On Iraq and humiliation by Dakshinamoorthi Raja Ganesan

Dear Dr. Evelin

Greetings from India.
...
An urgent matter I want to place before our forum is whether we are going to respond to the goings-on in Iraq and if so what shape it must take? Even for research purposes this is an appropriate moment to go to the field and document the happenings as objectively and accurately as possible, as the memory of the happenings will be fresh in the minds of both the perpetrators and the victims? More than that we can ask both the parties (some may disagree that we may not get appropriate responses from the side of the perpetrators)about what best can be done to prevent the recurrence of such extensive humiliation?

With warm regards
Very sincerely yours
D. Raja Ganesan

Dear Dakshinamoorthi Raja Ganesan,

You will be pleased to know that I have been documenting grass0root humiliation of the Iraqi people for a year, and that I am planning to return to Iraq shortly to meet with former detainees at Abu Ghorayeb.

I am also currently writing on the subject.

Best regards,

Victoria Fontan
