Letter: What now for Iraq?
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.CLINTON and Blair say it is their threat of force which has created the diplomatic agreement and averted (for the moment) their bombing of Iraq. It is surely the widespread opposition to the war by people in America and Britain which has made these overgrown playground bullies back down.
But the bombs are still in their hands. We will not be safe until the sanctions are ended and all the troops and weapons pulled out.
