International Anti-Occupation Network
The Iraqi sectarian Government established under the US occupation is about to agree with the occupying power to transfer all Iraqi prisoners
of war (POW) and detainees held in the Baghdad International Airport prison
from US authority to its authority. This information was confirmed by the
American airport prison authority who informed
the defense lawyers of Iraqi POW that beginning with 31 March 2008 it will relinquish the responsibility of their safety during their visits to the prison. This means that the handover is imminent, and a new carnage place, similar to that when president Saddam Hussein and his comrades were handed over to the same sectarian Government and its Militias. ...

Three years ago today, on May 1, 2003, U.S. President George Bush made his famous landing on the aircraft carrier USS Lincoln in a secret flight and sent his congratulations to the sailors and pilots while standing under a banner that read: "Mission Accomplished." At that same time, when Secretary of State Donald Rumsfeld still believed he could "shock and awe" all of
Iraq into accepting these plans, the U.S. leaders might have believed they could set up a single weak and submissive Iraqi puppet government....

To conclude I would like to denounce the total lack of interest in human lives by the occupying forces and the Western mainstream press. There is obviously a lot of racism involved in the way this occupation is handled
by the MNF-I and covered by the media. Some of the academics assassinated were among the finest scientists not only in the Middle East, but worldwide.

They heard firsthand the plight of Iraqi academics and medical professionals who struggle to live amid constant threats, physical violence,
kidnappings and the operation of death squads....

The International Anti-Occupation Network
(IAON), along with the Palestinian, Arab and Spanish delegations, condemns and
rejects the interference of the Spanish Foreign Ministry and the Madrid Social Forum (FSM) and its cowardice in the face of attempts by Israel to impose Zionist forces on the civil society "Forum for a Just Peace in the Middle East". These forces cannot and do not subscribe to the Forum's Reference Document that affirms the inviolability of international law....
