***** Human Rights Watch Providing Bush with ammo for attack on Iraq

By Heather Cottin

...HRW gives the plight of the Kurds as one reason for indicting the Iraqi leader. The Kurds are a people with a distinct language and culture who live in Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran. Washington has tried to manipulate their struggle for self-determination, using it when and where it is convenient to U.S. geo-strategic interests. -------- In Russia, fwiw, HRW is widely considered a Western propaganda organization (which sounds funny to me, but what the hey -- though they are suspiciously quiet whenever a Chechen kills someone).
