Shaykh al-Baghdadi told the Iraqi National News Agency “these raids were carried out on the basis of instigation from ‘Abd al-‘Aziz al-Hakim. This is something everyone on the street in an-Najaf knows. It was because of our patriotic stand, in opposition to the occupation, to submission and our non-acceptance of the political system” that the occupation is trying to impose on the country.

Iraqi puppet police raided the home and office of Shaykh al-Baghdadi on Tuesday, 27 December following a religious opinion he had issued in which he called for jihad against the occupation and all those who cooperate with it.

Shaykh al-Baghdadi, like the Iraqi Resistance forces, opposes any participation in “elections” or the holding of political office under the occupation regime.

Hunting for news

Well in this day and age you certainly have to go out looking for real news, or rather, piece it together from the various bits of propaganda that pass for reporting from all sides.

I've recently been downloading and watching video made by iraqi insurgents showing their successful attacks on US military vehicles and checkpoints. Makes a refreshing change from mainstream coverage and is starkly different from the image of inept sucide attacks seemingly targetted at civilians.
