New Delhi, Mar 20: Describing the US attacks against Iraq as "criminal and unjust on all counts", CPI-M today asked the government to categorically condemn the American aggression and made it clear that no Indian facility would be made available for any war related purpose. "The leadership of the United States and Britain will have to bear the full responsibility for the lives lost and the devastation caused to Iraq. History will not forgive them for this crime," the party polit bureau said in a statement.

"Defying worldwide opinion and failing to get the sanction of the United Nations, Bush has embarked upon an act of war which is criminal and unjust on all counts," it said.

It asked the government to "categorically condemn the US aggression and announce forthwith that no Indian facilities will be made available for any purpose associated with this war" and called upon its party units to immediately mobilise the people to conduct a powerful protest. Bureau Report
