    12 November 2004

    “And when it is said unto them: Do not make mischief in the earth, they say, we are only peacemakers” (Al-Koran 2:11)
    by Yamin Zakaria
    In the name of peace they have been terrorising the innocents, committing mass murder and pillaging their resources as billions of oil revenue are still unaccounted for. In occupied Palestine, the same story, the ones who constantly cries wolf about being victims and desiring peace have been busy ethnic cleansing the natives to pave the way for God’s (…)

  • Iraq’s Weapons of Mass Destruction
    12 November 2004

    In honor of Veterans Day we would like the troops to have a little background on why they are in Iraq instead of home with their families so here is a report from the UK outlining the history of the Iraq WMD that Saddam Hussien posessed, it has not been in the mainstream press in the United States and has been overlooked in the story of why we are fighting a war in Iraq over WMD. This is a meeting in the UK parliament during July of 2004 less than 6 months ago, and the truth will soon be (…)

  • I Resolve Not To Be Distracted From Election Investigation If Another Attack Occurs:
    12 November 2004

    9/11 seems to have headed off any immediate investigation of the 2000 elections. It was a distraction from settling the issues that divide us as a nation - or appear to.
    I personally resolve not to be distracted from this effort if there is another attack, if Bush manages to start another war, etc. 9/11 is highly suspect, the invasion of Iraq was based on lies or gross incompetence or both, and the shock has worn off.
    We need to strive not to allow the same tactics to be used a second (…)

    12 November 2004

    by Dahr Jamail
    BAGHDAD - A military victory for U.S. forces in Fallujah seems set to lead to a huge political loss for the U.S.-backed interim Iraqi government.
    Strong anti-government reactions have set in already as reports come in from Fallujah of bombed hospitals, high civilians casualties and denial of access to medical care. The political fallout could fall far beyond Iraq.
    Several governments and international groups have warned that military action is likely to undermine (…)

  • Voices from Falluja
    12 November 2004

    US forces are locked in fierce battle against insurgents in the Iraqi city of Falluja. People from the city have been giving the BBC their account of what’s been going on.
    Hamid Flewa, lawyer and Falluja resident:
    We heard a lot overnight [on Wednesday] and the bombing intensified at dawn. [Wednesday’s] onslaught affected most districts in the city.
