The Worker-Communist Party of Iraq (Arabic language: ''Hizb al-Shuyu'i al-'Ummali al-'Iraqi'') is a Marxist political party in Iraq and amongst Iraqi exiles. They opposed both Saddam Hussein and the American-led new administration. Under the Ba'athist regime, the group was persecuted, and so operated primarily in the Kurdistan region, and overseas in the United Kingdom and Australia (where they were among the founders of the Socialist Alliance (Australia)). They are involved in ''The Progressive Coalition'', ''The Organisation of Women’s Freedom in Iraq'' and the ''Union of the Unemployed in Iraq''. They produce a newsletter called ''Iraq Weekly''. It is a sister party of the Worker-Communist Party of Iran - Hekmatist. The english version of the political party's platform (written in 1994) called for many social reforms, such as the legalization of abortion and homosexuality. Yet, the party platform has since been removed from the website. ==External links== *[http://www.wpiraq.org/english/ Worker-Communist Party of Iraq (in English)] *[http://www.equalityiniraq.com/english.htm The Organisation of Women's Freedom in Iraq] *[http://www.wpiraq.net/english/archive.html Worker-Communist Party of Iraq (old website)] Communist parties Political parties in Iraq
I am concerned about the links on this page being out of date, also I believe there are some interesting recent developments that could stand being documented here. Their web page seems to have moved to http://www.wpiraq.net Consequently, I have e-mailed the WCPI accordingly, and look forward to reading the updated entry. Regards Chris Cawsey
