The brain-drain

Iraqi academics are being targeted. This international petition (supported by many of the world's leading thinkers) aims to bring the issue to wide attention.

Robert Fisk wrote on this disturbing development in July 2004:

"Other university staff suspect that there is a campaign to strip Iraq of its academics, to complete the destruction of Iraq's cultural identity which began with the destruction of the Baghdad Koranic library, the national archives and the looting of the archaeological museum when the American army entered Baghdad."
