To the victors, the spoils: Bush's colonialism will only deepen
resistance

Iraq remains a country of unbearable suffering, the sort that only
soldiers and administrators acting on behalf of states and governments
are capable of inflicting on their fellow humans. It is the first
country where we can begin to study the impact of a 21st-century
colonisation. This takes place in an international context of
globalisation and neo-liberal hegemony. If the economy at home is
determined by the primacy of consumption, speculation as the main hub
of economic activity and no inviolate domains of public provision,
only a crazed utopian could imagine that a colonised Iraq would be any
different.
