Stop The War

April 14, 2018

Over a million people demonstrated on the streets of London to voice their opposition to military action against Iraq in 2003.

There were also anti-war gatherings in Glasgow and Belfast – all part of a worldwide weekend of protest with hundreds of rallies and marches in up to 60 countries.The demonstration ended in Hyde Park where demonstrators listened to speakers from around the world. Women speakers included former minister Mo Mowlem, Vanessa Redgrave and Bianca Jagger. Playwright Harold Pinter made a rare public speech, saying America was “a country run by a bunch of criminal lunatics with Tony Blair as a hired Christian thug”.

March 19th 2018 marked 15 years since the U.S.-U.K invasion of Iraq in 2003, and the American people have no idea of the enormity of the calamity the invasion unleashed. The US military has refused to keep a tally of Iraqi deaths. General Tommy Franks, the man in charge of the initial invasion, bluntly told reporters, “We don’t do body counts.” One survey found that most Americans thought Iraqi deaths were in the tens of thousands. But, calculations by Stop The War, using the best information available, show a catastrophic estimate of 2.4 million Iraqi deaths since the 2003 invasion. I am posting these photographs because it looks like we are going to be on the streets again against an unaccountable government that wants to follow a fanatic in the White House rather than the people they are supposed to represent.
