 Invasion of Iraq: Human Rights Watch says Iraq war was not humanitarian

New Global Survey Analyzes War and Human Rights

:: No humanitarian case for Iraq war, says rights group By Kim Sengupta (The Independent; London, Jan. 27 2004).
The United States and Britain had no justification for invading Iraq either on the grounds of alleged threats from illicit weapons and terrorism, or as a humanitarian mission, an international civil rights group said yesterday.  “Humanitarianism, even understood broadly as a concern for the welfare of people, was at best a subsidiary motive for the invasion of Iraq.”  

:: Iraq war was not humanitarian, says HRW report (The Daily Times; Pakistan, Jan. 27 2004).
“The Bush administration cannot justify the war in Iraq as a humanitarian intervention, and neither can (British Prime Minister) Tony Blair,” said the group’s Executive Director Kenneth Roth.

 Blair/Uzbekistan: moral case for war – but backs a dictator who boils prisoners to death
  Posted by Siriel Admin 2003 Oct 28 - 2:04pm 

Tony Blair’s New Friend
He made the moral case for war – but backs a dictator who boils prisoners to death

By George Monbiot, published in the Guardian 28th Oct. 2003.

The British and US governments gave three reasons for going to war with Iraq. The first was to extend the war on terrorism. The second was to destroy its weapons of mass destruction before they could be deployed. The third was to remove a brutal regime, which had tortured and murdered its people.

 Quelle paix au Proche Orient ?

Il y a 2 ans, jour pour jour, éclatait la deuxième Intifada dans les territoires occupés. Quel bilan pouvons-nous faire de ce soulèvement populaire ? A quoi ressemble la vie des palestiniens, aujourd’hui ? Est-il encore réaliste de parler de paix dans cette région du monde ? Même si cet article n’a pas la prétention de répondre en totalité à ces questions qui font quotidiennement les manchettes des journaux à travers le monde, nous tenterons d’exposer un point de vue pacifique, résolument opposé aux massacres et solidaire des revendications légitimes du peuple palestinien.

Idee ou reflexion lumineuse - Bright idea or reflection It Seems to Me by Howard Zinn

Human beings do not naturally support violence and terror. They do so only when they believe their lives or country are at stake. These were not at stake in the Iraq War. Bush lied to the American people about Saddam and his weapons. And when people learn the truth —as happened in the course of the Vietnam War— they will turn against the government. We who are for peace have the support of the rest of the world. The United States cannot indefinitely ignore the ten million people who protested around the world on February 15. The power of government —whatever weapons it possesses, whatever money it has at its disposal— is fragile. When it loses its legitimacy in the eyes of its people, its days are numbered.

We need to engage in whatever nonviolent actions appeal to us. There is no act too small, no act too bold. (...)

 Experts believed no Iraqi WMDs in 2001: analysts
  Posted by Siriel Admin 2003 Jul 18 - 2:02pm 

Comment (En): I would like to take advantage of this quality article to reaffirm that people who knew the Iraqi reality also know Iraq was not a military threat and that President George W. Bush lied to his own people, to the peoples of the world and to the United Nations.

Commentaire (Fr): Je profite de cet article de qualité pour réaffirmer que les gens qui connaissaient bien la réalité irakienne savaient que l’Irak n’était pas une menace militaire et que le Président George W. Bush a menti à son propre peuple, aux peuples du monde entier et aux Nations unies.

Idee ou reflexion lumineuse - Bright idea or reflection by Arundhati Roy

Presented in New York City at The Riverside Church, May 13, 2003
A conference hosted by the Center for Economic and Social Rights

A strong and truthful speech about the fact that we are facing an empire that cares little about truth. It contains quality information that US news most probably did not tell us.

Excerpt :
I don t care what the facts are. What a perfect maxim for the New American Empire. Perhaps a slight variation on the theme would be more apposite: The facts can be whatever we want them to be.
