Announcement to all Kurdish patriots, warriors and lovers of our city Kerkuk


We ask you to contact the above mentioned groups for any urgent need, because the generations of the al-Muatasim are using the presence of the Fighters of Kurdish Workers Party (PKK) at Kurdistan as an excuse to attack Kurdistan territory. The animosity against the Kurds aims to protect the remnants of the Ottoman Empire.

From now on, we should prepare ourselves to attack all the organizations of Turanians and by all types of weapons and burn these centers by the eternity fire of Baba Gurgur, to burn their dirty corpses to return our usurped rights.

We say to the Jash of the Turkmen Front, you should know that for any attack by the Turks to the Kurdistan region we will take revenge upon you.

This is is a warning, and you have no more excuses.

KERKÜKÜ SAVUNANLAR GURUPLAR KOMUTANLIĞINDAN

İşgal edilen Kerkük’te bulunan Guruplarımızın mücahitlerine…

1. Mücahit Rahimava bölgesi savunucusu Şehit Nazim Hamet Süleyman gurubuna
2. İmam Kasım bölgesi savunucusu Şehit İzzettin Kara Mehmet gurubuna

Visite mouvementée de Donald Rumsfeld à Paris

http://www.courrierinternational.com/article.asp?obj_id=79142

Quatre organisations de défense des droits de l'homme ont profité de la visite de Donald Rumsfeld en France pour déposer une plainte pour "torture" auprès du procureur du Tribunal de grande instance de Paris.

Donald Rumsfeld, ancien ministre de la Défense américain (de janvier 2001 à décembre 2006), était, ce vendredi 26 octobre, en visite privée à Paris. Il avait été invité à prononcer une conférence au Cercle interallié par la direction de l'édition française de la revue américaine Foreign Policy. La plupart des autres invités à cette conférence étaient des journalistes, (dont deux membres de la rédaction de Courrier International). Devant le bâtiment, une poignée de manifestants ont accueilli M. Rumsfeld aux cris d'"Assassin, assassin !", allusion au scandale de la torture dans la prison irakienne d'Abou Ghraib et aux accusations souvent adressées à M. Rumsfeld d'avoir fomenté la menace des armes de destruction massive irakiennes.

Quatre organisations de défense des droits de l'homme ont profité de la visite de Donald Rumsfeld en France pour déposer une plainte pour "torture" auprès du procureur du Tribunal de grande instance de Paris. Il s'agit de la Ligue de défense des droits de l'homme (LDH), de la Fédération internationale des droits de l'homme (FIDH) ainsi que du Center for Constitutional Rights, qui se trouve à New York, et du European Center for Constitutional and Human Rights de Berlin.

Théoriquement, la justice française est compétente pour instruire cette plainte, car selon la Convention internationale contre la torture de 1984 et ratifiée par la France, les faits de torture peuvent être poursuivis partout dans le monde, quels qu'en soient les lieux et les auteurs. Mais c'est la cinquième fois qu'une plainte de ce genre est déposée contre Donald Rumsfeld depuis 2001, et aucune n'a encore abouti.

Rumsfeld hit with torture lawsuit while visiting Paris

http://rawstory.com//printstory.php?story=8074
10/26/2007
Filed by Jason Rhyne

Former US Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld's jaunt to France was interrupted today by an unscheduled itinerary item -- he was slapped with a criminal complaint charging him with torture.

Rumsfeld, in Paris for a discussion sponsored by the magazine Foreign Policy, was tracked down by representatives of a coalition of international human rights groups, who informed the architect of the US invasion of Iraq that they had submitted a torture suit against him in French court.

The filed documents allege that during his tenure, the former defense secretary "ordered and authorized" torture of detainees at both the American-run Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq and the US military's detainment facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

The head of one of the groups responsible for bringing the charges, the US-based Center for Constitutional Rights, told RAW STORY today by phone that the suit was a long time coming.

"We've been working on cornering Rumsfeld and getting him indicted somewhere going on three years now," said the Center's president, Michael Ratner. "Four days ago, we got confidential information he was going to be in France."

Joined by activists, attorneys for the human rights groups caught up with Rumsfeld on his way to a breakfast meeting. "He was walking down the street with just one person," said Ratner.

"Around 20 campaigners gave Rumsfeld a rowdy welcome...yelling 'murderer,' waving a banner and trying to push into the building," reports AFP.
Ratner, who wasn't personally at the scene, says his sources told him that the former defense secretary made some pre-scheduled remarks at the meeting before ducking through a door leading to the US Embassy.

According to Ratner, France has a legal responsibility under international law to prosecute Rumsfeld for torture abuses.

"If a torturer comes into your territory," he said, "there's an obligation to either prosecute the person or return him to a place where he will be prosecuted."
The rights groups notably cite three memorandums signed by the defense secretary between October 2002 and April 2003 "legimitizing the use of torture" including the "hooding" of detainees, sleep deprivation and the use of dogs.

Although his group has been a part of previous attempts to bring charges against Rumsfeld, including two former tries in Germany, Ratner believes French court has the highest chance of success.

"There are Guantananamo detainees who were tortured that are living in France," he said. "It gives French courts another reason to prosecute."
Ratner says Europe is "getting very hot for Rumsfeld," and suggests a French court could at least issue its version of a subpoena.

"We hope that this case will move forward," he said, "especially as the US says it can continue to torture people."

Other groups involved in the complaint include the International Federation of Human Rights, the French League for Human Rights and Germany's European Center for Constitutional and Human Rights.

More details about the lawsuit are available at the website of the Center for Constitutional Rights.
(with wire reports)


Demand That Rumsfeld Be Charged with Torture

Synopsis
Fax or Call the French Prosecutor Jean Claude Marin and demand that he open a investigation into Rumsfeld's involvement in torture.

