TANKS APPEAR AT ANTI-WAR PROTEST IN WESTWOOD

LOS ANGELES, November 9, 2004 - At 7:50 PM armored tanks showed up at an anti-war protest in front of the federal building in Westwood.

The tanks circled the block twice, the second time parking themselves in the street and directly in front of the area where most of the protesters were gathered.

Enraged, some of the people attempted to block the tanks, but police quickly cleared the street.

The people continued to protest the presence of the tanks, but after about ten minutes the tanks drove off. It is unclear as to why the tanks were deployed to this location.

Illusionary demons blamed for US led Attack on Iraq, Falluja

09-11-2004 07:01 | Anti-militarism | London | World

The US propaganda monster the CIA Organisation with its doctrine of Pre-Emptive War on Sovereign nations like Iraq has not claimed responsibility for the latest propaganda media release or would they however, when you take into account the US, bombing, killing, torture, hostage taking and some of the bloodiest occupation in history they ought to fess up.

Civilian death toll to rise in Fallujah

The US led attack to occupy the Iraqi city of Fallujah will take time according to US terrorist Donald Rumsfeld but he said, "US-forces will see it through to the end. I think it's a tough business, and it's going to take time," he said.

Perhaps a little bit tougher Rumsfeld if you happen to live there?

Fallujah, the Hue of Iraq

US troops are following Gen. Westmoreland’s playbook, while the Iraqi insurgents seem to be following the playbook of Ho Chi Minh. We know the ending of both books.

State of emergency: Allawi 'killer of saints'

08-11-2004 00:19 | Anti-militarism | London | World

Allawi's order supposedly sustains the illusionary propaganda for some in the International Community (with rose coloured glasses). Who apparently are supposed to see this decision coming from an interim Iraqi Government perspective? However in reality it's clearly giving the US occupiers some illusionary "legitimate" right to impose curfews set up checkpoints, and search and detain subjects, preceding an "invasion" on any resistance.

Well Shitliffter without International Law the community won't come together especially with the Coalition of the Killing's war doctrine based on pre-emptive strikes on foreign nations and in light of the subsequent unauthorised occupations of those countries and in terms of the dead.

US Empire Votes For Pre-Emptive War!

Either that or the majority of the USA are simply barbarians who are prepared to kill, maim, mistreat and torture anyone who has the other two thirds of the oil and resources they need to maintain their status quo, greed, and ignorance towards the rest of the world including International law and human rights standards.
