One of its major concerns is the control of the energy resources basically petrol.In Iraq it was not enough for the imperialists to apply the instruments of low intensity warfare but they had to intervene directly using its entire bellicose … [read more]

Resolution of the Anti-imperialist Camp Assisi 2003Support the Iraqi resistance against the US occupation!After more than one decade of genocide against the Iraqi people imposed by the United Nations, the Anglo-American warmongers invaded Iraq violating not only the elementary democratic right of national self-determination but also international law. Against the will of the vast majority of the world population, its nations and even the historic US allies they unleashed their criminal aggression.Everybody knew that their justifications were built on scarcely veiled fabrications. While the US and Israel dispose of vast arsenals of weapons of mass destruction – and also proved to be ready to use them like in Hiroshima and Nagasaki –, Iraq was nearly disarmed.Actually the US did not … [read more]

Resolution of the Anti-imperialist Camp Assisi 2003For a popular tribunal on the "black list of terrorists"!The pre-emptive and permanent war against any opposition to the US-led imperialist world order does not only target states like Iraq but also social and national liberation movements as well as revolutionary organisations. The US and their allies are persecuting their opponents on all fields, destroying the most elementary democratic achievements.The most appalling example is the new type of concentration camps built in Guantánamo and possibly elsewhere for which the US leviathan declares itself accountable to nobody. With the creation of the new category of "enemy combatants" the US follow Nazi Germany with its category of "Untermenschen" (subhumans). Both notions degrade human to … [read more]

Resolution of the Anti-imperialist Camp Assisi 2003For a Constituent Assembly in Nepal!The popular masses of Nepal are today subject to the dictatorship of the royal family and the upper castes backed by Indian expansionism and US imperialism. A vast majority is doomed to live in abject misery being denied basic political, social and human rights. Especially affected are the religious, ethnic and tribal minorities as well as the lower castes which often coincide.The imposition of democracy from above by the king in the early 90s miserable failed as the social, cultural and political situation of the masses subsequently did not improve. On the contrary, the neo-liberal recipes deteriorated the situation while in parliament the interests of the popular masses were not given voice.By 1996 … [read more]

It is an attack on other anti-imperialist organisations, liberation … [read more]

Resolution of the Anti-imperialist Camp Assisi 2003Against US overseas military basis"The presence of American forces overseas is one of the most profound symbols of the US commitment to allies and friends. Through our willingness to use force in our own defence and in defence of others, the US demonstrates is resolve to maintain a balance of power that favours freedom.

George W. Bush, National Security Strategy, September 20, 2001"Maintaining an overseas military presence is a cornerstone of US National Security Strategy and a key … [read more]

The Account of Jehad and Comrades in the Fight Against Imperialism in IraqFirst of all, I wish to greet you all, comrades, for having taken the initiative of inviting me to this Camp, and I hope this get together of people fighting against imperialism around the world will be of benefit, in the sense of sharing experience and extending solidarity.Now, to move on to my experience in Iraq.
