Labor Beat: Iraq Protests the Occupation Sana TV excerpts

Here are two short excerpts from Sana TV (Iraq) coverage showing opposition to the U.S. occupation. First, we see the results of a mosque bombing and comments of observers and relatives of victims: "I am sure these people [who planted the bomb in the mosque]...have been planted among us by the occupation that is playing the main role in the chaos in Iraq." [Some of the audio is choppy in this section. A running sub-title translation is provided.] Then we go to an un-permitted demonstration in Liberty Square in Baghdad on the 7th anniversary of the occupation. Sana TV is produced by Iraq Freedom Congress in Iraq, a progressive, non-sectarian, pro-labor group. Sana TV has frequently been the target of the corrupt authorities but continues to produce reports. Length 11:07. English version provided by Labor Beat. Labor Beat is a CAN TV Community Partner.
