BREAKING NEWS: 17 KILLED IN TWO SUICIDE BOMB ATTACKS IN BAGHDAD
At least 17 killed in Baghdad bomb attacks
By DPAApr 29, 2009, 14:56 GMT
http://tinyurl.com/d36a7k
Baghdad - At least 17 people were killed in two car bomb attacks in the predominantly Shiite Baghdad neighbourhood of Sadr City, the satellite news network al-Arabiya reported Wednesday.
It was the latest in a series of deadly attacks targeting Shiite Muslims in Iraq. Suicide bombers killed more than 120 people over the space of two days last week.
In Mosul, some 400 kilometres north of Baghdad, police found the body of a beheaded girl in the city's eastern district of al-Karama, police there told the German Press Agency dpa on Wednesday.
In the eastern Mosul neighbourhood of al-Mathna, 'unknown gunmen' fatally shot a police officer in his house, police said.
The recent in rise in violence across across the country prompted the head of Iraq's tribal council, an influential body gathering the Sunni Arab tribes of Iraq, to call for the dismissal of Iraq's interior minister.
Baghdad's Buratha news agency on Wednesday reported that Ali Hatem, the leader of the Sunni, Arab al-Dulim tribe and the head of the council of Iraqi tribes, called on the government to fire Iraqi Interior Minister Jawad al-Bulani 'following a deterioration in the security' of Iraq's Sunni heartland in al-Anbar province and the rest of the country.
Hatem accused al-Bulani, who once belonged to Shiite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr's movement, of being more interested in politics than in the security of the country, Buratha reported. Al-Bulani founded the Iraqi Constitutional Party in 2005, but resigned as its leader after becoming Minister of Interior a year later.

