Today American fundamentalists have officially declared war on Islam
When ex-Iraqi soldiers demonstrated outside Bremer's office at the former Presidential Palace, US troops shot two of them dead. When Falujah residents staged a protest as long ago as April, the American military shot 16 dead. Another 11 were later gunned down in Mosul. During two demonstrations against the presence of US troops near the shrine of Imam Hussein at Karbala last weekend, US soldiers shot dead another three. "What a wonderful thing it is to speak your own minds," Lt-Gen Sanchez said of the demonstrations in Iraq last week. Maybe he was exhibiting a black sense of humour.
Another G.I. killed and U.S. troops fire on crowds in Kerbala (tags)
The war grinds on. Another G.I. is killed in an overnight guerrilla attack. Meanwhile, occupation troops fire on Iraqi civilians who are trying to keep soldiers from advancing on the Imam Hussein mosque. Two Iraqis killed and the mosque left pockmarked with bullet holes (Reuters photo show U.S. soldier pushing an Iraqi man on the streets of Kerbala). George... where are the weapons of mass destruction?
What irony... all these neo-con's and flag wavers gloating over their quick military victory in Iraq. Bu$h and his corporate buddies have unleased a process that will bring about an Islamic Republic in Iraq. Pretty terrific "victory" I'd say.
