HMMM?
Michael Moore said these guys were like our Minutemen from the American Revolution.
We just sacrificed 40 US soldiers to FREE the citizens of Fallujah from their grotesque nightmare. But what will the MSM focus on? THe few civilians who were caught in the crossfire and the fact that all of the Sunni triangle is not 100% terrorist free. We need to start a paper to compete daily with the USA today. A paper that celebrates our history, our good works throughout the world and our military. With a good sports section, it would become the best selling paper in the country.
Yet the Liberals claim we should not be in Iraq at all.
Seems to me that anyone who thinks we should not be helping these people, is condoning the rape, murder, torture, and mutilation they have been enduring....
Sounds like Afghanistan all over again.
this is why we need to fight. this vermin needs to be eradicated. the marines do their part abroad, we need to do our part at home. support the fighting men and women of the us armed forces.
Wow! What a bunch of hard asses!
You mean to tell me, the GFCC (Greater Fallujah Chamber of Commerce) didn't stand up to them!
Some interesting sidelights here. Saddam - and presumably the bulk of the local insurgents who worked for him - ran a more secular police state than this. This level of religious fanaticism suggests foreign involvement, even foreign sponsorship. We've shaken this particular tree pretty well now and it will be interesting to see what falls out.
Flyposters still litter the walls bearing all manner of decrees from insurgent commanders, to be heeded on pain of death.
The decree warns all women that they must cover up from head to toe outdoors, or face execution by the armed militants who controlled the streets. Two female bodies found yesterday suggest such threats were far from idle. An Arab woman, in a violet nightdress, lay in a post-mortem embrace with a male corpse in the middle of the street. Both bodies had died from bullets to the head.
Just six metres away on the same street lay the decomposing corpse of a blonde-haired white woman, too disfigured for swift identification but presumed to be the body of one of the many foreign hostages kidnapped by the rebels.
A previously unknown rebel group last week threatened to behead Dr Allawi's cousin, his wife and their heavily pregnant daughter-in-law unless the assault on Fallujah was stopped.
"They would wear black masks, carry rocket-propelled grenades and Kalashnikovs, and search streets and alleys," said Iyad Assam, 24. "I would hear stories, about how they executed five men one day and seven another for collaborating with the Americans. They made checkpoints on the roads. They put announcements on walls banning music and telling women to wear the veil from head to toe."
"It was a very hard life. We couldn't move. We could not work," said the man sporting the white robe and skullcap prescribed by his faith. "If they had any issue with a person, they would kill him or throw him in jail."
The Iraqis who have risen up against the occupation are not insurgents or terrorists or The Enemy. They are the REVOLUTION, the Minutemen, and their numbers will growand they will win. - Michael Moore, 4/14/2004
fyi

Bump for publicity...
Talk show host Dennis Prager (and VOA) say this article won't make into the American MSM...
Check your local/state papers today and tomorrow to see if it does...
(the MSM is too busy trying to hang a Marine, heck, any US soldier for a "war crime" to
report this "propaganda"....)
Embedded reporters for who? The enemy?
Sites has shown his true colors and they are not America's.
Furthermore, the whole policy of embedded reporters needs to be overhauled but better yet, tossed out with the nightly news. Can you imagine if Sites was doing his ideological "thing" in WWII or Korea? We'd all be speaking German or Russian.
