Maj. Gen. Geoffrey Miller, the man sent to clean up Iraq's U.S. Army-run prisons, today announced that the number of detainees held at the infamous Abu Ghraib prison will be reduced by more than half. And in a bid to counter the growing scandal, he's already banned the use of hoods to cover the heads of detainees during transport; instead "pressure bandages" or goggles will be used to cover prisoners' eyes. advertisement

Their inaction constitutes a gross violation of the 1954 Hague Convention on the protection of artistic treasures in wartime, adopted in response to the Nazi looting of occupied Europe during World War II. At least 80 percent of the 170,000 separate items stored at the National Museum of Antiquities in Baghdad were stolen or destroyed during the looting rampage that followed the US military occupation of Baghdad. The museum was the greatest single storehouse of materials from the civilizations of ancient Mesopotamia, including Sumeria, Akkadia, Babylonia, Assyria and Chaldea. It also held artifacts from Persia, Ancient Greece, the Roman Empire and various Arab dynasties. Ironically, the only hope for the survival of some archaeological treasures is that they might have been removed from the museum before the war, to be displayed in one or another of the private residences of Saddam Hussein and his family. A large selection of artifacts made of gold was stored for safekeeping at the Iraqi Central Bank, but that facility was looted and burned as well.

In August 1990 Iraq seized Kuwait, but was expelled by US-led, UN coalition forces during January-February 1991. The victors did not occupy Iraq, however, thus allowing the regime to stay in control. Following Kuwait's liberation, the UN Security Council (UNSC) required Iraq to scrap all weapons of mass destruction and long-range missiles and to allow UN verification inspections. UN trade sanctions remain in effect due to incomplete Iraqi compliance with relevant UNSC resolutions.

    Extractions: Other Archaeological Sites ... Ad Infinitum Hassuna Culture (6000 BC - 5250 BC) By around 6000 BC people had moved into the foothills (piedmont) of northernmost Mesopotamia where there was enough rainfall to allow for "dry" agriculture in some places. These were the first farmers in northernmost Mesopotamia ( Assyria ). They made Hassuna style pottery (cream slip with reddish paint in linear designs). Hassuna people lived in small villages or hamlets ranging from 2 to 8 acres. Even the largest Hassuna sites were smaller than PPNA Jericho had been 1000 years before and much smaller than Çatal Hüyük , which was still occupied in Anatolia . Probably few if any Hassuna villages exceeded 500 people ...... Read the Hassuna Outline Here Reproduced With Permission of Dr. Bruce Owen at Sonoma State University and his Class Anthropology 341 At Tell Hassuna, south of Mosul , adobe dwellings built around open central courts with fine painted pottery replace earlier levels with crude pottery. Hand axes, sickles, grinding stones, bins, baking ovens and numerous bones of domesticated animals reflect settled agricultural life. Female figurines have been related to worship and jar burials within which food was placed related to belief in afterlife. The relationship of Hassuna pottery to that of Jericho suggests that village culture was becoming widespread ......

    Extractions: Other Archaeological Sites ... Ad Infinitum Pre-Historic Samarran Culture (5500 - 4800 BC) Samarra is an Islamic town of the second half of the first millennium AD on the Tigris River just north of Baghdad as well as the name of a pre-historic culture ..... The Samarran Culture dated back to 5500 - 4800 BC. The finding of the first significant irrigation at Samarra suggests that there was more investment in the land as far as farming for crops. The setting up of irrigation also showed that the city was a very permanent settlement and that the settlement prospered as a result of the advances that they made ..... Traces were found of pre-historic artifacts: fine painted pottery decorated in dark colored backgrounds with figures of animals - birds - people and complicated looking geometric designs. This type of pottery was first recognized at Samarra but at first was thought to be a southern variant of the Hassunan Culture ; it is now associated mainly with the site of Tell Sawwan It now seems that the Samarran is partly contemporary with the Hassunan but started a bit later and continued somewhat longer with a more southerly focus. It is this Samarran colonization of the

58. Iraq War Culture
    iraq War culture. Joe Lockard Bad Subjects, Issue 63, April 2003. iraq War cultureis a culture that promotes the objectivity of a consensus of power.

