UN report on US executions
31-05-2009 00:20
A report this week for the UN on US domestic and overseas executions calls for a national “commission of inquiry” to investigate cases. It estimates the total number of uninvestigated Private Contractor murders in Iraq "to be in the hundreds, perhaps thousands", while obliquely criticising Obamas deceptive aim of “moving forward”. It also points out no one senior in rank to Major has been prosecuted.iraqi asylum seekers claim refuge in church in denmark

Around 60-70 Iraqi’s have sought refuge in a church in Copenhagen, after the Danish government finalised plans to forcefully deport around 280 people to Iraq despite the country’s instability and objections from UNHCR.Bush, Clinton get standing ovation after Toronto 'conversation'

Bush also struck a congenial note when he took the stage, giving Clinton top billing as he told the audience: "Welcome to the Bill and George Show." He joked that his mother, Barbara Bush, told him Clinton has been spending so much time with his own father, former US president George HW Bush, that he is "like a son to her. So brother, it's good to see you."Rape photos at Abu Ghraib

The main 'world' story in the Daily Telegraph today is the confirmation by Major General Antony Taguba that photographs of rape at Abu Ghraib are among those being kept secret by Obama.100 prisoners murdered by the US

This is a deliberate repost of Fred Spencer's "Human-Rights: USA-CIA-Torture".With apologies to Fred, most people here stop reading when they see an article in German, and his title indicates this is about torture. It isn't, it is about mass murder, so I've linked to the source article and the Democracy Now! interview.
CACI disowned by insurers
19-05-2009 21:42
The CACI corporation, a preferred UK government contractor, has been legally disowned by it's own insurer over already proven yet unprosecuted allegations it tortured Iraqis in Abu Ghraib. This is more significant that it may seem at first glance. It's also a bit of a tease, I'll add more when the Telegraph has finished exposing MPs.AMN Action Roundup #1

Obama and Brown complicit in Abu Ghraib abuse
18-05-2009 11:08
The Daily Telegraph today links both Barak Obama and Gordon Brown to the torture, abuse, rapes and murders at Abu Ghraib and other US black prisons [1]. The supposedly liberal, anti-war, anti-torture President has just appointed General Stanley MacChrystal as his new army chief in Afghanistan. It links him to the Human Rights Watch report into that abuse 'No Blood, No Foul' [2].Smash EDO: Thank you, Maydayers!

30-04-2009 19:47
In the Middle East, we are now witness to a post-sectarian phase; the unity and solidarity that exists between its' peoples - in identifying the key challenges that face this region - is palpable in whichever direction you turn. Western discourse on the Middle East however, remains fixated on talk of civil wars, sectarian strife and religious tension.Smash EDO Press Release -Brighton Police threaten 'Ringleaders' of Bomb Protest
