Dear all,
Belgian, Dutch and French anti-embargo activists
and medical personnel had planned a solidarity travel/medical mission to Iraq.
We had an agreement with the ministry of health an the Iraqi organisation
for friendship, peace and solidarity, to organise a conference on the subject of
the effects of DU. But the trip in november didn't go through, because
of the events on 11/9 . So we postponed our mission until
10 april-27 april 2002.
Our mission has two parts: a) a
humanitarian/cultural visit
b) a
scientific mission (with lectures for medical specialists in Iraqi
hospitals, and a conference on the effects of DU).
A Belgian television-team will accompany
us.
If we have enough people to come with us, we can
hire a plane that can take us straight from Damas to Baghdad.
So here is my question to you
English, German, Italian, Spanish etc.. anti-embargo activists,
or interested people to go to Iraq: wouldn't it be great if there should be a
European delegation of interested people, and scientists, to go to
Iraq? Wouldn't it be great if we joined forces and go to Iraq
together?
If you're interested, let me know. (do have a look
at our website www.irak.be)
Dirk Adriaensens.
