Gabriele Zamparini Exposes HUGE Media Anti-Arab Anti-Semitic Iraqi Holocaust Denial

by Dr Gideon Polya - October 8, 2007

I greatly appreciate the humanitarian persistence of UK journalist Gabriele Zamparini (e.g. see “The Cat’s Blog: http://www.thecatsdream.com/blog/2007/10/action-alert-why-is-antiwarcom-hiding.htm ) in exposing the refusal of the Iraqi Holocaust-ignoring and now Iraqi Holocaust-denying Anti-war.com and Iraq Body Count to publish the authoritative estimates of about 1 million post-invasion excess deaths in Occupied Iraq, these persons relying instead on notoriously under-estimating “news report tallies” indicating (currently) 75,000-81,000 violent Iraqi deaths (see Iraq Body Count: http://www.iraqbodycount.org/ and Anti-war.com: http://antiwar.com/casualties/ ) .

This is what top US epidemiologists, Professor Gilbert Burnham MD (Professor of International Health at the World’s top Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health) and Professor Les Roberts (Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health) have to say about this (see: http://www.countercurrents.org/burnham230907.htm ), QUOTE: “News report tallies [i.e. Iraq Body Count and thence Antiwar.com] suggest some 75,000 Iraqis have died since the US-led invasion. A study of 13 war affected countries presented at a recent Harvard conference found over 80% of violent deaths in conflicts go unreported by the press and governments... There are now two polls and three scientific surveys all suggesting the official figures and media-based estimates in Iraq have missed 70-95% of all deaths. The evidence suggests that the extent of under-reporting by the media is only increasing with time. Being forthright about the human cost of the war, perhaps over a million deaths to date, is in our long-term interests.”

As compared to the roughly 80,000 violent deaths asserted by Anti-war.com and Iraq Body Count, below are 7 authoritative estimates from 6 authoritative, independent data sets indicating about 1.5-2.0 million post-invasion Occupied Iraq excess deaths (avoidable deaths, deaths that should not have happened) including 0.7-0.8 million non-violent deaths due to deprivation (despite horrendous endless war conditions and over 4 million Iraqi refugees, and in gross violation of the Geneva Convention, the war criminal US Coalition only permits a total annual per capita Occupied Iraq medical expenditure of $135 as compared to $2,560 (UK), $3,123 (Australia) and $6,096 (the US); WHO data: http://www.who.int/countries/irq/en/ ) (see: “Iraq: Genocide by all Definition. Bush’s Iraq War. 2 million Iraqi excess deaths”: http://mwcnews.net/content/view/17066/42/ ).

As of September 2007, excess deaths (avoidable deaths, deaths that should not have happened) in post-invasion Iraq total:

(1) 0.7 million non-violent excess deaths (from conservatively UNDER-estimated UN Population Division data: http://esa.un.org/unpp/ );

(2) 0.8 million non-violent excess deaths (from estimating post-invasion under-5 infant deaths from UNICEF (http://www.unicef.org/infobycountry/iraq.html ) and dividing by 0.7) (see “Layperson’s Guide to Counting Iraq Deaths”: http://mwcnews.net/content/view/5872/26/ );

(3) 1.0 million excess deaths (using data from The Lancet published in 2004; see: http://www.jhsph.edu/refugee/research/iraq/sdarticle.pdf );

(4) 1.0 million excess deaths (including 0.8 million violent deaths; using data from The Lancet, published in 2006; for references see: http://www.thelancet.com/webfiles/images/journals/lancet/s0140673606694919.pdf );

(5) 1.1 million excess deaths (including 0.8 million violent deaths; from using data published in The Lancet in 2006 and using Iraq’s impoverished but peaceful neighbors Syria and Jordan for a comparative mortality baseline);

(6) 1.2 million violent excess deaths (from the UK ORB survey: http://www.opinion.co.uk/Newsroom_details.aspx?NewsId=78 ); and

(7) this totaling 1.5 million – 2.0 million violent plus non-violent post-invasion excess deaths in Occupied Iraq (see: http://mwcnews.net/content/view/17066/42/ ) .

Laypersons and scientists alike will have to decide who to believe, 1.5 million -2.0 million million post-invasion violent and non-violent excess deaths (according to the data from world’s top medical epidemiologists, the UN Population Division, the United nations Children’s Fund, the World Health Organization and the top UK polling and market analysis company ORB) VERSUS 75,000-81,000 violent deaths (as reported Iraq Body Count, Anti-war.com and lying, racist, war-mongering, holocaust-ignoring and holocaust-denying extreme right-wing, Bush-ite mainstream media and politicians).

Of course the carnage is even worse than this. It is estimated that the total excess deaths in the Bush I and Bush II Asian Wars (in Occupied Iraq and Occupied Afghanistan and including the US-backed Israeli wars and occupations in Lebanon, Syria and Palestine in the last several decades) amount to 8 million (see: “United State Terrorism. 8 million Deaths & media Holocaust Denial”: http://mwcnews.net/content/view/17139/42/ ).

The US Alliance Occupier countries are STILL involved in both active genocide and passive genocide in the Occupied Palestinian, Iraqi and Afghan Territories - see the recently published “Lies, Deep Fries & Statistics” (editor. Robyn Williams, ABC Books, Sydney 2007: http://shop.abc.net.au/browse/product.asp?productid=164365 ; and especially “Australian Complicity in Iraq Mass Mortality” by Dr Gideon Polya, also found at: http://www.abc.net.au/rn/science/ockham/stories/s1445960.htm ) and “Body Count. Global avoidable mortality since 1950” (G.M. Polya, Melbourne, 2007): http://globalbodycount.blogspot.com/ and http://mwcnews.net/content/view/1375/247/ ).

The Bush Asian Holocaust death toll of 8 million exceeds that of the Jewish Holocaust, the WW2 Nazi German-inflicted Jewish Genocide (6 million deaths, 5 million murdered and 1 million dying from deprivation) and that of the largely un-reported, “forgotten”, man-made, British-inflicted Bengali Holocaust (Bengal Famine, Bengali Genocide) of World War 2 British India (4 million excess deaths) (see: (see “Global avoidable mortality”: http://globalavoidablemortality.blogspot.com/ ; “Jane Austen and the Black Hole of British History” (G.M. Polya, Melbourne, 1998): http://janeaustenand.blogspot.com/ and “Body Count”: http://globalbodycount.blogspot.com/ ; Mason, C. (2000), A Short History of Asia. Stone Age to 2000AD (Macmillan, London); Gilbert, M. (1969), Jewish History Atlas (Weidenfeld & Nicolson, London); Gilbert, M. (1982), Atlas of the Holocaust (Michael Joseph, London).

There are 300 million Arab Semites in the World and a total of 1.5 billion Muslims whose core culture is Semitic-origin Islam. The Palestinians, Lebanese, Syrians , Iraqis and Afghans subject to war and occupation by US state terrorism (USST), US-Israeli state terrorism (USIST) and Israeli State Terrorism (IST) in the Bush Wars are ethnically and /or culturally SEMITIC.

Those denying the World War 2 Jewish Holocaust (6 million victims, including 1 million deaths from deprivation) are reasonably accused of anti-Jewish anti-Semitic Holocaust that is punished by 10 years in prison in Austria and lengthy custodial sentences in some other European countries. Steadfast Mainstream media and politician IGNORING of authoritative estimates of horrendous excess deaths in the Iraqi Holocaust (3.9 million excess deaths since 1990, 2 million excess deaths since 2003) can be reasonably described as anti-Arab anti-Semitic Holocaust Denial.

We are obliged to inform everyone we can of these horrendous abuses of Humanity.
