Keivn Maguire reports on Hadi Never Died in the Daily Mirror
19,July 2006
IRAQI trade union leader Hadi Saleh was tortured and killed by assassins said to be loyal to Saddam Hussein.
A book commemorating efforts to rebuild unions in Iraq will be launched today in the Commons by his widow and TUC general secretary Brendan Barber.
The war is a disaster, but Hadi’s death reminds us militants are killing countrymen who are working for a fairer Iraq.
The UK and US can’t avoid responsibility. The TUC was all over the place on the war, but deserves praise for trying to help win peace.
