Los Angeles Indymedia : Activist News

Oh righteous people of the world! On behalf of the North American Committee Against Zionism and Imperialism (NACAZAI), with a heavy heart I call on all the progressive and revolutionary regimes, organizations, parties and personages to do anything and everything in their power to stop the execution of al-Mujahid Comrade Saddam Hussein, the sole legitimate President of Iraq.

President Hussein was never a "dictator" or "genocidal" monster as portrayed by the enemies of Iraq and the world. He is innocent of all charged directed against him by those serpents and vampires who thirst for his righteous blood. These charges are largely the invention of the Zionist entity and a certain clique of anti-Arab racist hegemonists in Iran, and used by the USA and other occupying powers to justify their crimes against the Arab nation. Furthermore, even were we do believe the propaganda of the Zionist kept press against President Hussein, they would still not give legitimacy to a "trial" of the head of state by national traitors who come to power against the will of the masses via imperialist coercion.

Lots of people say that they love Palestine, but only Saddam Hussein of all the leaders of the world, has taken such measures to defend Palestine's Arab identity. He never abandoned the principle of real sovereignty over shame independence- independence that is real on paper only. We cannot say that for Ahmadinejad and the Persian filth who banter on and on about Palestine and Islamic unity, but in practice fund death squads that are ethnically cleansing Palestinians and supporting the occupation of two of its neighbors.

President Saddam Hussein is the one man who can single-handedly put an end to the sectarian violence brought on by the occupation. The Ba'ath party was and is a progressive socialist-leaning force which brought down sectarian divisions. In Iraq it has always had amongst its supporters wide numbers of Shi'a and Sunni Muslims and also Christians. Furthermore it enjoys support from the Arabs and many Turkomen and Kurdish people as well.

He is the anti-Zionist symbol and call to action for freedom-loving people around the world. Millions of people all over the world have marched in the streets for the release of President Hussein but the Zionist-controlled press in the western world refuses to cover this fact.

People of the "Third World" are tired of the apathy of million of people in the USA towards their governments imperialistic and pro-Zionist policies. The Iraqi Resistance has warned that serious punishment will result for America if President Hussein is martyred. For the sake of the security of those that they love, and out of a spirit of social justice all of us living in the USA must stand with the world in defending the life of President Hussein and actively supporting and aiding the Iraqi Resistance.

Here at NACAZAI we will always honor the revolutionary legacy of Comrade Saddam Hussein, and defend his honor militantly.

--- John Paul Cupp, Public Relations Director of the North American Committee Against Zionism and Imperialism (NACAZAI)

The US judges foreign leaders not by their alleged crimes, but by their willingness to cooperate with US imperialism. Remember how the Carter Administration refused to hand the murderous Shah over to Iran, and how just a few years ago the US Government opposed the plan to try Pinochet in Spain for his crimes, including the murder of Spanish citizens. The cynics in the Bush administration also know that handing over Hussein to his executioners is also signing a death warrant for Americans, as the still powerful Baath movement will surely take its revenge.

Now that Saddam is no longer with US in physical form, he won't be able to talk about the source of weapons that he used to kill the Kurds and Shia in southern Iraq. The source is none other than Donald Rumsfeld, the special envoy of the Reagan administration and former Sec of Defense under the GW Bush regime. Even Rumsfeld knew about Saddam's planned genocide of the Kurds and Shia, though at the time Saddam was an important ally of the US against Iran. As always, Rumsfeld followed CIA policy of looking the other way..

See no evil..

Hear no evil..

Speak no evil..

from Znet;

"Five years before Saddam Hussein’s now infamous 1988 gassing of the Kurds, a key meeting took place in Baghdad that would play a significant role in forging close ties between Saddam Hussein and Washington. It happened at a time when Saddam was first alleged to have used chemical weapons. The meeting in late December 1983 paved the way for an official restoration of relations between Iraq and the US, which had been severed since the 1967 Arab-Israeli war.

With the Iran-Iraq war escalating, President Ronald Reagan dispatched his Middle East envoy, a former secretary of defense, to Baghdad with a hand-written letter to Iraqi President Saddam Hussein and a message that Washington was willing at any moment to resume diplomatic relations.

That envoy was Donald Rumsfeld.

Rumsfeld’s December 19-20, 1983 visit to Baghdad made him the highest-ranking US official to visit Iraq in 6 years. He met Saddam and the two discussed “topics of mutual interest,” according to the Iraqi Foreign Ministry. “[Saddam] made it clear that Iraq was not interested in making mischief in the world,” Rumsfeld later told The New York Times. “It struck us as useful to have a relationship, given that we were interested in solving the Mideast problems.”

So why then, is there no war crimes trial for Rumsfeld aiding and abetting Saddam as an accomplice to genocide??

Guess we could put Reagan on trial, though that fascist fucker kicked the bucket before he could be held accountable for his contribution to genocide. Let's try to keep Rummy around a while longer so that he can be on trial for war crimes also..
