Death squads
In the main article on Iraq, we pointed out that an important part of the alleged ?civil war? that is underway in the country is actually just a way of concealing the death squadron of the Badr Brigade conducted from the Home Ministry itself by the Shii party CSRI (Superior Council of Islamic evolution) and encouraged by the American John Negroponte, who had also organised them in El Salvador in 1980s.
What follows is a letter from the International Islamic Association for Human Rights in
?(?) The abuse committed against the Iraqi people (both Sunni and Shii) and especially against the Sunni Arabs by the militias of the Badr Brigade, the Iraqi Home Minister (Beyan Jaber Sulak) and the chief of the Badr Militia (Hadi Al Ameri) and his gang constitute absolute genocide, constitute war crimes and crimes against manhood.

As the Secretary General of Amnesty International, Irene Khan, has pointed out, ?The American administration has shown absolute scorn for the Convention of
