CODE PINK GIVES $600,000 TO THE 'OTHER SIDE' IN FALLUJAH (TREASON ALERT!)

American citizen Medea Benjamin, a leader of the anti-American group Code Pink, announced in Amman, Jordan this week that Code Pink, it's parent group Global Exchange and Families for Peace have donated $600,000 in aid to the 'other side' in the terrorist haven city of Fallujah in Iraq.

This news, which has been ignored by the media worldwide, was reported by Agence France Press but was picked up by only two small news outlets:

"I don't know of any other case in history in which the parents of fallen soldiers collected medicine ... for the families of the 'other side'," said Medea Benjamin, the founding director of Global Exchange, a human rights group.

"It is a reflection of a growing movement in the United States ... opposed to the unjust nature of this war," she said.

"This is the positive face of the American people which we would like to show ... so that we are not looked at with animosity but with love. Our hearts go out to the people of Fallujah and to all the Iraqi people," she said.

Medea Benjamin and those working with her, opposed the liberation of the people of Iraq from the brutal reign of Saddam Hussein. They call themselves human rights activists, yet they support the worst human rights violators in the world from Fidel Castro to the terrorists in Fallujah.

With American troops in harm's way in Fallujah, Medea Benjamin's proud admission that she and her cohorts are giving aid to the 'other side' should be grounds for her arrest for treason.

Code Pink along with their anti-American friends International ANSWER--whose leader Ramsey Clark is one of Saddam Hussein's defense lawyers--will be protesting President Bush at his Inaugural Parade on January 20, using permits issued by the U.S. government.

Story two.

The D.C. Chapter of Free Republic has received demonstration permits from the U.S. Park Service for two locations along the Inaugural Parade route. We have pledged that we will be peaceful and law-abiding. We have a six-year track record of such behavior that we will uphold on the 20th.

It is up to the Justice Department to deal with this. However, Congress should investigate these group's activities. Especially because most of them are tax exempt 501(c)3s.

The 109th Congress convenes this week. Please call your representatives and senators to demand they take action to protect our soldiers from these traitors.

And call the office of the U.S. Attorney General: 202-353-1555

Good. This is good info. Next time I'm called a racist and a warmonger, I'll point this out.

The Code Pink Commies gave a half-mil to Al Qaeda in Iraq? Gee, why am I not surprised??

"American citizen Medea Benjamin"

Disgusting
Should be "Former American Citizen"

[Raycpa]

Think of the bright side. Its 600K less they have to spend on elections.

two words-firing squad...

[DoctorMichael]

This crap will continue, and get worse, up until the time that our Justice Dept. decides to start prosecuting these clowns and their ilk.

[traderrob6]

And this is legal??

[tgslTakoma]

If this isn't evidence of TREASON, I don't know what is.

And would somebody please tell me just why it is that the US Park Service, Park Police, US Secret Service, etc. are allowing Medea Benjamin and the rest of her "coalition" of "peace groups" to be anywhere near the President or the Inaugural Parade route; especially with her open support of the people who are killing our soldiers???

It should be completely obvious to everyone by now that Medea Benjamin, Brian Becker, Mara VerHeyden-Hilliard, Carl Messineo, and all the rest of the coalition of traitors want the deaths of American soldiers, civilians, leaders, etc., including our president.

[Shqipo]

Don't sweat it. They just keep on digging their ditch a little deeper. Can't wait for one of them to deliver their funds in person and get their heads lobbed off for their efforts.

[kristinn]

The precedent was set during Vietnam when Jane Fonda and John Kerry were allowed to get away with treason. Times change, and this precednet should be changed. Treason must be prosecuted.

[samtheman]

This is treason.

[MizSterious]

I was going to ask the same thing. People get in legal trouble for contributing to a number of terrorist "charities"--so how come these folks get away with this?

[EBH]

I think it's time for them to be shut down like any other terrorist supporting organization or charity. The accounts need to be frozen immediately.

I'm all for freedom, but there is a limit.
Somebody said that your freedom to swing your arm ends
where the other fellow's nose begins.
Giving money to the "other side" is helping to kill our
boys, plain and simple.

Aiding the enemy??? hmmmmmm...

I am thinking a call to the FBI tip number is in order...

Hell, I'm not the one who created that service...I see a crime in progress...I would call it in...

Seems reasonable...Call your Congress-critter Monday...Call the Fibbies today...

Later,
Steve
