The carnage in Iraq constitutes a continuing US-driven Iraqi Genocide (Genocide as clearly defined by Article II subsections (a) -(d) of the Internationally-agreed UN Genocide Convention: http://www.preventgenocide.org/law/convention/text.htm ) and an Iraqi Holocaust in comparison with the World War 2 Jewish Holocaust (5-6 million victims and the man-made World War 2 Bengali Holocaust in British-occupied India (4 million victims). Most of the victims have been Women and Children and the carnage is largely due to gross, war criminal Occupier violation of the Geneva Conventions which demand that Occupiers do everything within their power to keep their Conquered Subjects ALIVE (see Articles 55 and 56 in particular of the Geneva Conventions relating to civilians: http://www.unhchr.ch/html/menu3/b/92.htm ).

After 4 years of illegal, violent Occupation the post-invasion excess deaths in Occupied Iraq total ONE MILLION (from UN Population Division and medical literature data as outlined above). Taken together with 1.7 million excess deaths in the 1990-2003 Sanctions War (UN Population Division) and 3.7 million Iraqi refugees (UNHCR), this constitutes an Iraqi Genocide (as defined by the UN Genocide Convention) and an Iraqi Holocaust in comparison with the WW2 Jewish Holocaust (5-6 million victims) and the “forgotten” WW2 British-caused WW2 Bengali Holocaust (4 million victims). The Iraqi under-5 infant deaths (1990-2007) now total 1.8 million, 90% having been avoidable and due to Western war crimes. Total Iraqi excess deaths (1990-2007) total 2.7 million. The post-invasion excess deaths in Occupied Afghanistan now total 2.2 million and Afghan refugees total about 3.7 million (see: http://mwcnews.net/content/view/11293/42/ ).

Three quarters of the people of Occupied Iraq and Occupied Afghanistan are Women and Children – the Bush War on Terror is in horrible reality a cowardly War on Women and Children, a War on Asian Women and Children and a War on Muslim Women and Children.

Ordinary Germans claimed in 1945 that they “didn’t know” about the Holocaust. Notwithstanding the racism, lying and holocaust-ignoring of Mainstream media, Americans (and British, Australian, Coalition and NATO country citizens) do not have the same excuse – the awful truth is only a few mouse-clicks away. Thus inspection of the UNICEF site (see: http://www.unicef.org/infobycountry/index.html ) will quickly inform one that 0.5 million under-5 year old children die each year in the Occupied Iraqi and Afghan Territories i.e. 1,300 each day, ONE PER MINUTE – this being largely due to gross Occupier violation of the Geneva Conventions that demand that the Occupier keeps its Conquered Subjects ALIVE (see: http://mwcnews.net/content/view/11968/42/ ).




War on Terror???

Who is the Terror?

I have to agree with you there Jess, it's horrific. Our current administration is appalling and quite frankly, I don't hold out much hope that the next will be better. It's sad, but in my opinion, most Americans are too apathetic, if it doesn't directly affect them, they simply don't pay attention. They just don't realize that it DOES affect them, maybe in ways that aren't immediately apparent but it does affect us. And someday, people are going to wake up and wonder what in the hell happened to the nice, safe, cozy little cocoon they've wrapped themselves in.
