6 Marines, scores of Iraqis killed in fierce battle

BY RON HARRIS

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

HUSAYBAH, Iraq - (KRT) - Six Marines were killed and scores of insurgent
Iraqis slain in a fierce 14-hour battle Saturday between Marines and
mujahedeen fighters who slipped into this town near the Syrian border.

According to Marines, an estimated 300 Iraqis from Fallujah and Ramadi
launched an assault against the Americans in Husaybah around 8 a.m.
local time, beginning with a roadside bombing and a flurry of 24 mortars.

When Marines responded to the bombing, they were met with small-arms and
machine-gun fire as they neared a former Baath Party headquarters.

Marines responding to the call for help were mortared and strafed as
they made their way into the city. Additional Marines then joined in the
fight.

All of those Marines died so that your ****ing civilian ass could sleep
peacefully tonight. I hope you say a pray for them.

Iraq was no threat to the safety of US civilians.

All those Marines died so that your ****ing civilian ass could pay
through the nose for a Neocon fantasy that Henry Kissinger laid out in
the early seventies.

Car salesmen must love you.

I will pray for those poor souls who had to perish for fools like you.

Iraq was no threat to the safety of US civilians.

Why? Because there was an ocean between us?

There is enough circumstantial evidence suggesting that Iraq has waged a
clandestine terror war against the U.S. since the 1993 bombing of the WTC.
Would today's circumstantial evidence get a conviction in a U.S. court of
law? Yes. In fact, it already did:

Lawsuit ruling finds Iraq partly responsible for 9/11
By Richard Willing, USA TODAY
NEW YORK - A federal judge in New York City on Wednesday found Iraq among
those liable for the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks and awarded nearly
$104 million to the families of two men who died in the World Trade Center.
The ruling by U.S. District Judge Harold Baer marked the first time that a
court had pinned some blame for the attacks on Iraq.

"That in itself is significant," said James Beasley, an attorney who
represented the families.

"There's a bunch of (other) cases in process just waiting to see if we could
convince a court (of Iraq's complicity). So now the principle is
established, and we can get the families the money that they need badly."

Collecting may prove difficult. On March 20, about $1.7 billion in Iraqi
assets frozen since 1990 were transferred by President Bush to the U.S.
Treasury to be used as a down payment on re-building postwar Iraq. Unless
Bush relents, that money appears to be beyond the reach of the plaintiffs:
the estates of business analyst George Smith and securities executive
Timothy Soulas

It is not known whether the government that assumes power in Iraq will be
willing or able to pay the claim.

Baer relied on testimony from former CIA director James Woolsey and from
author Laurie Mylroie in determining that Iraq "provided material support"
to Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda. He also cited Colin Powell's speech to the
United Nations on Feb. 5 in which the secretary of State linked Iraq to
Islamist terrorism.

The testimony, Baer wrote, "barely" established a link between al-Qaeda and
Iraq but offered enough proof to persuade a "reasonable jury."

Beside Iraq, defendants included al-Qaeda, bin Laden, the Taliban and the
former government of Afghanistan. None of the defendants responded to the
lawsuit, but lawyers for the plaintiffs still had to prove Iraq was liable
for damages.

The ruling provides ammunition for other plaintiffs pressing claims against
Iraq.

In Washington, D.C., six widows and the mother of one victim of the Sept. 11
attacks are seeking class-action status in their lawsuit against Iraq.

In another Washington case, 17 Americans taken prisoner during the 1991
Persian Gulf War and 37 of their family members are seeking $910 million for
mistreatment.

Separately, the federal government has set up a victims compensation fund to
pay the families of victims of the terrorist attacks, provided they waive
their right to sue American companies and government bodies. Recipients are
permitted to file lawsuits against al-Qaeda and Iraq.

The fund is expected to disburse $4 billion. Initial awards have averaged
about $1.75 million for each victim's family.

Big ocean around Oklahoma City. Another big one around Waco.

No, those soldiers died so your dumb-assed, cowboy president could get
re-elected and make more money for his rich friends. Let's get real
about this war.

Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzt. Wrong. All those marines died because we have a
dunce as CiC who is absolutely clueless and who is being led around by
the nose by the neocons in his administration.

Is there any prinicple or ideal that you hold dear and would be willing to
give your life for?

Those marines died for nothing. Their lives were wasted, and their
families are suffering. They were nothing more than pawns in a game
being played by the Bush-****ters. Iraq posed no threat to the United
States, there were no weapons of mass destruction, and there were no
direct and significant connections between Saddam Hussein and the 9/11
terrorists and activities.

Competent legal authorites within the U.S. judged that Iraq was involved in
terrorist activities.

No matter how much you and the other crazed neocons rationalize, you
cannot justify the latest Bush's latest war. It is blowing up in our
faces, and it will continue to do so. The concept of world domination by
a superpower is kaput, especially since nations more radical than the
Soviet Union ever was have nuclear capabilities.

Our activities in Iraq today are a continuation of the hostilities from
1991.

We're going to pay a big price for Bush's misadventure in Iraq.

It is better to fight against those that want to oppress and kill you rather
than rolling over and letting them walk all over you.

Rational Americans everywhere are praying. They pray for the families of
Bush's victims, such as the marines AND the innocent civilians killed in
Iraq, and they pray that America's long nightmare as embodied by the
Bush Administration will come to an end next January with Bush's defeat
this November.

But there is a far larger number of Americans that hope and pray that Bush
is reelected. If Kerry is elected then we can expect that Kerry will bend
over and let the rest of the world have its way with us.

Bush's reign will forever be seen as a black mark on our nation's history.

Bush is a great president due to the fact that he is standing up to those
that wish to subjugate us to their radical beliefs.

The most curious thing about all of your ralling against bush is that you
never directly support Kerry. I never hear what Kerry is going to do. What
is Kerry going to do? How is he going to do it? When is he going to do it? I
believe that even the Democrats are scared to death that if Kerry gets
elected our country will take a giant leap in to the cesspool of European
Socialism and we will suffer all of the ills of Socialism.

Seems that Pres. Bush was smart enough to get elected President of the U.S.
of A. What have you done lately?

How did your patron saint of fund rasing, Terry McAuliffe(sp), make all of
his millions? Was it on the backs of the workers?

You had better rethink your hatred of corporations due to the fact that you
have a vested interest, your retirement funds, in seeing that those
corporation continue to make money which will raise their stock prices.

Get over it, the constitutional form of government proved its greatness in
the election of 2000. The rules at the time were made to be effective rather
than pushed aside or changed.

Get over it. Bush's brother disenfranchised tens of thousands of voters
whose names "resembled" those of felons, a deliberate error, and the
Supreme Court, controlled by Conservative pigs, made a decision that
favored their boy.
