.
