[Iraqi] state.”</p> <p>“The hand of terrorism once again [targeted] the peaceful Iraqi streets leaving dead and wounded people,” Hezbollah said in a statement. </p> <p>The group added that the US “wants to sow death and devastation in Iraq in order to avenge the bitter defeat that befell it before the Iraqi people and the humiliating withdrawal of its troops from Iraq.” </p> <p>A wave of apparently coordinated bombing and shooting attacks in seven different provinces across Iraq killed at least 37 people and wounded more than 160 on Thursday. <br/>Hezbollah also condemned in another statement the “behavior of US troops–who have insulted bodies of Afghan victims.”  </p> <p>Hezbollah said that “the new pictures showing US soldiers posing with dead bodies of Afghan citizens which were published by an American newspaper, reveal how the US administration and its military tools disregard a human being’s dignity whether he is alive or dead.” </p> <p>Pictures published by the Los Angeles Times on Wednesday showed US soldiers posing with the remains of Taliban insurgents, one of them with a man’s hand draped over his shoulder.</p> </blockquote> <p><a

the ninth anniversary of the US-led invasion against Saddam Hussein.</p> <p>Protesters flooded the centre of the southern port city of Basra for the rally, with demonstrators waving Iraqi flags and portraits of the anti-US Shiite cleric and his father, Grand Ayatollah Mohammed Mohammed Sadiq al-Sadr, killed in 1999 by assailants thought to have been sent by Saddam.</p> <p>The demonstration came just days before Iraq is due to host an Arab League summit, the first meeting of the 22-nation body since Saddam’s 1990 invasion of neighbouring Kuwait.</p> <p>Reading remarks composed by Sadr, currently in Iran, Sadrist religious leader Sheikh Assad al-Nassari told the crowd: "We cannot rest when there is injustice against us."</p> <p>"Demand your rights, I will support you, and with our unity we will be strong. You must fight for a stable nation."</p> <p>Two officers in the police and army in Basra put the number of protesters at one million, while Sadrist officials claimed 1.5 million attended. An AFP journalist put the number of protesters at several hundred thousand.</p> <p>Demonstrators, many of whom came from different provinces to take part in what was dubbed the "Day to Support Oppressed Iraqis", shouted: "Yes to rights! Yes to humanity! No to injustice! No to poverty! No to corruption!"</p> </p></div> <p> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120504075729/http://gorillasguides.com/2012/03/19/sadrists-flood-basra-in-million-strong-demo/#more-14057" class="more-link">» أقرأ التفاصيل .. | Read the rest of this entry »</a></p> </div> </div> <hr/> <div class="post clearfix" id="post-14050"> <div class="postmetadata"><span class="comments"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120504075729/http://gorillasguides.com/2012/03/11/iraqi-refugees-return-home-from-syria-middle-east-al-jazeera-english/#respond" title="Comment on Iraqi refugees return home from Syria – Middle East – Al Jazeera English">No Comments</a></span> Posted on March 11th, 2012 by Harith</div> <h3><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120504075729/http://gorillasguides.com/2012/03/11/iraqi-refugees-return-home-from-syria-middle-east-al-jazeera-english/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to Iraqi refugees return home from Syria – Middle East – Al Jazeera English">Iraqi refugees return home from Syria – Middle East – Al Jazeera English</a></h3> <p class="postmetadata">Category: <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120504075729/http://gorillasguides.com/category/english-articles/" title="View all posts in English Language Articles" rel="category tag">English Language Articles</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120504075729/http://gorillasguides.com/category/video-reports/" title="View all posts in Video Reports" rel="category tag">Video Reports</a>, Tags: <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120504075729/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/al-jazeera-english/" rel="tag">al jazeera english</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120504075729/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/refugee-resettlement/" rel="tag">refugee resettlement</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120504075729/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/returned-refugees/" rel="tag">Returned Refugees</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120504075729/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/returnees/" rel="tag">returnees</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120504075729/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/syria/" rel="tag">Syria</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120504075729/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/syrian-unrest-and-protests/" rel="tag">Syrian unrest and protests</a></p> <div class="entry" dir="rtl" align="right"> <p><iframe height="315" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120504075729if_/http://www.youtube.com/embed/JV-dAvaddKs" frameborder="0" width="560" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe> <div style="text-align: left; unicode-bidi: bidi-override; direction: ltr"> <blockquote> <p>As the uprising against the rule of Bashar al-Assad in Syria rages on, thousands of Iraqis who fled their own country are now starting to return home.</p> <p>During the worst of the violence caused by the US-led war in Iraq, almost a million Iraqis crossed over to Syria, some of them registering with the UN refugee agency in the hope of being resettled.</p> <p>Al Jazeera’s Jane Arraf reports from Baghdad on how many are now giving up that dream.</p> </blockquote> <p><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120504075729/http://www.aljazeera.com/video/middleeast/2012/03/2012311112655308209.html" class="external" target="_blank">Iraqi refugees return home from Syria – Middle East – Al Jazeera English</a></p> </p></div> </div> </div> <hr/> <div class="post clearfix" id="post-14043"> <div class="postmetadata"><span class="comments"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120504075729/http://gorillasguides.com/2012/03/06/iraq-women-in-iraq-fact-sheet-reliefweb/#respond" title="Comment on Iraq: Women in Iraq Fact Sheet | ReliefWeb">No Comments</a></span> Posted on March 6th, 2012 by Khaled</div> <h3><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120504075729/http://gorillasguides.com/2012/03/06/iraq-women-in-iraq-fact-sheet-reliefweb/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to Iraq: Women in Iraq Fact Sheet | ReliefWeb">Iraq: Women in Iraq Fact Sheet | ReliefWeb</a></h3> <p class="postmetadata">Category: <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120504075729/http://gorillasguides.com/category/english-articles/" title="View all posts in English Language Articles" rel="category tag">English Language Articles</a>, Tags: <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120504075729/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/women-discrimination-against/" rel="tag">Women - discrimination against</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120504075729/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/women-poverty-of/" rel="tag">women - poverty of</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120504075729/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/women-social-position-of/" rel="tag">Women -social position of</a></p> <div class="entry" dir="rtl" align="right"> <div style="text-align: left; unicode-bidi: bidi-override; direction: ltr"> <blockquote> <p>Years of dictatorship, international sanctions, and armed conflict have affected Iraq’s social fabric and contributed to a deterioration in the lives of Iraqi women.

Sprinkler irrigation would need 4-6 years to complete, but could save 3.6 billion cubic metres of water a year, said Deputy Agriculture Minister Riadh Al-Qaisi. <br/>  <br/>Since 2003, Iraq has tried to reach agreement with Turkey, Syria and Iran over water allocations but nothing has been agreed. The three countries argue that their increasing need for water due to drought makes it impossible to reach an agreement, and they urge Iraq to adopt modern irrigation techniques, instead. <br/>  <br/>In December, the Iraqi Cabinet authorized the minister of foreign affairs to lead negotiations with Turkey and Syria on a water-sharing agreement, but so far no meetings have been held, according to Water Resources Ministry spokesman Ali Hashim; he mentioned that on 20 February Iraq signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understating with Iran to activate already existing joint committees on water issues. “We hope this will lead to agreements in the future,” he said. The minister was also planning a visit to Turkey “very soon”.</p> <h3>Dam construction</h3> <p>“What is clear now is that water resources in Iraq mainly from the Tigris and Euphrates rivers are continually decreasing due to huge dams being constructed in Turkey and Syria,” said the Planning Ministry’s Hassoun. </p> <p> <a
