Can a state stop and search vessels suspected of carrying weapons of mass destruction in international waters ? The Proliferation Security Initiative, a US - led coalition, aims to contain the spread of weapons of mass destruction through a variety of measures based on uncontroversial heads of state jurisdiction. But when might high seas interdictions be lawful, if suspect vessels do not pass through territory within the Proliferation Security Initiative’s reach ? Ordinarily, merchant vessels in international waters can only be stopped and searched without flag state consent in very limited circumstances. This article, however, argues that insofar as the ‘War on Terror’ is a conflict with ascertained non - state actors, the law of belligerent contraband could allow high seas interdiction of weapons shipments bound for organisations such as al - Qa’eda.
