El Salvador will not leave Iraq "till Iraqis control the situation"

03-08-2008 20:48 | Anti-militarism | Iraq | Other Press | World

It's all very easy at times to forget that when the proper instruments of international arbitration were sidelined (UN) and systematically delegitamized (IAEA) in the lead-up to the illegal war on aggression on Iraq in 2003 the subsequent classified occupying power still being the USA, there was assembled a motley crew of states termed the "coalition of the willing".

Colombian use of Red Cross + Telesur Logo in rescue - illegal - Chavez

28-07-2008 18:59 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Terror War | World

Hugo Chavez has been broadcasting his weekly Sunday telly show almost without fail now for many years. It both gives him an opportunity to get close to his people and also get up the noses of his enemies. Yesterday's show saw him speak of Colombia's "operation Jaque" which saw Ingrid Betancourt rescued on her 2321st day of captivity and the use by Colombia of the red cross insignia of the International Red Cross society as well as the logo of the pan-American TV network "TeleSur".

Guardian Story Reveals Brown a Christian Zionist

22-07-2008 05:25 | Anti-militarism | Other Press | World
