Western officials: The American invasion of Iraq is a flagrant terrorist crime
“An act of terrorism and a major crime”, this is what UN experts and Western military officials labeled the US invasion of Iraq, stressing that the United States, through its war in 2003, disregarded all international norms and laws.
UN officials and other military personnel stressed, in the context of an article published by the Canadian “Global Research” website, that the invasion of Iraq was an indiscriminate military action and a flagrant terrorist crime that shows the disregard of the United States and its partner Britain for international law.
Dennis Halliday, the former United Nations Humanitarian Coordinator in Iraq, who resigned in 1998 after 34 years of work with the international organization after the Security Council refused to lift coercive measures on Iraq, Scott Ritter the former US weapons inspector in Iraq and Marjorie Kohn the American expert in legal affairs were among the western officials.
Officials point out that this invasion was based on a series of lies and media manipulation, with the result that hundreds of thousands of innocent people died and thousands more were disfigured because of internationally banned substances used by US forces against defenseless civilians and children.
The officials acknowledged that the American and British forces used all forms of torture in their crimes against the Iraqis and hit them with cluster bombs, and bombed with depleted uranium shells the cities of Amarah, Baghdad, Basra, Fallujah and Karbala to the point where the radioactive situation in the city of Fallujah became worse than it was in Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan.
