SPEAKING UP IS DANGEROUS

Not speaking up will prove to be more dangerous.

Are you reading my posts???

Arab journalists are speaking up and getting mowed down.

Why don't you read what they say before claiming they don't say anything.

You must be reading the mainstream media which doesn't report on what all these murdered Arabs are saying.They are not all Saddam/terrorist shills.

It isn't enough to speak up when the terrorists have the guns. The people who speak up need protection.

SPEAKING UP--BUT TO THE AMERICANS SO THEY CAN GET THE TERRORISTS

U.S. MILITARY ASKS BAGHDAD RESIDENTS TO USE TIP LINE. The U.S. military has set up an anonymous tip line and has urged residents in the Iraqi capital to call in any information related to the insurgency, AP reported on 2 November. The agency reported that Brigadier General Jeffrey Hammond gave interviews to Arabic television networks on 1 November, asking Iraqis to provide information on planned attacks. "When you see this terrible insurgent about to do something, pick up your phone and call me. I'll do something about it," Hammond said. "We can fight this war together. You can help me fight -- in secret," he added. The First Cavalry Division, which Hammond commands, has received up to 30 calls per day since the line was set up two weeks ago, but has yet to yield any significant results. Division spokesman Lieutenant Colonel James Hutton said that it has been helpful in vetting intelligence and generating leads. AP cited Hammond as saying that the tip line is part of an Arabic media blitz organized by the division that includes weekly Arabic-only news conferences and interviews on radio call-in shows in Baghdad.
