UNPRECEDENTEDLY FIERCE BATTLES RAGE IN AL-FALLUJAH SUNDAY NIGHT AS RESISTANCE BURNS THE GROUND UNDER THE AGGRESSORS’ FEET.

Iraqi Resistance forces unleashed a rocket assault on the US occupation base in Samarra’ on Sunday. According to the correspondent of Mafkarat al-Islam in the city, the Resistance fired four Katyusha rockets into the US camp, scoring direct hits on targets and killing 27 US aggressor troops, five of them commanders of US operations in that region.

The US aggressors are looking for two Iraqi agents who worked with them because they believe that they leaked information about the layout and activities of the US base to the Resistance. Iraqi Resistance rockets hit targets with such accuracy that they have shocked the US occupation troops and convinced them that the Resistance must have had access to inside information.



This photo was on the website. I don't think it's been published in the US.

1. Change the channel

Put Mark Kimmitt back on please. Don't these people know that Iraq is sovereign and free, and that the Iraqi's are happy about the foreign presence.

I heard nothing of this on the telly.. Must be all lies.

2. Not exactly a reliable source, friend

This headline seals it for me:

At least American news tries to appear impartial. Plus the posting was to a discussion board, not a legit news source

10. U.S. Foreign Policy I may...

...and often do disagree with. But you'll never find me giving a hearty "good on 'em" to those whom are killing our troops in the field, no matter how fool-hardy the cause their political leadership may have sent them into. That kind of sentiment is as morally bankrupt as it is descipable - all your babble about "the resistance" be damned.
And I'd be willing to bet that the current Democratic nominee for the presidency of the United States would probably agree with me...

7. Impartiality

"At least American news tries to appear impartial."

Only for domestic consumption. Parroting the Pentagon does NOT appear impartial to people with other news sources. But I do agree that this article probably reads to Americans as US news reads to arabs.

Inciting to Murder when he reports from the trial of Saddam?

9. I think the poster is saying good for the Iraqis to stand up to the bullie

Bring the troops home

11. What I'm saying is How Do We Know the Truth?

This could very well have happened. With all the lies told and crimes committed by this administration, why should we NOT believe another source for a change?

Those sad empty Boots...

Bring Back our Men and Women in Iraq with their BOOTS STILL ON, PLEASE!!!