Description
The Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR) has filed a complaint against Donald Rumsfeld in France, charging him again with torture committed during the U.S. government’s so-called “war on terror” in Iraq and at Guantánamo.
As France has ratified the UN Convention against Torture, France has an obligation under domestic and international law to prosecute or extradite alleged perpetrators of torture.

But for the complaint to go forward, the national French Prosecutor must decide to open an official investigation. Please take a few minutes today to write a letter to the French Prosecutor telling him that Donald Rumsfeld must be held accountable for his crimes and that the French government should open an investigation into the torture he explicitly authorized.

Fax or call the French Prosecutor Jean Claude Marin and demand that he open an investigation into Rumsfeld's involvement in torture.

Layla Anwar's post: "Papier Mâché..."

Papier Mâché... by Layla Anwar
link to Arab Woman's blues:
http://arabwomanblues.blogspot.com/2007/10/papier-mch.html

An acquaintance approached me the other day and suggested I join the world of media/journalism. Utilize my writing skills and whatever intelligence I have left, to good use...Good use? Because the media is good news? And am not only talking about mainstream media here...

Besides, becoming part of some media - and that includes some of the “alternative media” also known for its share of blatant lies - means I will no longer be allowed to tell you some basic truths.And I don’t want to miss out on the fun by being clustered and cooped in some box writing news reports when I can sit here and spill it all out, without having to be so " objective, impartial and fair ” about it. I know, some may think it is very important to get the Truth out. Big deal.

The Truth is out and knowing the Truth out there is not ENOUGH . ACTING on that truth is what brings results. And acting on that truth does not consist of signing petitions and joining a protest once a year either. And acting on that truth does not consist of reading articles and passing them on and filing them in your inbox under the "truth."All of this remains words on paper...

Daily, you read words and papers. A bulimia of words and papers...So ?Daily, I read thousands of words and write them too...So?
Has it changed anything? Has it improved anything ? Has it given me and millions of other Iraqis any hope...?

Sadly, the answer is NO.
Why is that? History shows that words followed by actions moved masses and produced change.
How come you are still asleep when a Genocide is happening in your name?
And repeat that word GENOCIDE, until it sinks in deep, into your thick skulls. How come you are still asleep when you are regurgitating words daily ?
How come you are so sunk deep into some lethargy unable to move yet you go on babbling away about the intricacies of politically correct definitions ?

So in reply to this acquaintance and his suggestion, my answer is NO. I will not join any media. I know you will say because the media manipulates, etc...
We are not being told the truth, we are fed lies, we have been robbed of what this country - yours - stands for and what our founding fathers - yours - fought for and after all we are suffering too, we are overstressed, overworked, underpaid, riddled with hormones, numbed, etc...etc...etc...
More words again...Delusional words and delusional beliefs.

I have news for you here and they are not good.

You are not only being fed lies, you entertain those lies by constantly lying to yourselves as well. The ILLEGAL invasion and occupation of Iraq. Its massive, irremediable DESTRUCTION. Its untold suffering. Its deaths in the millions. Its refugees in the millions. Its plundering in the billions of $. Its rape and torture; physical, geographical, psychological, social, spiritual...right down to the individual body. Its contamination with the most lethal chemical weapons in history; DU, phosphorus bombs, Neutron bombs, cluster bombs, Napalm...
Its stripping it away from any identity, from its history, from its roots, from its people...and I can go on and on and on...ALL of that has failed to MOVE YOU TO ACT.
And that despite your knowing "alternative medias" and reading hundreds of articles, and joining hands in prayers, and participating in conferences and giving speeches and showing up on you tube, and blogging and interviews... and, and, and...

And you want me to believe your lies of how you have been robbed of the ideals of what your nation stood for ? Who are you kidding here ?
You are kidding none but yourselves.

Iraq was the golden opportunity that you have deliberately or stupidly failed to seize. And I call that BAD FAITH.

Iraq was the golden historical opportunity for you to finally put into practice those ”ideals of your founding fathers” that you o' so preach about all the time...
But you did NOT. And that is a FACT!
And I will tell you why you did not. Simple. Because you have no such ideals.

You are deluding yourselves. You have forgotten that your so called "democracy" has been nothing but a SHAM, a travesty from the very beginning. And you have also conveniently forgotten that your so called "democracy" only gave rights to "african americans" in the late 60's. And that is just 40 years ago. Until then, you were living segregated lives...preaching “democracy.”
So what ideals are you exactly talking about?

And I can go on and on about your own history but your history does not interest me...anymore. You do not interest me either. Nor you, nor your collective or individual stories...Words and more words...and more words.
Files of papers filled with words, riddled with words like bullets. And this is exactly what your words ended up as, they ended as...BULLETS.
Bullets that ripped through us, through our being, our psyche, our identity, our culture, our very existence...

So spare me your words, articles, news, analysis, research, theories...papers.
And remember you are not to preach to me, someone whose ancestral fathers invented the letter and the word and taught you how to write.

You are nothing but words on paper. And we have become nothing but a target people riddled with your bullets.

"Take your words and your papers and make some papier mâché".


And here is a definiton of what papier mâché means"...shreds of paper mixed with glue or paste, that can be molded into various shapes when wet and becomes hard...when dry."


They make boxes out of papier mâché. So make boxes out your words and papers...and store more words and paper in them. Or if you feel terribly charitable and want to give yourselves a good conscience, ship your papier mâché boxes over to Iraq as...coffins.


Only then can you truly pride yourselves by remembering your "founding fathers." And let it go down the annals of your glorious "history" as - and don't forget to quote me...


"We killed them with bullets, covered them in words and buried them in paper boxes."


Congratulations to you and your founding fathers.
