US Military “Commemorates” Its Iraq Massacre. “Tell Them It’s the Sound of Freedom.”

US Military “Commemorates” Its Iraq Massacre. “Tell Them It’s the Sound of Freedom.”

April 23, 2014 "ICH"
-

“We gather tonight knowing that this generation of
heroes has made the United States safer and more
respected round the world.” 

(President Barack Obama, State of the Union address,
24th January 2012.)



As Easter was
celebrated in the US and UK with, for believers, the
message of hope, Fallujah, the region and much of
the country is again under siege, not this time by
US mass murderers, but by the US proxy government’s
militias armed with US delivered weapons.
In 2003, a
month into the invasion, Easter Day fell on the same
day as this year, 20th April, as Iraqis of all
denominations and none, died were incarcerated,
tortured, found with their heads drilled, or no
heads, thrown on garbage piles.
Easter Day
the following year, 2004 fell on Sunday 11th April
and was marked by Brigadier General Mark Kimmitt
confirming again his total disregard for human life.
In the words of former USCENTOCOM Commander General
Tommy Franks who led the Iraq invasion in March
2003, “it is not productive to count Iraqi deaths”.

Broken Spring?       : Information Clearing House

Broken Spring?       : Information Clearing House This is a sequel to my June 2011 article, ‘After the spring’, on the upheavals in the Arab world. It is an article that has been painful to write, because it brings bad tidings and offers a pessimistic analysis of the upheavals, at least in the short term, in a number of Arab countries. The outcomes and potential outcomes of these uprisings have also acquired new, very significant dimensions. These include a complex entanglement with the accelerated preparations for a possible attack on Iran, and a poisonous, sectarian aspect that could have the consequence of ripping Syria and the Middle East apart.
