Dear Readers,

Opinions expressed in various sections are the sole responsibility of their authors and they may not represent Al-Jazeerah's. In particular, Al-Jazeerah may not agree, approve, condone, or acquiesce any of the published photos, cartoons, news articles, and opinion articles.

These materials represent reactions of authors  to American foreign policy in the Middle East, Israeli occupation policies and practices in occupied Palestine, or policies and practices of Arab governments and Arab rulers.

The main objective is to enable English readers all over the world, particularly in the US and Israel, to know about the impact of the policies of these governments on Arabs and Muslims.

When people are more aware of the consequences of policies of their governments, cross-cultural understanding increases, which leads to a more just and peaceful world ... That is the essence of the Al-Jazeerah.info Mission.

The Blair government wants Greenstock to remove the quotations of talks between him and each of Blair and Straw, which implicate both of them in the illegality and politics of the invasion and the occupation of Iraq. Greenstock also scolded Bremer and Condi Rice for their way of handling Iraqi affairs. The book was supposed to be published by Random House. Now, it'll be published by a British newspaper.
