"Mr President, how many more innocent victims will be added to those who have already fallen? I am thinking in particular of those young Kurdish children, laughing and full of life, like the ones we met at the camp at Magmur, just south of the 36th parallel, only a few weeks ago.
With the agreement of the Security Council this war would still have been illegitimate but now it is both illegal and illegitimate. It is also, unfortunately, barbaric. The power of the bombs dropped by the Americans and the British on that unfortunate country has doubtless already exceeded that of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. President Bush has spoken of a crusade. This one will no doubt meet the same fate as the last one. I salute the courageous resistance of the Iraqi people. I ask my Kurdish friends not to place too much trust in American promises. They know what those promises are worth. I hope that one day those who are responsible for this war – Bush, Aznar and Blair – will have to answer for their actions before an international court.
Finally, let me quote from the Basque language journal
a journal which the high-handedness of a judge and of the Spanish Minister for Internal Affairs has condemned to silence, ‘The people’s struggle for freedom does not recognise national boundaries’."@en1
