Back in 1988 I joined the protests in Britain against Saddam gassing the Kurds at Halabja. At the time it was clear that the Anfal campaign was helped by the west. US and UK governments armed, financed and fully backed Saddams Baathist regime.

Yet these criminals - like Thatcher - are still free, wealthy and powerfull. And their power structure is still murding people in Iraq and elsewhere.

I wish you mentioned this in your agitation. It is important to avoid becoming the mere tools of imperialism! The Kurdish struggle is worth more than that!

Hang Saddam with the entrails of Thatcher and Bush!

Saddam Husseins genocide of the Kurdish people in which hundreds of thousands of Kurds were either murdered or driven from their homes justfied the war by Britain and America to overthrow Saddam Hussein. Saddam was the worlds' worst dictator. The world is a lot better off without him!

How many since the US/UK went in?

1) The so called 'supporter of the Kurds' above only cares about the Kurds when it serves western imperialism. What about the Kurds of Turkey? Tens of thousands killed, thousands imprisoned and tortured and 100,000's driven from their homes, - by a NATO member and ally of the USA and UK! HYPOCRITE!!! Here is an urgent call out from the UK Kurdish Federation:

'The Kurdish Federation UK, along with comedian Mark Thomas, Peace in Kurdistan Campaign and Campaign Against Criminalising Communities (CAMPACC) has organised a protest against the government’s decision to ban the Kurdish group KONGRA-GEL under the Anti-Terrorism Act 2006. The protest will take place this Wednesday (Aug 9) at Downing Street from 5.30-7pm.

Here is a brief statement from CAMPACC:

“The recent decision by the British government to add the Kurdish organisation KONGRA-GEL to the list of banned organisations under Anti-Terrorism Act 2006 represents a further step in criminalising the Kurdish community in Europe.

“This step follows the adoption of new anti-terrorism by Turkey which criminalises basic civil rights such as freedom of expression. Despite a new wave of repression in south-eastern Turkey the Kurdish people continue to believe in, and press for, a peaceful solution as urged also be Abdullah Ocalan. Criminalising their representative bodies which are urging the peaceful path to achieving democratic, human and cultural rights only reinforces the difficulties of achieving a democratic and political resolution of the Kurdish question.”

2) 100, 000's driven from their homes in Lebanon by Israel in the past weeks! You say Iraqs treatment of the Kurds justified western Invasion - but your not calling for the west to bomb Israel, are you? HYPOCRITE!!!

3) It has already been explained above how Saddam could not have waged his wars against Iran and Kurdistan without western backing. Remember the arms to Iraq scandal? Yet you are incapable of responding to this point, and continue to spout western imperialist propaganda. But we all know about the distaster engulfing Iraq after the wests unjustified invasion.

But I am probably not even debating here with a real person! You are probably some sort of spambot computer programme designed to post imperialist propaganda on the net! Thats why you continue withg your blinkered view, regaredless of the truth of the arguments put forward. F*CK YOU!!!

FREE ALL KURDISTAN! FREE PALESTINE! FREE IRAQ! GET WETERN IMPERIALISM OUT OF THE MIDDLE EAST!

Mr/Ms BK,

Reading your rather aggressive comments has given me a feeling that you must be one of those Old fashion lefties [most probably the Maoist one].Whom just shout against America [ just anti-American ] without mentioning their own experience in China and former Russia.

I just want to remind you that the era of the leftist has gone, and your[leftiest] shouting is considered as an ashes of the fossils. We don’t want STATE capitalist in the name of Lenin or Mao.
Anti-Capitalist is the movement of this era.
Anti-capitalist = anti- wage slavery + NO Leader + NO hierarchy organisation

But unfortunately you seem to be too old to understand what I am talking about, leave the struggle to your children and ground children.

Poor lefties !!!!!
