Latest News

Reported written 11/November/2004

Water supplies to Tall Afar, Samarra and Fallujah have been cut off during US attacks in the past two months, affecting up to 750,000 civilians. This appears to form part of a deliberate US policy of denying water to the residents of cities under attack. If so, it has been adopted without a public debate, and without consulting Coalition partners. It is a serious breach of international humanitarian law, and is deepening Iraqi opposition to the United States, other Coalition members, and the Iraqi interim government.

Demand Disarmament and Compliance with NPT

The Abolition Global Council has sent a letter to members of the Security Council and other representatives to the UN about a "non-proliferation" resolution proposed by the United States to stop the spread of nuclear, biological and chemical weapons which utterly fails to mention any obligation for the nuclear weapons states to get rid of their own nuclear weapons, let alone stop their illegal proliferation of new weapons.

Key Issues

Some of the key issues for the co-ordination of action throughout the Network

What effects flow from the United States' commitment to domination of space, sea, air, land and communications in pursuit of the horrifying doctrine of "Full Spectrum Dominance" (see also Spokesman 80), or from associated US Airforce thinking on "The Enemy as a System"?

The implications for Europe of the revival of Star Wars: how to combat the ending of the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty, mutations in nuclear weapons doctrine, changes in the nuclear balance, proliferation, moves towards nuclear war-fighting.

How to support the call for full public scrutiny of the effects of testing, production and use of depleted uranium ammunition, for full public disclosure of all information, and for prohibition of the use of depleted uranium munitions.

The relevance of nuclear-weapon-free-zones and other proposals for disarmament and arms control: how to advance the agenda for nuclear disarmament.

How to oppose the sidelining of the United Nations by military alliances; responses to Nato's enlargement Eastwards, Nato's Partnership for Peace, moves towards the militarisation of the European Union.

Peace and human rights after the Nice European Council: the crisis in Israel/Palestine; the crisis in Turkey and the problems of the Kurds; the problem of Cyprus; the results of military intervention in the Balkans.
