My friend Eric Levy, who has died aged 94, was a teacher, an activist and a tireless campaigner for human rights.
He was one of more than 500 “human shields” who went to Baghdad in 2003 to try to stop the war and – when that failed – to attempt to prevent the targeting of Iraqi civilian infrastructure sites. He later told me he had no regrets. “We may have failed to stop the invasion, but by putting ourselves in harm’s way, we sent a clear message to the world.”
