Code Pink leader Jodie Evans, in a blog posted from the World Tribunal on Iraq, today gave her open support to the terrorists in Iraq who are killing American soldiers and Iraqis
While some may wonder, "is this news?" it is, indeed. Code Pink has been very careful over the past three years to maintain a front of being a peace group. In fact, it's complete name is Code Pink Women for Peace. The veil slipped when co-leader Medea Benjamin shot her mouth off in Jordan last December when she proclaimed the group was giving $600,000 in cash and aid to the families of "the other side" in Fallujah.
Recently, Code Pink has been holding weekly Friday night vigils at the main gate to Walter Reed Army Medical Center to express their phony support for the men and women recuperating from their war wounds. I wonder how the soldiers and families at Walter Reed will take the news that the pink sign holding people have given their support to the terrorists in Iraq.
The D.C. Chapter will be sure to tell them at our next patriotic counter-demonstration there.
Here are Jodie Evans' remarks, preserved for posterity:
We must begin by really standing with the Iraqi people and their right to resist. I can remain myself against all forms of violence, and yet I cannot judge what someone has to do when pushed to the wall to protect all they love. What does the Iraqi resistance have to lose? They are fighting for their country, to protect their families and to preserve all they love. They are fighting for their lives, and we are fighting for lies. It is so amazingly obvious; we must get out of Iraq now. They will rebuild their country, it will take time, a long time, but they cannot start until we are gone.
Code Pink now joins ANSWER as publicly endorsing the terrorists. This has been a sticking point between ANSWER on one side and Code Pink and United for Peace and Justice on the other. I expect them all to support the terrorists publicly by the time Sept. 24-26 rolls around in Washington, D.C.
The leftists are planning "non-violent direct action and civil disobedience" in D.C. on Monday Sept. 26. When they tried that two years ago, the D.C. police swiftly disrupted their plans by arresting leftist protesters demonstrating without a permit. Since then, successful lawsuits were filed against the D.C. police and the D.C. City Council passed a law severely restricting the cops' ability to preserve law and order in the city when protests get out of hand.
Code Pink will be there and I'm sure their terrorist allies will be cheering them on.
Looking forward to it Flora!
I fully expect a shooting war with the left, in our country, within my lifetime.
If the American people do not remain convinced that terrorism is the greatest threat in our lifetimes, we are doomed.
No, I'm not familiar with the person. Just ran across his/her comment here that I partly agreed and disagreed. Is that okay?
Stock ammunition.
Keep up on the target range.
But I really doubt that they would engage, after all, they don't believe in guns.

More for your "Proof that Rove is Right" thread.
Of course that is okay. :^)
PS: I've been here a "little" longer than you and yet am not aware of this poster's history enough to judge him/her. Guess I've not been hanging around with the "right" people?
Oh, wow, thanks!
Don't underestimate the left. All their heroes believe in guns.
Lenin believed in guns. Castro believes in guns. Stalin believed in guns. Che Guevara believed in guns.
They just don't like it when WE have guns.
I'm a little concerned that missyme was banned. She's harmless.
More like you've been lucky. 8^)
I would have listed his "In Forum" links, but hey, he's history.
Shoot. Who's missyme and why was She banned? Guess I need to go back and read some more than.....
Code Pink will hold a book signing of their latest book "STOP THE NEXT WAR NOW" by Medea Benjamin and Jodie Evans at the NEA annual convention in Los Angeles in July. Time for a freep by LA area freepers.
Ah ha! That didn't take long. Bwahahahaha, missyme! You sound like a big joke, poor thing.
I, too, hate those who engage in the practice of jorun.
It seems to me that if this group is actually giving money to the families of terrorists, that they're providing aid and comfort to the enemy, a textbood definition of treason, as well as breaking laws in the patriot act, which prohibit contributing to terrorist causes.
These people need to be slapped down hard, and shown as what they are!

I didn't know you thought about things like this! I mean, who would've guessed that inside the mind of a woman who puts blurry come-and-get-me-guys pictures on her Home Page and posts nothing but salacious chat would have a political opinion on anything? That surprises many of us more than the realization that you are apparently a liberal.
How DARE you call Rummy a liar?!
