	U.S. Troops Mistreat Elder Iraqi woman
		The envoy, legislator Ann Clwyd, said she had investigated the claims of the woman in her 70s and believed they were true.
		Clwyd, 67, is a veteran politician of the governing Labour Party and a strong Blair supporter who regularly visits Iraq and reports back on issues such as human rights, the delivery of food and medical supplies to Iraqis, and Iraq's Kurdish minority.
		Clwyd said the Iraqi woman was arrested in Iraq in July and accused of having links to a former member of Saddam Hussein's regime — a charge she denied.

	The Spectator.co.uk
		Clwyd described an Iraqi’s claims that male prisoners were dropped into a machine ‘designed for shredding plastic’, before their minced remains were ‘placed in plastic bags’ so they could later be used as ‘fish food’.
		Two days after Clwyd’s article was published, the Australian Prime Minister John Howard addressed his nation to explain why he was sending troops to support the coalition in Iraq; he talked of the Baathists’ many crimes, including the ‘human-shredding machine’ that was used ‘as a vehicle for putting to death critics of Saddam Hussein’.
		Clwyd insists that corroboration of the shredder story came three months after her first Times article, when she was shown a dossier by a reporter from Fox TV.

		Ann Clwyd said if the scandal of the missing prisoners had been taken more seriously from the start by the US, it could have helped prevent the abuse of detainees in their jails.
		She had, according to Clwyd who interviewed her afterwards, been abused in custody: as a Muslim, the shame was such that she would not be identified.
		Clwyd admitted she did not know how many other similar cases there could be among those arrested on suspicion of being an insurgent or a security threat.

		The victory of left-winger Mr Lloyd - a year after Mrs Clwyd pipped him by a similar margin in the last election to the post - was seen in Westminster as a setback for Mr Blair and his expected successor Gordon Brown.
		Mrs Clwyd insisted she had 'accurately portrayed' the views of Labour MPs in discussions with the party leadership.

	Re: Ann Clwyd comes to town
		You said that Ann Clwyd should not be speaking about International Criminal Court matters until she is cleared of wrongdoing herself.
		You make a good point that at present Ann has not been able to find the money to sue (although there is a fund to help Labour MPs sue, and the leading libel law firm in London is moving towards offering a "no win no fee" scheme).
		Ann cannot possibly talk properly about matters under investigation, if indeed they are, and it is inappropriate to demand that fiunds be sequestrated without evidence of wrongdoing.

	UK Indymedia - Ann Clwyd: The Vicar of Cynon Valley
		Clwyd, in a curious way, makes the war on Iraq seem the result of desperate appeals by Indict, the commission she headed to try and get Saddam Hussein and his band of thugs nailed in an international court of human rights, in absentia.
		Clwyd leaves a lot to implication but if we leave that aside, the structure of her argument is obvious enough.
		Presumably Clwyd would allow that there are important questions of agency, of motive, of means and method, and of the alternatives.

		Ann Clwyd spoke about the criminal case against Saddam Hussein and the work of INDICT, a non-governmental organization founded in 1997 to bring war criminals to justice.
		Clwyd noted that INDICT can not overtly publicize all that it is doing, nor would it state when the indictments will be brought forth in the international community.
		Secondly, Clwyd addressed the policy of sanctions on Iraq, stating that "it is Saddam Hussein, himself, that is responsible for the situation of his own people." Additionally, Clwyd stated that despite all of the criticisms, one sanction that would make it impossible for Saddam Hussein or other regime members to travel would be international indictments.

		Ann Clwyd said that her meeting with Leyla Zana, which lasted for two-and-a-half hours, was arranged after lengthy negotiations and the intervention of British embassy officials and the Foreign Office.
		Visitors must have ³particular or family reasons² to see Leyla Zana, said Ann Clwyd, who eventually persuaded the Turkish ambassador that she had a valid reason as chair of the Parliamentary Human Rights Committee and the only British member of the IPU, a body which oversees the welfare of politicians.
		Ms Clwyd was informed by the governor that Turkey was awaiting an imminent ruling from the European Court of Human Rights on the case of the DEP MPs, that included Leyla Zana, after which there would either be a retrial or she would be released.

		Ann Clwyd, a Labour left-winger who supported the war on Iraq, says people should be focusing their attention on the humanitarian crisis in the country, which has seen thousands of people killed and tortured over 35 years.
		Ms Clwyd, MP for Cynon Valley, was speaking out as Mr Blair came under pressure over the way the government made the case for war in Iraq, with coalition forces yet to find weapons of mass destruction (WMD).
		But Ms Clwyd, who has been travelling round Iraq gathering information about human rights violations to report back to the prime minister, said she found the claims "exasperating".
