A Video Message from the Iraqi Resistance

by Yoshie Saturday, Jan. 15, 2005 at 5:14 AM

Reuters obtained from Iraqi guerrillas "an English-language video urging U.S. troops to lay down their weapons and seek refuge in mosques and homes" (Michael Georgy, "Iraq Rebels in Video Taunt," January 12, 2005), promising protection to soldiers who heed their call. The Information Clearing House has made the video and a transcript of its content available: "A Message from the 'Iraq Resistance.'"

Bullshit

by Jack Mehoffer Saturday, Jan. 15, 2005 at 1:39 PM

I bet this video is a hoax. In any event, it's totally laughable. The insurgents are killing far more of their fellow citizens and of their own fighters than they are killing Americans or Brits. Is that how one fights a guerrilla war? By killing those you claim to be serving? These guys sure know how to win hearts and minds...

And they'll "protect" us if we seek refuge in their "homes and mosques". Utter bullshit. They've already proven time and again with videotaped footage how they'd like to protect us, mostly by chanting some muslim banter while decapitating one of our children.

It's about time to take the gloves off with these pricks. A few precisely place nukes would do the trick.

I for one wish the networks would air this video, that is, if it's determinded to be authentic, which I highly doubt. It would piss the American people off beyond belief, and would likely lead our politicians toward scaling up and escalating the fighting.

And the narrator didn't sound to me like he was educated in America. He has a British accent..

A guaranteed hoax.

After watching the video a second time, I'm convinced this is a hoax. Most likely came from some liberals/leftist/socialists out of the UK. The dufus narrator sounds like he's speaking the Queen's english, not even close to an Americanized accent. And where the hell did these insurgents get the vidoe equipment to make this feature? Everything we've seen to date from these losers has been camcorder quality footage with minimal production. Music in the background, credits, and logos? This looks more like a college audio/visual student's stunt. And why didn't they shoot their own footage? Why all the low quality clips? This thing can be summarily dismissed.