CASEY J. PORTER, IRAQ WAR VET AND VIDEO PRODUCER, HAS A BEEF WITH IVAW
Casey J. Porter was a MSgt in the Army and served several tours in Iraq. His films and videos of his experiences as a GI in Iraq have been posted on this blog in the past. You can see them here: http://www.youtube.com/caseyjporter
This is a letter Casey has written about his experience with the IVAW (http://ivaw.org/)
After serious and long-term consideration, I have decided to end my association with Iraq Veterans Against the War. This was not a choice I made overnight or lightly, but one I must make for many reasons. I would also like to make clear that I very much appreciate the help, support and friendship of many individuals within the membership of IVAW. My reasons for leaving IVAW are in regards to the organization as a whole. IVAW lacks the professionalism necessary to be taken seriously as a legitimate anti-war organization. Whether we like to think so or not, appearance is important in how society views an organization and it's membership. There is a time and place for t-shirts such as rallies, marches, and things like that. IVAW should be requiring it's membership to dress appropriately for TV interviews, whether it's a shirt and tie, or a uniform worn correctly. By doing so, IVAW would be taken seriously as an organization to contend with, rather than another radical activist movement. IVAW is losing its focus on the message/goal of ending the war in Iraq. The national organization for IVAW is highly ineffective and unwilling to take steps to protect the entire organization and their membership. There is a long string of people within the Anti-War Movement and IVAW who will get behind anyone willing to put their face in front of a camera without consideration as to whether that person or their story is in the best interest of the organization. I believe that the organization has too many members willing to push a different agenda, and is causing IVAW to lose focus on that goal. So much so, that people who question the policies and direction being taken over by a “socialist” agenda are attacked. When I first started speaking out, the local Austin Socialist activists were very supportive, and continue to be. They put some of there other causes to the side when helping us. Then if other IVAW members want to work with them, they do. The IVAW board can not seem to understand this very basic principle. Just to be clear, it's not about the “socialist” agenda, anymore than it would be about any other agenda, whether it was “republican” or “capitalist”. It's about having an organization with too many of one group of people at the helm who could steer IVAW towards their agenda, which covers many topics, rather than keeping the focus where it should be. That is, ending the war in Iraq. IVAW has shown a serious dereliction of duty in their lack of support for active duty military members. Many people have asked me what we can do to get soldiers to speak up within the military who are against the dual wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. First and foremost, they need someone to turn to, and that organization should be IVAW. However, I can tell you from my personal experience that IVAW, as an organization, does very little, if anything, to support those who stand up within the military. The most support I received from the organization was to have my films on the front page of the website for a short time. I was not looking for monetary donations, but support in the form of promotion via media contacts and also to have my videos used by IVAW to further our goal of ending the war in Iraq. I was willing to fall on my sword, Vlad the Impaler style, in order to bring proof of why the war needs to be ended on film as it happened. Instead, all of the media contacts I have, I had to develop from Iraq via a phone connection with a four second delay and night after night of sending out emails, making phone calls, and editing the films. I know people say I have a big ego and that I love attention, but the message is and has always been my top priority. The fact that IVAW did not promote my films does not hurt my ego, it hurts that they didn't see it fit to devote anytime to what I was doing other than keeping my films on their main page for no longer than a month. Another prime example of no support is Selena Coppa. She has been under immense pressure from her chain of command yet continues to fight hard and loud. When she decided to take on the Socialist element within IVAW she was crucified. The ISO has many Anti-War organizations it uses as fronts, and IVAW just might be one of them. It may not have started out that way, but it is now. These members are not concerned with ending the war in Iraq as they are much more concerned with pushing an overall Socialist agenda. Now Selena is under pressure from the very last group that should be on her case. To those on the board of IVAW that would silence Sgt. Coppa, your actions are disgraceful and you are the worst kind of people: cowards. There are other active duty soldiers that have spoken out and continue to do so. However, to the best of my knowledge, IVAW has done nothing to support them. I fear what will happen to these members, who are putting themselves out there as part of an organization, if the Army ever clamped down on them. I fear IVAW will be nowhere to be seen. I see no support from the organization, and therefore I cannot in good faith recommend joining IVAW to other active duty soldiers I know. I'm sure the Army will be happy to read that. IVAW has put itself, and its membership, into a dangerous legal position by retaining some “problem children” as members. For example, Carl Webb places IVAW in a very serious position through his advocacy of radical action from the safety of his keyboard. Advocating of sabotage and other such actions puts other people's lives at risk and IVAW by not condemning such rhetoric and disassociating itself from persons who advocate sabotage places all members in a compromised position. It now becomes dangerous to any active duty soldier who wants to speak out by giving the Army the ammunition it needs to paint IVAW as a radical and dangerous organization. If it went to trial, all a prosecutor would have to do is point out these posts and that alone could sway a Military Jury into believing the organization is radical and advocates sabotage. And yet, IVAW is silent on Carl Webb and his methods that place other soldiers in harm's way. There is a time for forgiveness and tolerance, but I cannot be part of an organization that will not take action when a member willfully advocates putting others in harm's way. By allowing people like Carl Webb to remain a part of IVAW, not only does IVAW have a serious legal issue, it also keeps other potential members from joining. Why doesn’t the board try to remove Carl? He lashes out at other members, like me for example, and pushes for dangerous and illegal action. But guess what side he is on in IVAW? The Socialist side. IVAW treats its members with inequity and lacks credibility. While an admitted rapist, and being a party to rape on more than one occasion, Matthis Chiroux, is accorded accolades for making a big deal out of something that required no action on his part to begin with. There are also allegations that he used donated money from IVAW members and activists to pay his rent and buy drugs. But the board does not seem to be concerned with investigating or kicking him out. They even posted his “confession” on the main page of the IVAW site! Where he only brings up the rapes not out of a moral awakening but because he got called out on it. Furthermore, he blames the Army for it. The Army mindset and training made him a rapist. That is just a load of garbage and any who believes that is a fool. I also talked to the Executive Director, Alex Bacon, about this. I brought up how this is public relations nightmare and that Matthis must be dealt with. But he believes that this will not be big issue. IVAW has tried that in the past with disastrous results. I am very disappointed to see the new Director being so soft on such a volatile issue. That IVAW threw so much support behind someone like Matthis, who only had to not show up to something and would have been fine, and left active duty soldiers with little to no support, is a travesty against the many fine people involved in this organization. I read time and time again "We are made up of many different people with many different ideas and we need to be respectful of those ideas." That translates into "We don't want to hurt anyone's feelings." No matter how badly some members conduct themselves, IVAW and the "movement" seems to handle everyone with kid gloves, when they should be acting to protect the organization and it's members. It also angers me to no end how people still support Matthis. Killing someone in the heat of battle, or reflecting on past actions and coming to terms with them and speaking out is one thing. But he only came out about these crimes because he had too. Rape is nowhere near the same as taking a life in combat. I am also surprised how many women still support him. Do you ladies have any self-respect? Let’s go find the women he knew were being raped, and raped himself, and let them read his letter and see if they buy his new found “wisdom”. Here is the real kicker: neither Matthis Chiroux or Carl Webb have violated IVAW’s ultr-loose fitting rules. That’s disturbing to me and there must be some sort of accountability. To those who would marginalize the board, IVAW national, or issues dealing with Matthis and Carl you are not seeing this for what it is. Saying that we should just focus on the local level is like saying “Don’t pay attention to what your elected leaders in D.C. do, just focus on your local city government.” IVAW national represents us all, and people must understand that. As of now, all the films I have made with “IVAW Ft. Hood Presents” and credits for “www.IVAW.org” will stay in place since they are reaching a large audience and I believe it is information that needs to be out there. I want my profile removed from the IVAW site. There will be more films and interviews to come regarding the war in Iraq, however they will be done as Casey J Porter the filmmaker, not as an IVAW member. The Deployment Game: Livin' FOBulous will at some point be taken down and re-edited to remove the dedication title from the beginning to remove any reference to Matthis Chiroux. I will also be contacting the producer of Winter Soldier: Austin and see what happens from there with that film. My next film, Return of the Camaro, will be out on May 4th. Fire Mission, the next film dealing with Iraq, will be out on July 20th. Considering the legal liabilities, lack of support, possible financial mismanagement, and a rapist amongst the membership, I am removing myself from this organization effective immediately. To those among you who have been and continue to be supportive of me, I thank you for all that you have done. There are many good people involved with IVAW and I wish you luck. I ask all media contacts to no longer refer to me as an IVAW member. Casey J Porter

