Good job George

GWB sent his boys to kill Iraqis until they submit. Iraqis refused to be occupied but only a portion amongst them fought the occupation to stand still. For George the kid, it won’t have matter who resisted the occupation. He said “bring em on” the resistance just has begun then. He taunted the occupied and ridiculed the leaders of Iraqis. He told them how they should live their lives, tortured them and killed them: 650,000 of them. It was an achievement. Today he was told 3000 of his boys has died. They are most likely from low income families who went to war for scholarship or to kill terrorists (Muslims). I am sure George the boy would look at the numbers and would say “for each troop killed there are 220 Iraqi men, woman, and kids that are eliminated”. It is great isn’t it? 220 terrorists for each troop? It is a great deal! Oh, by the way there are 2 million Iraqis already exiled, that should help too. Sooner or later George could empty Iraq from Iraqis just like his ancestors did t

The lynching of Saddam Hussein

By Gwynne Dyer On Sunday, the sentence of death by hanging was pronounced on Saddam and two of his fellow defendants. He responded with a clearly rehearsed tirade – "Long live Iraq! Long live the Iraqi people! Down with the traitors!" – and then left the courtroom with a little smile playing on his face, as if he had won. Which he had, within the narrow confines of what remains possible for him.

On the Gallows, Curses for U.S. and ‘Traitors’

December 31, 2006 By MARC SANTORA ............Mowaffak al-Rubaie, Iraq’s national security adviser, asked Mr. Hussein if he had any remorse or fear. “No,” he said bluntly. “I am a militant and I have no fear for myself. I have spent my life in jihad and fighting aggression. Anyone who takes this route should not be afraid.”...........

Thousands flock to see Saddam's grave

Iraqis grieve beside the grave of the former Iraqi president Saddam Hussein in Ouja, 130 kilometers (80 miles) north of Baghdad, Iraq, Sunday, Dec. 31, 2006. Saddam was buried shortly before dawn Sunday inside a compound for religious ceremonies in the center of Ouja, the town of his birth. (AP Photo/Bassim Daham) By several accounts, Saddam was calm but scornful of his captors, engaging in a give-and-take with the crowd gathered to watch him die and insisting he was Iraq's savior, not its tyrant and scourge. "He said we are going to heaven and our enemies will rot in hell and he also called for forgiveness and love among Iraqis but also stressed that the Iraqis should fight the Americans and the Persians," Munir Haddad, an appeals court judge who witnessed the hanging, told the British Broadcasting Corp. Another witness, national security adviser Mowaffak al-Rubaie, told The New York Times that one of the guards shouted at Saddam: "You have destroyed us. You

Tyrant met his end with fortitude

SADDAM HUSSEIN met his death on the scaffold in Baghdad yesterday with fortitude and calm. It was an extraordinary, melodramatic end to a life of confrontation and defiance — a final performance to launch himself as a martyr............. His last moments, face to face with death, were part of that same strategy. He knew Iraqis very well, and he knew what they liked in their leaders. The Saddam legend is only just beginning.............. Haddad had interrogated Saddam immediately after his capture, when he was still disoriented and deeply depressed. Now, he said, he expected Saddam to break down and perhaps plead for mercy when facing death. But nothing of the sort happened. Instead, when one of the executioners shouted out “Long live Moqtada al-Sadr” — referring to the fiery young Shi’ite cleric who controls large parts of southern Iraq — Saddam replied with a contemptuous snort. As he was taken to the execution chamber he was chanting “God is great”.................. Now he is gone. T

Comments made by Saddam during trials

"I realize there is pressure on you and I regret that I have to confront one of my sons. But I'm not doing it for myself. I'm doing it for Iraq. I'm not defending myself. But I am defending you." — Dec. 5, 2005, speaking to judge at his first trial, for killings of 148 Iraqi Shiite Muslims from Dujail. "I am not afraid of execution." — Dec. 5, 2005, nearly a year before he was sentenced to death. "I'm not complaining about the Americans, because I can poke their eyes with my own hands." — Dec. 21, 2005, after accusing American guards of beating him.

Saddam buried in his home village

Tikrit, Dec 31: Saddam Hussein was buried before dawn on Sunday in his native village of Awja, near Tikrit in northern Iraq, the head of his tribe said. In a sparsely attended ceremony in Awja, in the Tikrit region north of the capital, the former Iraqi leader was laid to rest in a family plot. Ali al-Nida, head of the Albu Nasir tribe, told journalists the burial in a family plot took place in the early morning, less than 24 hours after the former President was hanged for crimes against humanity. His sons Uday and Qusay, killed by U.S. troops in 2003, are also buried in Awja. His body was reportedly flown to Awja near Tikrit aboard a US aircraft and handed to clan leaders for burial. Earlier, his family said the former Iraqi leader would be buried in Ramadi - a Sunni insurgent stronghold - citing security concerns.

US will be defeated in Afghanistan: Former CIA official

Washington, Dec 31: A former senior CIA operative who tracked Osama bin Laden for 10 long years foresees "an apparent American defeat in Afghanistan". Michael Sheuer said the way ahead in Afghanistan and along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border "ultimately would lead to the defeat of US and NATO forces and the demise of the Karzai government". Scheuer told the Daily Times in Washington that by failing to accomplish the only mission that had to be accomplished in Afghanistan, the US was now faced with a growing insurgency that probably already outnumbered the combined US-NATO forces. Former CIA Member and Chief of the bin Laden Unit Michael Scheuer,

Mullah Dadullah- America’s new Frankenstein in Afghanistan

http://www.zeenews.com/ Mullah Dadullah Akhund, the ruthless Taliban leader in charge of the militia’s campaign against NATO’s International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in southern and eastern Afghanistan is fast becoming what Abu Musaib al Zarqawi had become for US forces in Iraq. He shares many traits with Zarqawi, though unlike the slain al Qaeda Iraq chief, he is disabled, having lost one of his legs after stepping on a landmine in Herat in eastern Afghanistan in 1994 while battling the Ahmad Shah Masood led Northern Alliance. He has a fondness for beheading his captives, and is feared by both his opponents and followers. He is also known to behead his followers who disobey him, but is still respected as a leader who can deal a crushing blow to his adversaries. Deriving sadistic pleasure – by beheading captives – is not the only trait Mullah Dadullah shares with Zarqawi. He churns out propaganda DVD’s encouraging scores of suicide bombers and fighters to participate in the blo

'He is already history'

In this remarkable dispatch, Ghaith Abdul-Ahad, one of the few journalists who can still move freely about Baghdad, watches the execution with Sunni insurgents Ghaith Abdul-Ahad Sunday December 31, 2006 Observer In a small, bare living room in Baghdad, two Sunni mujahideens, Abu A'isha and his friend Abu Hamza, sat mesmerised. The Shia-controlled state TV was showing the final moments of the life of their former leader, the noose being tightened around his neck. Saddam was dressed in a black coat, his black dyed hair pushed to the back, his hand and legs shackled. Men in civilian clothes and ski masks helped him up a small ladder. A trap door surrounded by a metal rail could be seen. Saddam appeared a little confused and exchanged a few words with his masked hangman, who gestured at his neck. Saddam nodded and the hangman wrapped a black piece of cloth around his neck. 'They killed him, is that possible?' Abu Hamza, a muscled Sunni insurgent in his early thirties asked in d
