Tauris revised edition 1990), (3)Abdullah Muhsin and Alan Johnson "Hadi Never Died : Hadi Saleh and the Iraqi Trade Unions" (Trade Union Congress, 2006) to which I wrote a preface, and (4) for my own Part 4 the Iraqi Communist Party's English Web-site.Harry Barneshttp://threescoreyearsand ten.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1953410733493889728.post-32345243828576109932011-03-24T07:22:08.162-07:002011-03-24T07:22:08.162-07:00Harry, thanks for the links.
