Oil Workers Union in Iraq Condemns Anti-Union Repression

category international | worker & community struggles and protests | other press author Wednesday August 20, 2008 16:21author by pat c Report this post to the editors

The great US liberators are facillitating union busting in Iraq. Military action is being used as a cover to attack workers rights. Full text at link.

The administrations of some oil departments backed by the ministry of oil have clearly infringed on our rights.In fact, they have done more than that by excluding, relocating and issuing warrants for union leaders who defended the rights and entitlements of workers.

Exploiting the recent military operation in Basra, the management of the Iraqi oil tankers company has gone too far in infringing on the rights of its members in the company.The reason behind this is the workers' demand to be compensated as other workers in the rest of the oil sector's companies.

"In his final months, Bush should clarify to the American people just why Iran’s leaders represent a major threat to the world. He should call out the Iranian regime for its policy of governing by fear — the public hangings, stonings and intimidation of political dissidents, religious minorities, trade unionists and other free thinkers. Such actions are meant to frighten people into silence, and the president is not one to be silenced."
