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.
