Several hundred Iraqi journalists on Tuesday held a rally in front of the Iraqi Journalists Union (IJU) to protest against possible U.S. military attacks against Baghdad, the state-run Iraq TV reported. Mohammad Abd Mehdi, first deputy secretary of the IJU, delivered a speech at the rally and called on the Arab summit, due to open on Wednesday in the Lebanese capital of Beirut, to support the Palestinian intifada (uprising) against Israel and reject U.S. military action against the Iraqi people. The protest came ahead of the two-day Arab summit and Arab leaders are widely expected to adopt a Saudi peace initiative, which offers full Arab normalization of ties with Israel in exchange for the latter's withdrawal from the Arab lands it occupied in the 1967 Mideast war. The summit is also likely to voice opposition to any possible U. S. military intervention against Iraq, as Arab League Secretary General Amr Moussa has said that the summit will oppose U.S. military action against Baghdad. U.S. President George W. Bush has branded Iraq as part of an " axis of evil" and strongly warned that Iraq may become the next target of the U.S.-led war on terror. However, U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney, during his Mideast tour earlier this month, received little support for any U.S. campaign against Iraq in the face of surging violence between the Palestinians and Israel. **** --------------------------- ANTI-NATO INFORMATION LIST ==^================================================================ This email was sent to: archive@jab.org EASY UNSUBSCRIBE click here: http://topica.com/u/?a84x2u.a9617B Or send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] T O P I C A -- Register now to manage your mail! http://www.topica.com/partner/tag02/register ==^================================================================