FURTHER UPDATE ON FEMALE SOLDIER WHO COMMITTED SUICIDE FOR NOT PARTICIPATING IN TORTURE OF IRAQI PRISONERS
Allysa Peterson was a beautiful 27-year old soldier assigned to an Iraqi prison where torture techniques were being used on Iraqi prisoners. Allysa had already seen what the Bush/Cheney "regime" wanted done to Iraqi prisoners and it had sickened her. She refused to be a part of the barbaric practice of torturing Iraqi prisoners and committed suicide. For years the Bush/Cheney "regime" and the U.S. military covered up the cause of her death, but now the full story has come out. Allysa's untimely death is just another nail in the coffin that hopefully will bring former President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney before a judge and jury where they along with others from the Bush administration will be charged with WAR CRIMES.
You can read more about Allysa Peterson here:

FEMALE SOLDIER COMMITS SUICIDE AFTER WITNESSING TORTURE METHODS IN IRAQ
Torture methods claimed life of US soldier
Sun, 26 Apr 2009 07:22:30 GMT
http://www.presstv.ir/detail.aspx?id=92588§ionid=3510203
A US soldier who worked as an interpreter in Iraq's prisons has shot herself dead after witnessing harsh interrogation methods by the US military.
Alyssa Peterson from Arizona shot herself with her service rifle at Tal-Afar air base in northern Iraq on September 15, 2003, the Independent reported on Sunday
Peterson had protested to her superiors about the torture tactics that were very different from the ones she had known in training and had asked to be reassigned before the incident.
The cause of her death was kept secret for two years, and the mystery of what Peterson witnessed, and the content of the notes she made, still goes on.
An Arab-speaker, Peterson was assigned to work as an interpreter at interrogation sessions in a unit known as "The Cage." After only two nights, she refused to take further part in the sessions and was reassigned, according to the Independent.
Her family was told she had died from a "non-hostile weapons discharge." The army revealed Peterson had killed herself after Arizona reporter Kevin Elston investigated the case.
The army refused to say what interrogation she objected to, and maintain that all documents relating to methods used at Tal-Afar have been destroyed.

