AFP. 5 March 2003. Thousands of Bangladeshis protest against Iraq war. DHAKA -- Thousands of Bangladeshis, including teachers, writers and journalists, demonstrated Wednesday against a US-led war on Iraq and urged world peace. The demonstrators, numbering about 8,000 according to organisers and witnesses, converged at a memorial in the capital Dhaka and sang anti-war songs. "Iraq is being disarmed to occupy its oil reserves and to establish complete rule of the American imperialists," architect Sheikh Muhammad Shahidullah told the rally. "Bangladeshis want world peace and today we are here to express our solidarity with peace-loving people across the world. "Unless we can stop this war on Iraq, American imperialism will be established across the world bringing misery to millions," he added. Leftwing parties also joined the rally, with the Communist Party of Bangladesh handing out a statement which warned that "unless this Anglo-American attack (on Iraq) is stopped, humanity will be faced with disaster." . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
