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.

So Susie honey. How are we to know that the money is being used for medicine instead of RPGs?
What was the background on that debate? It had to be a hoot.
To disprove your "look of fear" comment about President Bush delivering his speech, I present real time posts made at the time:

There must have been protesters...crowd started shouting 4 more years. Yup. Escorted out. Dubya pauses. Looks relaxed and chuckling.

Just drug one of them out and George was smirking.
It goes on from there.
I think Code Pink is vile. But intimidate President Bush? What a joke. That does not mean they aren't dangerous in their own zany and misguided (and yes, evil) way and I wish they would be prosecuted for supporting the enemy.
I have an idea. Forget all the treason issues. Let's just take these morons and turn them loose in Fallujah and see how long they keep their heads.
It wasn't long before we went into Iraq. I can't even remember what program it was on. Sorry.
"Check them out if you don't know them already"
Don't worry .. I already know who and what they are - and where their funding comes from. It's straight out of the Marxist camps .. or the pit of hell .. whichever you prefer.
Actually, Middle East Children's Alliance and Operation USA contributed the $500,000 of medical aid.
Code Pink is referring to aiding the "other side". I'm willing to concede that they most likely wish to help regular Iraqis and refuse to accept that our military action is also there to benefit same. And I despise them for pretending we're not helping innocent Iraqis. Were it up to them the Iraqis would all still be ruled and terrorized by Saddam whilst he was in turn aiding and abetting terrorism all over the world.
We can't win wars this way people.....damn.
Very well. I won't drag the thread off-topic to document and debate Saddam's terrorist connections and activities, but leave the Code Pink points to stand.
Good question! I will await an answer as well.
She looks like she could audition for a part as a villager in Who-ville for "Grinch"....WITHOUT CAST MAKE-UP.
Thanks!She looks like she could be related to Patty Murray! Another traitor.
I still don't. These people need to be in jail, not in attendance at events like the Inauguration.
Hmmm...looks like Tom Petty to me.
If we don't fund the enemy with cash there will be no wars. The enemy needs this financial support in order to pay the Syrians who cross the border to fight against us.
With the elections coming in January the need is critical!
