Campaign Against Sanctions on Iraq (CASI)

The Campaign Against Sanctions on Iraq (CASI) aims to raise awareness of the effects of sanctions on Iraq, and campaigns on humanitarian grounds for the lifting of non-military sanctions. CASI does not support or have ties to the government of Iraq.

CASI is a registered society at the University of Cambridge, England.

"We are in the process of destroying an entire society. It is as simple and terrifying as that. It is illegal and immoral."
Denis Halliday, former UN Assistant Secretary-General and Humanitarian Coordinator in Iraq, The Independent, October 15, 1998

"The increase in mortality...for children under five years of age...an excess of some 40,000 deaths yearly compared with 1989." - UNICEF, April 1998.
