BRITISH UNDERCOVER OPERATIVES IN IRAQ

Zarqawi Eat Your Heart Out

Basra is relatively stable compared to central Iraq where violence involving insurgents, civilians and coalition forces is a daily routine. The city has rarely been a site of clashes between insurgents and coalition troops, nor is it a victim of regular terrorist attacks. This week, however, things changed, but not thanks to Zarqawi and his al-Qaeda ilk.

On Monday, two British soldiers were arrested and detained by Iraqi police in Basra. Within a matter of hours, the British military responded with overwhelming force, despite subsequent denials by the Ministry of Defence, which insisted that the two men had been retrieved solely through "negotiations."

British military officials, including Brigadier John Lorimer, told BBC News (9/20/05) that the British Army had stormed an Iraqi police station to locate the detainees. Ministry of Defence sources confirmed that "British vehicles" had attempted to "maintain a cordon" outside the police station.

After British Army tanks "flattened the wall" of the station, UK troops "broke into the police station to confirm the men were not there" and then "staged a rescue from a house in Basra", according a commanding officer familiar with the operation. Both men, British defence sources told the BBC's Richard Galpin in Baghdad, were "members of the SAS elite special forces." After their arrest, the soldiers were over to the local militia.

What had prompted this bizarre turn of events? Why had the Iraqi police forces, which normally work in close cooperation with coalition military forces, arrested two British SAS soldiers, and then handed them over to the local militia? A review of the initial on-the-ground reports leads to a clearer picture.

would do these things.

BTW: NPR mumbled a "failed attempt at infiltrating a radical Shiite sect" story and it was dropped.

are looking for.

You can tell how huge a story is by how quickly it is covered up.

activities in Iraq. Moreover, some of the cars used in the suicide bombings were found to have been stolen in the USA - just like the car bombing in Lebanon that killed Hariri.

There's just no end to the evils being committed by the Bush regime in order to justify the expansion of its evil presence in the Midle East and throughout the world. Planting of phony stories such as the stupid idea that it was Clinton or Crter who spied on Aericans is one thing. Planting bombs and phony evidence is quite another. Innocent civilians, and one former leader, have been killed because of Bush's criminal schemes.

But again,note how the controlled reich wing media chooses to ignore those truths.

'Axis of Evil.'

Junior wants to be a 'War President,' and his family and friends want to make war profits.

George W. Bush, Emperor of the Fascist States of America, appreciates your support of never ending wars for the Empire.

bombing in the Middle East? Do you have a link? Just asking...

Which sounds just as remarkable.

<snip>The Mehlis commission said it had developed evidence that the truck that may have carried the bomb was stolen in Japan and then shipped to Lebanon via the United Arab Emirates. It said that Japanese and Emirati authorities were assisting the probe.

understand. Makes you wonder what they were doing in Ireland then. ANd then the next week some American solders were caught doing the same thing.

Zarqawi seemed to have taken a holiday about the same time also. Probably just a big coincidence.

The War on Truth
Nafeez Ahmed’s first book on 9/11, The War on Freedom,
was acclaimed around the world for its meticulous compilation
of facts about the event. Published just a little over a half
year after the attacks, it was the first book to document the
inconsistencies and contradictions in the government’s official
version of what happened. This new book, The War on Truth,
doubles the data and adds extensive new material to his original argument,
including an analysis of the 9/11 Commission Report and wider
discussion of US policies toward al-Qaeda. For anyone who remains
uneasy about the alignment of reported facts and official narrative,
Ahmed’s new book is an invaluable resource.
