A plurality of Americans believe, not only that Iraqis should be grateful, but that Iraqis are in fact grateful...

Iraq s depleted uranium contamination spreads

How the US Exported its 'Dirty War' Policy to Iraq, with Fatal Consequences

By Murtaza Hussain

Pentagon officials at the highest levels oversaw torture facilities during the war in Iraq. The allegations are decidedly gruesome: rooms used for interrogating detainees stained with blood; children tied into extreme stress positions with their bodies beaten to discoloration.

10 years on: the elephant in the room the media still won t mention

Iraq was a war crime

Op-Ed

News reports list ''failures'', ''setbacks'' and ''lessons'' for ''the West'', but there s never a line of background saying the people who started the war are now criminally liable.

Even now, the US is paying billions to private contractors

By Michael Boyle

Britain s Role In Shaping Iraq

By Patrick Cockburn

British leaders were blood-thirsty. After the revolt of 1920, TE Lawrence, Lawrence of Arabia, wrote to the London Observer to say: ''It is odd that we do not use poison gas on these occasions.''

Donald Rumsfeld Must be Indicted over Iraq Militias

By Richard Norton-Taylor

If there were any lingering doubts about whether the former US defence secretary, Donald Rumsfeld, should be indicted before a criminal court, evidence that he asked a veteran of American dirty wars in central America to help set up vicious sectarian militias in Iraq should end them once and for all.

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article34206.htm



MA Prosecutor Lets Rumsfeld Walk, Charges Protester Instead

It turns out that Rumsfeld not only knew about the worst of the worst abuses of the Bush Torture Era, including what was happening at Guantanamo, in Afghanistan, and at Abu Ghraib. He perhaps even ordered it.

http://is.gd/xTztgX



Repeal the Military Force Law

Mr. Bush used the authorization law as an excuse to kidnap hundreds of people, guilty and blameless people alike, and throw them into secret prisons where many were tortured.
