Iran, a victim of state-sponsored terrorism

Kourosh Ziabari | 30-12-2010 15:50 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Anti-racism | Sheffield | World

Bombs detonated in the vehicles of Dr. Shahriari and Prof. Abbasi on November 29
Those who mischievously called Iran a part of the so-called "Axis of Evil" and put its name in their fabricated list of the state sponsors of terrorism - the list from which the name of Saddam Hussein's Baathist regime was removed in 1982 so that the United States and its European stooges could rationalize their unjustified, immoral and insane war against Iran - have blatantly forgotten that Iran has been long one of the guiltless victims of terrorism, sponsored by the United States, Israel, UK and their puppets in the Middle East.

Mysterious "laptop documents". Using fake intelligence to justify war on Iran

Michel Chossudovsky | 27-11-2010 19:37 | Anti-militarism | Anti-racism | Other Press | Sheffield | World

The US stance in the UN Security Council, has in part based on alleged intelligence documents which provide "evidence" of Iran's nuclear weapons program.

A recent article by investigative reporter Gareth Porter confirms unequivocally that the mysterious laptop documents are fake.

We are dealing with a clear case of fake intelligence comparable to that presented by Colin Powell in February 2003 on Iraq's alleged weapons of mass destruction. The fake intelligence presented to the UN Security Council was used as a justification for the March 2003 invasion of Iraq.

Will the US antiwar movement confront Washington's plans to wage a pre-emptive nuclear war against Iran based on fake intelligence?

Corporate Watch | 11-11-2010 01:13 | Anti-racism | Policing | Sheffield

The (we're not fascists, honest guv!) English Defence League (EDL) descended on Leicester on 10th October, 2010, for a day of racist taunts and attacks on anti-fascists and Asian residents of the town. Despite a rout in Bradford in August, the EDL were out in force and a crowd of over a thousand soon proceeded to hurl beer cans, rocks and fireworks at police and counter-demonstrators.

Home Office stop-and-search figures hide evidence of systematic discrimination

IHRC | 28-10-2010 15:38 | Anti-racism | Repression | Social Struggles | Sheffield | World

A stop-and-search operation at the East Ham tube station
Massoud Shadjareh, the Chairman of the Islamic Human Rights Commission, said today that the Home Office’s latest figures on numbers of people stopped and searched under anti-terrorism legislation fail to give the full picture when it comes to Muslim concerns about the discriminatory use of the powers to target Muslims in particular.

Whose cops are more racist, America’s or the Brits'?

Glen Ford | 27-10-2010 22:51 | Analysis | Anti-racism | Repression | Sheffield | World

In any global battle of the racists, the U.S. and Britain are always top contenders. A new study has some putting odds on merrily racist Old England (and Wales) for the honor of white supremacist society in-chief. “The figures would seem to indicate that Blacks in England and Wales are targeted by police with even more ferocity than their counterparts in New York City.” But the Big Apple takes a back seat to no one, when it comes to bigoted police behavior on the streets.

Urgent: Okpara family due for deportation on Monday 25th October

Support Mildred | 20-10-2010 07:37 | Anti-racism | Migration | Sheffield

Mildred Okpara and her three young children have been refused asylum and ordered to return to Nigeria next Monday 25th October. The family are at grave risk from the Nigerian separatist group, MASSOB (the Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra). Mildred's partner was abducted and murdered by this group, who also attacked her baby son. If she is forced to return to Nigeria she is convinced that she and her children will be targeted and killed by MASSOB who continue to commit atrocities in the region. She is also terrified that her father will find her and insist that his granddaughters undergo female genital mutilation, a practice which is widespread amongst the Igbo community of which the family is a member.

Please write to David Blunkett, Theresa May, Nick Clegg and Paul Scriven (details below) to prevent the family's deportation. A sample letter is provided, but please write your own if possible.

The President and I (a *must watch* interview of President Ahmadinejad)

The Saker | 28-09-2010 21:43 | Anti-militarism | Anti-racism | Other Press | Sheffield | World

Soraya Sepahpour-Ulrich interviews President Ahmadinejad
Today I am truly delighted to post a really unique item: a 50min interview of President Ahmadinejad conducted by somebody who actually understands the issues and who wants to discover what this man is really like.

So far, all the interviews given by President Ahmadinejad to US reporters have inevitable resulted in idiotic questions, outright hostility, petty accusations and outright nonsense.

“Iran is not what you think it is”

William Beeman | 25-09-2010 11:03 | Anti-militarism | Anti-racism | Culture | Sheffield | World

Kashan Bazaar in the province of Isfahan
On Thursday Sept. 16, William Beeman visited Grinnell College and gave a lecture entitled “Iran Is Not What You Think It Is.” Beeman is a specialist in Middle East Studies, Japanese Studies, Central Asian Studies, Linguistics and Performance Studies.

He proclaims views on Iran that are contrary to commonly held misconceptions­—although he is a strong critic against Iran’s human rights record. In my interview with him, he shared with me a history of Iranian-American relations.
