Dear editor - a useful site called Iraq Body Count. J Parker

This is very disappointing. Who burned the library? One has to wonder what it was they associated with the library to have the people turn their frustrations on such old institutions. Mazin
It is with profound sorrow that I forward this email. As a scholar and as an Arab, I grieve for the loss of the entire historical legacy of Iraq. No event since the Mongol invasion has been so devastating to our history. If this does not steel us against Orientalism and against those who would further ransack our history- I do not know what will. I can't write anything more- the tears are streaming down my face...

W H E R E I S T H E T R U T H A B O U T I R A Q ?
By Dr. Biljana Vankovska, TFF Associate, Macedonia
"It feels unfair and unjust to prevent a tear from dropping - at least, a tear for a child, whose name I learned from Fisk's daily reports from Baghdad. In his and some other reports coming from the spot, from the eyewitnesses, I can hear people's screams, despair, their blood flows from each printed line..." "Ages will pass before the Iraqi youth recovers from Saddam's rule, from twelve years of genocidal sanctions and the "victorious" military campaign. But will American society ever summon the strength to face the truth about the crimes done? If our Balkan experience teaches us anything, it is surely that it will be a painful and very long process." - a passionate plea from a leading intellectual in Macedonia to other intellectuals to get out of the protected world and face reality Read Dr. Vankovska's moving piece here http://www.transnational.org/pressinf/2003/pf181_WhatTrueIraq.html - and remember also the daily comments to the war, Think Freely About Iraq here: http://www.transnational.org/forum/meet/2003/At_War_ThinkFreely2.html

It
looks like someone is looking for an easy way out!
This discussion about bureaucracy and
infighting jeopardizing the search for these "banned
weapons", is b.s and this administration knows it!
Incidentally, it appears as though the U.S was, once again, able to
undermine the U.N in this search for these weapons. As you will
notice, no U.N inspectors are part of George W. Bush's team,
which was precisely what they wanted!

U.S. Civilian Experts Say Bureaucracy and
Infighting Jeopardize Search for Weapons
By WILLIAM J. BROAD
The experts are part of a team of 40 to 60 people, both Americans and foreigners, whose mission is to follow the military's initial searches with more exhaustive ones. Many are scientists who formerly worked in Iraq for the United Nations and are considered experts on Iraqi arms. So far, some of them say, the military's search efforts seem superficial and misguided. "They're going to blow it," one would-be inspector said. "That's the concern of a number of us." This expert, and about half a dozen other would-be inspectors, spoke on condition of anonymity out of fear that they could be dropped from the team if they speak out publicly. They said they wanted to go to Iraq to help uncover illicit weapons they believe are still there, but well hidden. http://www.nytimes.com/2003/04/16/international/worldspecial/16WEAP.htm

From the point of Light within the Mind of God Let light stream forth into the minds of men. Let Light descend on Earth. From the point of Love within the Heart of God Let love stream forth into the hearts of men. May the Mahdi return to Earth. From the center where the Will of God is known Let purpose guide the little wills of men. The purpose which the Prophets know and serve. From the center which we call the race of men Let the Plan of Love and Light work out and may it seal the door where evil dwells. Let Light and Love and Power restore the Plan on Earth.