    Extractions: Iraq War Culture Joe Lockard Bad Subjects , Issue # 63, April 2003 The US political landscape of the Iraq War is characterized by massive cutbacks in social expenditures, together with tax structures that underwrite capital accumulation by a narrow alliance of social allies. Corporate, military and government leadership have become an integrated, interlocking circle, one that promotes an ideological culture of the nation-state as the fundamental source of progress and power to consume. Yet this is a crisis-bound society in need of affirmations of its superiority. Since the inauguration of the Bush administration, the US economy has lost 2.1 million jobs. The US educational system is in the middle of financial crises generated by astonishing military expenditures, corporate welfare, and tax giveaways to the rich. The war occasions more than the war; it is a beginning of progressive regimentalization. It supplies rationales of repression, demands for the subordination of counter-argument, delimitations between permissible speech and silence that knows its place. War culture is speech in its own right, one that functions in rhetoric of demand and conquest. Yet the geist of attempted homogenization of opinion is unworkable home-front psy-ops, one that will fail because mass political opinion is chaotic in nature and hysterias are transitory phenomena. War culture, in all its efforts to heroicize and memorialize the dead, embraces state violence as the apogee of citizenship. Public speech responds to the demands of citizen-sacrifice.

59. Small Arms Are Continuing Threat In Iraq

    Extractions: Small Arms are Continuing Threat in Iraq March 24, 2003 View Standard Version As bombs fall on Iraq, the threat of a chemical, biological or nuclear attack remains a real threat to U.S. and coalition forces. But, with the hope that there is no attack using weapons of mass destruction, the majority of U.S. casualties in this war will be from small arms and light weapons. Moreover, the real threat to the rebuilding of Iraq may be these weapons as well. According to media reports, Iraq is one of the most heavily armed countries in the world. It is believed that there are enough guns in Iraq for at last every person in Iraq to possess one, a level similar to gun ownership in clans in Yemen and Somalia, as well as in the United States. With a population of approximately 24 million, that means there could be millions of small arms in the hands of civilians. The gun culture is pervasive in Iraq. There is even an Iraqi saying, "Give everything to your friend, except your car, your wife, and your gun." Small arms and light weapons are widely available in Iraq, both on the legal and black markets. These weapons are not necessarily new, but they are still deadly. In some arms bazaars throughout Iraq, weapons leftover from the end of Ottoman Empire in 1918 and World War II are also still available. More modern weapons are also available, especially in the illicit arms markets, with weapons for sale from the United States, Turkey Iran, and other supporters of the Kurds. Beyond simply guns, Iraqis civilians also have access to other light weapons, such as rocket-propelled grenades, mortars, and bombs through the black market, arms bazaars, and from government sources.

    Extractions: Tuesday, May 4, 2004; Page A25 Oh? Who? Appearing Friday in the Rose Garden with Canada's prime minister, President Bush was answering a reporter's question about Canada's role in Iraq when suddenly he swerved into this extraneous thought: "There's a lot of people in the world who don't believe that people whose skin color may not be the same as ours can be free and self-govern. I reject that. I reject that strongly. I believe that people who practice the Muslim faith can self-govern. I believe that people whose skins aren't necessarily are a different color than white can self-govern." What does such careless talk say about the mind of this administration? Note that the clearly implied antecedent of the pronoun "ours" is "Americans." So the president seemed to be saying that white is, and brown is not, the color of Americans' skin. He does not mean that. But that is the sort of swamp one wanders into when trying to deflect doubts about policy by caricaturing and discrediting the doubters. Scott McClellan, the president's press secretary, later said the president meant only that "there are some in the world that think that some people can't be free" or "can't live in freedom." The president meant that "some Middle Eastern countries that the people in those Middle Eastern countries cannot be free."