IRAQ IS GOING DOWN THE DRAIN. COUNT THE NUMBER OF ATTACKS SINCE JANUARY 1
There is such an increase in attacks in Iraq that no longer is it safe for Iraqi civilians to walk the streets of Baghdad and other Iraqi cities.
The much heralded "surge" was a Bush administration myth to begin with and now with the increased attacks it is apparent nothing was really gained by the "surge."
The following is a list of attacks in Iraq since January 1, 2009:
Major attacks in Iraq since Jan. 1, when a new U.S.-Iraqi security pact took effect:
http://www.kansascity.com/451/story/1159893.html
- April 24 - Back-to-back suicide bombers strike near Shiite shrine in Baghdad, killing 60.
- April 23 - Baghdad suicide bomber hits Iraqis collecting humanitarian aid, killing 31.
- April 23 - Suicide bomber strikes restaurant north of Baghdad in Muqdadiyah, killing 57.
- April 6 - Series of bombings within four hours in Baghdad kill 37 people.
- March 26 - Car bomb tears through market in Shiite area in east Baghdad, killing 20.
- March 23 - Suicide bomber strikes Kurdish funeral north of Baghdad in Jalula, killing 27.
- March 10 - Suicide bomber targets tribal leaders at market in Abu Ghraib, killing 33.
- March 8 - Suicide bomber strikes police academy in Baghdad, killing at least 30.
- March 5 - Car bomb tears through livestock market in Hillah, killing 13.

LIZ CHENEY TELLS NORAH O'DONNELL THAT NAVY SEALS TRAINING IS SAME TORTURE METHODS USED ON DETAINEES AT GITMO (MSNBC VIDEO)
Liz Cheney,daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, told Norah O'Donnell of MSNBC that U.S. Navy Seals go through the same kind of tourture training that was been done to the detainees at GITMO who were subjected to torture.
Cheney is totally wrong. Nobody in the U.S. Navy Seals goes through training that is equal to torture described in the recent Senate Intelligence Committee report.
In fact, nobody in the military goes through any kind of training that is the equivalent of the torture used on detainees.
I went through eight weeks of infantry training and eight weeks of combat engineer training in the U.S. Army and we never were subjected to ANYTHING that would come close to torture.

BREAKING NEWS: CHILDREN TRAINED AS SUICIDE BOMBERS IN IRAQ
Children trained as suicide bombers in Iraq
James Hider, Baghdad April 22, 2009
Article from: The Australian
IRAQI security forces have arrested four children who were allegedly part of a group of youngsters groomed by al-Qa'ida to become suicide bombers, an Iraqi army general said.
The children, who were detained in a village near the northern city of Kirkuk, were part of a cell known as the "Birds of Paradise" and were trained to avoid detection as they carried out attacks, security officials said yesterday.
"Special forces units have arrested an organisation of children consisting of four individuals under the age of 14 who call themselves the Birds of Paradise," said General Abdelamir al-Zaidi, commander of the Iraqi army division in Kirkuk.
"The group relies on children and is connected to al-Qa'ida. It works to recruit children and young people to carry out suicide attacks and to aid the terrorist groups in detonating roadside bombs."
Al-Qa'ida groups have previously used Iraqi children to carry out attacks on US and Iraqi security forces, even deploying them as a cover to sneak a car bomb past a Baghdad checkpoint before detonating the device with the youngsters still inside.

CHILDREN: THE INNOCENT VICTIMS OF WAR: THIS IS WHY IRAQI PEOPLE WANT U.S. TROOPS OUT OF THEIR COUNTRY (GRAPHIC VIDEO)
The military calls it "collateral damage," but no matter what the military calls it the innocent victims of the Iraq and Afghanistan war are the children of these two countries caught in the middle of two conflicts that appear to have no end. Is it any wonder why the people of Iraq and Afghanistan want U.S. troops to leave their country? "The Surge" was a myth cooked up by the Bush White House and the Pentagon to make it appear like U.S. troops brought peace to Iraq. Ask yourself this. If "The Surge" was so successful how come we never read or saw video of how many Al Queda or insurgents U.S. troops killed or captured? The answer is there was nothing to report because U.S. troops were used like guards after the Sunni Awakening did all the dirty work of ridding the various Iraq provinces of the enemy. This is a very graphic video and watch with caution.

