Another inhuman deportation

15-02-2005 21:58

I've not seen anything on this story except for on the Channel 4 news so I don't know if there is a campaign going or not but I'm sure writing to the Home Office wouldn't do any harm for a start.

War Crimes in Fallujah: Photographic Evidence.

15-02-2005 19:18

Doctor Salam Ismael took aid to Fallujah last month. This is his story of how the US murdered a city

IT WAS the smell that first hit me, a smell that is difficult to describe, and one that will never leave me. It was the smell of death. Hundreds of corpses were decomposing in the houses, gardens and streets of Fallujah. Bodies were rotting where they had fallen—bodies of men, women and children, many half-eaten by wild dogs.
