Dear Eric and all Thanks for notifying us of the resources, Eric. As their author, I tend to agree with your assessment. So any critical comments to me, please. Whilst I'm at it, I've started compiling an index of news reports - largely taking the most informative from the compilations of Peter Brooke, Voices and Iraq Sanctions Monitor - and ordering them by theme. So if you're in a hurry and want a few soundbites on, say, what regional governments think of an attack on Iraq, the following may be useful: http://www.arabmediawatch.com/iraq/reading/index.htm Finally, on the CASI site, the recent Save the Children UK report - "Understanding Kurdish Livelihoods in Northern Iraq" (February 2002) - is definitely worth reading. http://www.cam.ac.uk/societies/casi/info/savechildren/scf0202niraqrep.pdf Oh, and the URLs that Eric provides are slightly inaccurate. They should be http://www.arabmediawatch.com/iraq/mythwmdevidence.htm and http://www.arabmediawatch.com/iraq/mythofunscom98.htm I hope there's something useful in all this for campaigning.
