Using the same rhetoric as his master, Mr. Bush, he spoke of bringing justice to Falluja, killing the terrorists, etc., etc., ad nauseum. Yesterday martial law was enacted across Iraq (excluding the Kurdish controlled north), but today Allawi laid out six steps for implementing his "security law," which entails a 6pm curfew imposed on Falluja, all highways closed except for emergencies and government vehicles, General Institutions to be closed, a ban of all weapons in Falluja, the Iraqi borders with Syria and Jordan to be closed except for food trucks and vehicles carrying other necessary goods, and the closing of Baghdad International Airport for 48 hours. This is what freedom and democracy look like in liberated Iraq today. read more... <http://www.iraq-news-net.de/?/news/news/2439/> An Open Letter to Michael & Ralph: Dog John Kerry and the Democratic Party! /Antiimperialism worldwide, *montages.blogspot.com*, 2004-11-09/ An Open Letter to Michael & Ralph: Dog John Kerry and the Democratic Party!

Schon die ersten Meldungen �ber den Angriff lieferten Belege f�r Kriegsverbrechen der US-Soldaten. Die westlich von Bagdad gelegene Stadt wurde demnach von AC-130-Erdkampfflugzeugen aus beschossen.

Doch nun kennt auch Colin Powell keine Hemmungen mehr. Mit einer Kriegserkl�rung hat er seine Anwartschaft auf das Au�enministeramt auch in der Regierung Bush II angemeldet. Die US-Au�enpolitik, verk�ndete er, werde aggressiv bleiben - wie sie es �traditionell� immer gewesen sei. Das sollte zwar nicht �berraschen. �berraschend ist nur die Selbstverst�ndlichkeit, mit der das Powell zum Ausdruck brachte. Aggressiv ist cool. Seit der Herrschaft des deutschen Faschismus hat es eine solch dramatische Umkehr der Werte nicht gegeben. read more... <http://www.iraq-news-net.de/?/news/german/2455/> US-Faschistischer Massenmord in Fallujah: Kein Wasser, keine �rzte /*R�diger G�bel / Junge Welt*, 2004-11-09/ 10.11.2004 Titel R�diger G�bel Kein Wasser, keine �rzte Rettungsdienste in Falludscha schlagen Alarm: Krankenhaus abgeriegelt, Ambulanzen beschossen.
