Jubilee Iraq!

Now that the focus is on Iraq, lets make sure that their massive debts are cancelled, so that the Iraqi people are better able to run their own country. This focus will help highlight the debt problem all over the developing world. Visit www.jubileeiraq.org for more information.

Now that Coalition forces have 'liberated' the Iraqi people, lets get them to put their money where their mouth is. The huge debt run up by Saddam Hussein in the last 30 years clearly meets the principle of 'odious debt' and should be cancelled immediately. If they refuse, then their hypocrisy becomes evident; if they accept this principle, then the campaign to revoke debt all over the developing world receives a huge shot in the arm.

Visit www.jubileeiraq.org to sign the petition and get involved!
