Mark Taliano (Canadian writer, activist, and retired teacher) on the destruction of Mosul and the ongoing Iraqi Holocaust (2017): “The “liberation” of Mosul, Iraq, needs to be understood within a context of historical and present-day facts.The first fact is that the West is committing a holocaust in Iraq which began well in advance of the illegal Anglo-American invasion in 2003. Dr. Gideon Polya explains that “holocaust is the destruction of a large number of people and 9 million Iraqi deaths from Anglo-American violence or violently-imposed deprivation [since 1914] certainly constitutes an Iraqi Holocaust.”[1]. The second fact is that the terrorists occupying Mosul, Iraq (and Syria) are the West’s strategic assets/proxies. They help to commit and perpetuate the holocaust. The end result, therefore, is not the liberation of Mosul, but rather the destruction of Mosul for the perceived benefit of criminal, genocidal, imperial warmongers who hide their crimes beneath the Big Lies of the “War on Terror” and “Humanitarian Invasions”. The warmongers successfully de-populated and destroyed Iraq’s second largest city. The terrorists (the supposed enemies) — all armed and supported by the West [2]—and the terror bombing [3], including the use of illegal, weaponized white phosphorus munitions, and carpet bombing – achieved their criminal objectives” (Mark Taliano, “US-NATO holocaust in Iraq”, Global Research, 12 July 2017: https://www.globalresearch.ca/us-nato-holocaust-in-iraq-the-depopulation-and-destruction-of-mosul/5598793 ).
