The dogged and heroic Iraqi resistance has for a long time been treated unfairly and often directly ignorant in the western anti-war media, strangely enough.  The last couple of years there has been an alarming silence.  It was therefore with a certain feeling of relief that I read Nicolas J.S. Davies “The Victory of Popular Resistance in Occupied Iraq” published 21 Oct 2011 http://warisacrime.org/content/victory-popular-resistance-occupied-iraq ¹.  The word “victory” in the headline was startling. …   [...mer...]

The politics of genocide against the Palestinians have actually been facilitated by the UN suggestion for partition in 1947 and the Oslo Agreement in 1993 that launched the idea of a two-state solution. …   [...mer...]

Bissmillah Al Rahman Al Raheem.

On the 19^th March 2003, the United States Administration with President George W. Bush at its head, began its illegitimate war on Iraq, without any United Nations authorization, thus violating international law and all known rules for war mentioned and dealt with in The Treaty of The Hague.

Third:  Ability.

The third condition only was available to the Americans, i.e. “Ability”, so they went to war alone and without the will of the international community. …   [...mer...]
