Native peoples condemn war

Representatives of the Indigenous Peoples of the Americas gathered in Ottawa, Canada, issued a statement March 25 condemning "the genocidal American invasion against the Iraqi people."

Calling the war "a crime against humanity" that "violates international law as well as human and legal rights," the statement said it "lacks any kind of legitimacy and cannot be justified as it violates all declarations to live in peace. It violates the self-determination and sovereignty of peoples and the consensus reached by most states represented in the United Nations. We encourage all the peoples of the world to maintain their unity and to strengthen their mobilization against this injustice, to show their love for peace, fraternity and intercultural dialogue."