HOW U.S. NAVY SEALS KILLED THE PIRATES (MUST SEE VIDEO)
CNN reports on how the U.S. Navy Seals took out the three Somali pirates who were holding Capt. Richard Phillips hostage in a small lifeboat. What REALLY took place differs from reports by FOX NEWS and BILL O'REILLY who claimed the Navy Seals were in the water. They were on the fantail of the U.S. destroyer hidden from the view of the pirates. It never ceases to amaze this veteran reporter how so many people can be misled by the sloppy reporting of FOX NEWS. Don't they know by now that FOX NEWS is NOT a news organization but a mouthpiece for the Republican Party?

FIRST VIDEO OF RESCUE OF CAPT PHILLIPS FROM SOMALI PIRATES (LARRY KING, CNN VIDEO)
We are going to set the record straight because FOX NEWS as usual hasn't got a clue what happened in the rescue of Capt. Richard Phillips by U.S. Navy Seal Snipers. FOX NEWS' BILL O'REILLY said the Navy Seal Snipers were bobbing around in the water. No they weren't. They were on fantail of a U.S. Navy ship about 100 yards from the small lifeboat that Capt. Phillips was being held hostage by the pirates. The Navy Seal Snipers were hidden from view of the Somali pirates. Also, FOX NEWS had claimed President Obama would NEVER tackle a tough hostage situation like what was unfolding off the coast of Somali.
Here is the TRUTH of what happened:
President Barack Obama issues Standing Orders and The U.S. Navy SEALs execute a direct action by SEAL sniper elements to rescue Captain Richard Phillips From Somali Pirates.

5 U.S. SOLDIERS KILLED IN IRAQ
Iraqi truck bombing kills 5 U.S. soldiers
2 Iraqi police also killed in attack in the northern city of Mosul, military says
The Associated Press
URL: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/30151488/
BAGHDAD - The U.S. military says five American soldiers were among seven people killed in a suicide truck bombing in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul.
A military statement says two Iraqi policemen were also killed. A sixth U.S. soldier was wounded in the blast along with 17 Iraqi policemen.
The explosion took place when the bomber rammed into a barrier outside the Iraqi police headquarters in southwestern Mosul on Friday morning.
The U.S. military says two suspects have been detained.
Mosul is the last urban stronghold of al-Qaida in Iraq. Friday's blast is the largest single loss of American life in Iraq in recent months.
The names of the deceased American troops are being withheld pending notification of families.

However, Obama did get to meet with troops at Camp Victory in Baghdad and was roundly applauded when he spoke to the troops.

IRAQ TEETERS ON THE BRINK OF COLLAPSE
A brief tally of the last several days gives an idea of the situation in Iraq:
Sunday, April 5: nine Iraqis killed, 30 wounded
Saturday, April 4: one US marine, two Iraqis killed; eight Iraqis wounded
Friday, April 3: one US soldier, five Iraqis killed; 17 Iraqis wounded
Thursday, April 2: nine Iraqis killed, 22 wounded
Wednesday, April 1: one US soldier, 15 Iraqis killed; 25 Iraqis wounded
At the height of the sectarian violence that ravaged Iraq between early 2006 and mid-2007, some days found 300 Iraqis being killed. Right now, Iraq is teetering on the brink of returning to that level of bloodletting.

IS IRAQ FALLING APART? FOUR CAR BOMBS GO OFF IN BAGHDAD
FOX NEWS and the right wing pundits can talk until they are blue in the face about how "the surge" has been such a success and the Iraq war has been "won," but the latest wave of violence in Baghdad and other cities in Iraq prove otherwise.
Four car bombs kill 10 in Baghdad

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Four car bombs exploded across the Iraqi capital on Monday, killing 10 people and wounding dozens, police said.
A car bomb parked in a busy central Baghdad street next to a group of casual laborers queuing for work killed five people and wounded 15, police said.
Two others were parked in two popular markets. One in Husseiniya, on Baghdad's northern outskirts, killed two people and wounded eight. Another in the eastern Sadr City slum killed one person and injured at least five.
A fourth bomb in east Baghdad targeting the convoy of an Interior Ministry official killed two bystanders.
Violence has fallen dramatically in Iraq to levels not seen since late 2003, but militants still retain the ability to carry out large scale bomb attacks, especially in the capital and the northern provinces of Diyala and Nineveh.
Twenty people were killed by a car bomb in north Baghdad's district Shaab district on March 26.
