Humanitarian Issues in Post-War Iraq: Statements (Resumed).
10:30 am
Mary Henry (Independent)
I second the motion proposed by Senator Norris. I am glad the Minister of State used the word "occupation". It is difficult to make an appeal under the Geneva Convention concerning the responsibilities of occupying powers unless one admits those forces are in a position of occupation, which is what the invading armies are in Iraq.
