Convenient genocide: Another failed war to re-arrange the Middle East | Middle East Eye
Another eloquent, brilliant piece from Ramzy
M. Baroud. "Not that IS’ brutal tactics in eastern, northern and central
Iraq should be tolerated. But a true act of genocide had already taken
place in Iraq for nearly two decades, starting with
the US war in 1990-91, a decade-long embargo and a most destructive war
and occupation starting in 2003. Not once did a major newspaper
editorial in the US bestow the term “genocide” on the killing and
maiming of millions of Iraqis."
