Hi Sol My belated contribution...just received these links from a friend...it's also worth keeping an eye on the website of the Stop the War Coalition www.stopwar.or.uk to stay up to date with anti-war stuff in the UK.
From: "Dr David Turner" To: <Recipient list suppressed> Subject: Information sources Date: 27 March 2003 01:48 The following sources of information on the war are highly recommended: The Memory Hole -- This is Gulf War 2 [Photographs of Iraqi casualties (civilian and military), including the Al Jazeera pictures; SOME ARE VERY DISTURBING] http://www.thememoryhole.org/war/gulfwar2/ Iraq Body Count Database [Constantly updated civilian casualty figures; this is a very high-quality site, with information carefully collated from a wide range of sources] http://www.iraqbodycount.net/bodycount.htm Global Policy Forum -- Iraq Crisis [Lots of background reading that sets the war in its proper context, historical and otherwise; a lot of the material here is very hard to come by in print form (you'd need to spend a day or two in the library of the School of Oriental and African Studies -- I know because I had to, when I was looking for some of this stuff a while back)] http://www.globalpolicy.org/security/issues/irqindx.htm IndyMedia UK ["Samizdat" reporting on the anti-war movement; lots of stuff that never gets into the mainstream media (for instance, very detailed eye-witness reports of the outrageous police operation to stop people demonstrating at RAF Fairford last Saturday)] http://uk.indymedia.org/ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sol Nte" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, March 27, 2003 9:36 AM Subject: Re: FLUXLIST: small protest continues > Hi all, > > Thanks for responses and comments regarding media coverage in the US.
