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."
