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.

OOps that was supposed to be a FReep mail. I'll Freep mail the mods to delete it.
Good idea.
You don't want to be Zotted (or whatever they call it there)
You mean tombstoned. Never happen. once you get enough posts over there they think you are god.
I'm Tinoire
I just don't get why the DUmmies think that was such a funny trick.
How sophomoric.
I clicked on the thread, and saw the photo of an obvious Ann Coulter photo-shop image, though didn't read the rest of the thread. Then you picked up on what was going on.
How amusing of the DUmmies. Their brand of humor is beneath contempt.
I'm still laughing...at them!
DUnderheads.
As if Susie Benjamin could ever hold a candle to Annie, in looks or brains.
US citizen maybe. American; no way.

Hey.. ASK ME ANYTHING is a FReeper!!!
Thanks for the links!
What useful idiots these people are.
Do we even have a definition of 'treason' anymore; and a price to pay for committing such acts that give aid and comfort to our enemy?
Given the collective efforts of the Left/Demwits in our Country; especially post 9/11 and the war. . .I am doubting that we have either.
Thanks for the ping!
So code pink gave money to Al-Qaeda?
I'm going to tell my Dem family about this and see how they like it.
And I'll tell them they get the truth on FR!
I've heard Dems say that the money is for 'widows and orphans', like that's true. Well I say it's treason if that money goes to a family who had anything to do with terrorism.
Reminder bump! (Kristinn's thread from Jan 1, 2005)
They need a one-way ticket to Gitmo.
bttt
