Nazi-style revenge killings

Samuel Fuller | 19.10.2005 05:11

Blair and Bush have now started revenge killings of civilians in Iraq.

BLAIR'S REVENGE KILLINGS

The nazis did it in France and now we are doing it.

5 US troops were killed in near Ramadi on Sunday and the civilians gathered around their burnt-out truck were bombed from the air.

When the survivors ran into a nearby house they were also bombed.

These civilians were mostly children.

This Nazis trick of taking reprisals on civilians is a war crime.

Blame the terrorist insurgents!

Blame the escalating violence, death and destruction on the terrorist insurgents who for the past two and a half years have been trying to destroy their own country and turn it back into a terrorist state like it was under Saddam!

It is totally pathetic comparing Bush and Blair to the Nazis! There is no similarity at all. On the contrary when did Hitler ever liberate countries from despotic, cruel, evil murderous dictators like Saddam Hussein?

The anti-war movement is also now very much in the minority as the low turn out of around 8,000 at last months anti-Iraq war demo in central London proved. Most sensible people now know that the continuing violence in Iraq is purely the fault of the terrorist insurgents who often terget their own people like when they murdered one thousand fellow Iraqis at a muslim religous festival a few months back by spreading rumours of suicide bombers. Yet on indymedia no one have ev er condemned the terrorist insurgents of Iraq, most of whom are foreign terrorists from neighbouring countries.

Yes, I know, 2+2 = 3. That is the reasoning of Voice of Reason. Apply named in newspeak style to cover up the actual lack of reasoning going on behind the ridiculous name. Do me a favour and fuck off back to your little hole.

In answer to Voice of Reason, the Nazi government and its propaganda machine portrayed the invasions of Czechoslovakia, Austria and Poland as 'liberation'. One could equally point out that Hitler's rise to power was fuelled by hysteria over 'terrorism', culminating in the Enabling Act of 1933. Blair's new Anti-Terrorism Bill is wholly comparible to Germany's tragedy.

How can you defend a war of aggression built on lies? Even if the Blair regime intended to 'liberate' Iraq (white man's burden and all that), does this justify the complete subversion of British parliamentary democracy?

Iraqis Say Civilians Killed in U.S. Raids
Military Asserts Fatalities in West Were Insurgents

By Ellen Knickmeyer

BAGHDAD, Oct. 17 -- A U.S. fighter jet bombed a crowd gathered around a burned Humvee on the edge of a provincial capital in western Iraq, killing 25 people, including 18 children, hospital officials and family members said Monday. The military said the Sunday raid targeted insurgents planting a bomb for new attacks.

In all, residents and hospital workers said, 39 civilians and at least 13 armed insurgents were killed in a day of U.S. airstrikes in Ramadi, the capital of Anbar province, a Sunni Arab region with a heavy insurgent presence.

This is hardly news

19.10.2005 12:51

This isn't really news is it? The fact that some Iraqi civilians have been killed by US forces ain't exactly ground breaking stuff, sorry to be flippant but this sort of shit happens in wars all the time - to say that Blair is ordering Nazi style revenge killings is frankly a bit crap - he won't have done anything of the sort because he doesn't need to!
Its what soldiers do all the time. Its called war. It sucks, which is why we must oppose wars. Forget all the "Nazi" conspiracy crap its detracting and only gives power to those who are in favour of the Iraq war - cos your arguments are so easy to shoot down!

I can see everything in the Post piece except for any suggestion of a second bomb on the house once they had fled into it. Can someone give me a link for this, please.

Voice of Reason forgets that Blair and bush massacred thousands of civilians during the early months of the war. Voice also forgets that according to the nuremberg principles war is the ultimate evil as it contains all evil acts. And up to today the occupation has killed more civilians than the resistance. And don't forget the 100,000s of wounded, traumatised, and those 1,000s that have died because the occupation has failed to provide decent war or sufficient power supplies.
And does Voice forget that this is the anniversity of the attack against Falluja, where 200,000 people were ethnically cleansed from the city. And Yanks used civilians as target practise.
UK and USA are the 21st century Nazis.

Help, Please

The lack of a link to the second bomb, if it happened, is really making me wonder whether this is a bit of journalistic licence by the original poster. Can anyone help?

If they can't back it up, they're probably lying. Don't waste your time on them.
