International War Criminal is an EP by The Slackers first released in 2004. The five-song single, released by Thought Squad, continues the band's turn to more politically themed lyrics first heard on their 2003 release, Close My Eyes.
The EP features a full-band version of the song "International War Criminal" which first appeared on Vic Ruggiero's second solo album, Alive at the Ladybug House. A dub version of "Propaganda" also appears on The Slackers/Pulley Split and An Afternoon in Dub. All five songs also appear on Peculiar, although all except "Rider" are re-recorded.

Famous quotes containing the words war and/or criminal:
“No spoon has yet destroyed a mouth, but the knife of war cuts portions that are hard to swallow. Perhaps the big mouths of the privileged are able to cope with them, but they dull the teeth of the little people and ruin their stomachs.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
“If we are on the outside, we assume a conspiracy is the perfect working of a scheme. Silent nameless men with unadorned hearts. A conspiracy is everything that ordinary life is not. It’s the inside game, cold, sure, undistracted, forever closed off to us. We are the flawed ones, the innocents, trying to make some rough sense of the daily jostle. Conspirators have a logic and a daring beyond our reach. All conspiracies are the same taut story of men who find coherence in some criminal act.”
—Don Delillo (b. 1926)
