A Bloody Day in Iraq

Hammorabi (Shia from Baghdad)
Today the 24th June 2004 was a bloody day in Iraq in which hundreds of innocent Iraqis have been killed and more were wounded in several parts of Iraq by the [explative deleted] terrorist thugs. In Baqouba the terrorist controlled some IP stations and many Iraqi Police have been killed in fire exchange. Al-Jazeera TV showed pictures of masked animals with RPG7 in their hands waving while the bodies of the innocent people laying down in the street.

In Mosel hundreds of innocent people have been killed and their bodies ripped into pieces and the terrorist attacked many government building. Fighting still continued in many parts.

[..]

It is the count down for their death as it is the count down for the Iraqis to butter their bread from the side they know it well! The days of the terrorist are counted and they know that very well. This is why they try to rock the boat for the last chance in the last minute. It is over for them and so soon their filthy bodies will be executed publicly.

Now Mr Iyad Alawi and his government need to take certain action as urgent as possible. First the capital punishment should not only be to the terrorist but to those who assists them by any way at all and severe punishment for those who keeps silent about their places or activities. The other thing is to execute them in public. Those who kill should face the same destiny by the same method. The other important thing is to impose a curfew on all areas where terrorist hide and attack. There are special areas like Falluja and Baquoba should have Military rulers and military curfew with strict sanctions and no reconstructions or ordinary services until they clear themselves from the sin of the terrorist. More strict action from the coalition needed now to isolate Falluja before the 30/6/2004. It needs complete blockade now and attacks for the terrorist sites. Zarqawi days counted and he know that soon
As long as the insurgents and Al-Qaeda attack foriegners they have some support. But every attack that is focused on Iraqis only undermines their goals.

No revolutionary movement has succeeded if it attacks its own population base. Attacks like these only emphasize the weakness of the Baathists and the Insurgents. The years ahead may be long and bloody, but the end of the guerilla's is certain.

The fighting began in Falluja, a center of anti-occupation resistance and one of the tensest places in Iraq right now, at dawn, with American helicopters firing missiles into several houses. American armored personnel carriers and several dozen soldiers then stormed into the city, which has been off limits to American troops for the seven weeks since a truce was declared.

The American military said in a statement that marines and the Iraqi Falluja Brigade had responded to attacks from insurgents in and around Falluja. The brigade is the all-Iraqi force entrusted with providing security for the city.

"The fighting was very heavy and there are too many people killed to count," said Qasim Muhammad Abdul Satar, who sits on Falluja's shura council, a body of town elders.

By midafternoon, another uneasy truce was struck, and a message blared from mosque minarets for insurgents to put down their guns and go home.

Jasim Muhammad Saleh, a former Iraqi army general in Falluja, said, "The big people of the city, the sheikhs, the tribes, the police and the mayor, met with Americans to stop their fire and the Americans agreed to withdraw to their base."

I have written on Fallujah several times before.

The new Iraqi government that is elected in DEC 2005 will have to retake control of Fallujah from the Baathists and Al-Qaida.
