In Iraq, vigilantes are attacking and murdering gay men.
The London-based Iraqi LGBT organisation is asking you to sign their petition and if you are in London, to consider going to a demonstration on Thursday, April 16, 2009, from 12:00 p.m.–4:00 p.m. at the Home Office Direct Communications Unit, 2 Marsham Street. If you are on Facebook, you can find out more about this event here.
And that last link asks you to sign into Facebook, so it does seem that you have to be a member to view the page.

Post a Comment
We welcome lively and challenging comments. However, please try to stay on topic, be polite and do not use abusive, racist or sexist language, and do not incite your readers to violence or other antisocial behaviour, or your comment will be deleted. This isn't censorship: it's a case of staying within the bounds of decency and having an eye to the law, although we realise the law will be different in different countries.
We do not bar anonymous comments at the moment, but we would prefer that those commenting play fair and use their name or at least a regular nom de plume. It does show a confidence in your convictions. We know, too, that it's easy to use a false name and be effectively anonymous, but, again, we appeal to your sense of good practice. Even a wacky nom de plume is better, since at least readers will come to know that contributor and maybe remember her or his previous comments.
Blatant commercial advertising will be removed.
Comments should not be construed as necessarily the policy or opinion of the Pink Triangle Trust.
