Statement from Mobilization Against War & Occupation - MAWO
October 24, 2014

Since
 the beginning of June 2014, the open wounds of Iraq caused by 
sanctions, wars and occupations have grown deeper. This is when the 
Islamic State in Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS, also known as ISIL) began an 
onslaught against Iraq, establishing control of important border 
crossings, cities and territories in Iraq through terrorist actions 
directed against Iraqi civilians. As of June 29, ISIS had taken control 
of Iraq's second largest city, Mosul, and declared a “Caliphate” state 
in the areas under their control in Northern Iraq in opposition to the 
Iraqi state. Fighting between ISIS and the Iraqi military forces 
continues, imposing more violence and destruction on the people of Iraq 
who are already facing the daily reality of a country devastated by over
 11 years of U.S.-led war and occupation.
