Dear Friends,
On behalf of the Kuala Lumpur Foundation To Criminalise War, I am pleased to inform you that we are organizing a war crimes Commission and Tribunal on 30th and 31st October, 2009. The event will be held at the Tun Dr Ismail Hall, Putra World Trade Centre in Kuala Lumpur. The Commission will hear testimonies by the war victims of war crimes committed in Iraq since the US-led invasion in 2003. The Tribunal will hear and decide on the application for an advisory opinion filed by the Kuala Lumpur War Crimes Commission to determine if a Head of State or Government can unilaterally exempt itself from complying with any provisions of any International Treaties/Conventions duly ratified by the State without first abrogating the relevant treaty/convention.
The Commission and Tribunal will be preceded and coincide with a conference organised by the Perdana Global Peace Organisation (PGPO), themed “Criminalise War” from 28th up to 31st October 2009. The conference will be attended by the Chairman of PGPO and former Prime Minister, YABhg Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad who will also deliver the keynote address. During the conference, there will also a war crimes exhibition highlighting the destruction caused by the invasion in Iraq, including instruments of torture used by the occupying military forces there.
The Commission and Tribunal are open to public at no charge, while the entrance fee for the exhibition is on a donation basis. Seats are available on a first come first served basis.
Please email your details to joana.y.chan@zicorporate.com.my or khairul.bariah@zicorporate.com.my before October 21, 2009 if you would like to attend the Commission and Tribunal. You may also contact Joana Chan or Khairul Bariah at 03 2094 0999 if you have any queries.
We look forward to see you there.

MAKE WAR A CRIME, THE LEAST WE COULD DO

KP,
I'm happy to know you are taking an active part in the "War Crimes Commission and Tribunal 2009". It deserves support and I wish you all success.
History is full of wars. It's endless. Human beings never learn. This thing called politics is the culprit. Greed for power locally, nationally and internationally is the prime motivating factor.
They call it the protection of national integrity, sovereignty and what have you. But basically it's bloody greed for power.
Look at bloody George W Bush and Iraq. Bush was being made use of by the bastardly Zionist Jews in US and Israel. There is in the US the "Jewish Lobby" with "unmatched power", according to two US Professors (one from Harvard) who wrote about it some time ago. They have been promoting the Zionist Israeli regime's interests. The Zionists want to annihilate any Muslim country near Israel that smells anything like having "Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD)"
The damn Zionists egged on the stupid Bush to bomb Iraq who they "quietly propagandised" as having nuclear and poisonous gas making facilities. The Iraqi invasion came and went. Not a bloody iota of truth. But the huge damage was done. Israel became stronger in the eyes of the world. They became arrogant and more daring in taking Palestinian land by building more Israeli settlements in the occupied territories.
In the process, all sorts of crimes against humanity were committed. Just as there are all sorts of crimes done by the Israeli Zionists against the Arabs and the Palestinians in the declared and undeclared wars. This kind of blokes must be discouraged if not stopped. I believe the War Crimes Commission and Tribunal is in that direction and it deserves all the support.
Aku.
