Story Iraq: Dead Iraqis Yesterday, Part Two

Here is what I was able to find on the web:

"US air strikes, snipers kill 13 in Iraq" by Daily Times of Pakistan August 18, 2007

BAGHDAD: US aircraft and army snipers killed 13 gunmen north of Baghdad on Friday in fierce fighting that erupted as troops closed in to capture an Al Qaeda cell leader, the US military said. The military this week also launched an operation east of the town of Tarmiya on Friday targeting an Al Qaeda leader “who provides guidance to senior terrorist leaders”.

After being shot at from several buildings, troops called in air strikes that forced out four gunmen, including a woman wearing a ski mask, who were then killed by aircraft and sniper fire, the US military said. Nine more gunmen were killed during the fighting.

A military statement said:

Despite coalition forces’ appeals for the terrorists to send out women and children to be taken to safety, a boy was killed in a building with an armed terrorist who had engaged the ground forces.”

[You know what I think of our lying military, and all these deaths -- no matter WHO they are -- were BASED on a MONSTROUS LIE!!]


A day earlier US forces in Tarmiya attacked a mosque in the town after machine-gun and rocket-propelled grenade fire on their combat outpost killed one soldier.

Also on Friday, the death toll for the suicide truck bombings in two villages in northwestern Iraq that were home to members of the country’s minority Yazidi sect still remains unconfirmed with Iraqi and US officials giving widely differing figures.

The spokesman for US troops in northern Iraq, Lieutenant-Colonel Michael Donnelly, said US soldiers at the scene put the death toll at 212 while the governor of Nineveh province, Duraid Kashmoula, put the death toll at about 200. The health minister of neighbouring Kurdistan, Zairyan Othman, said 250 people had been killed and 250 wounded, while Dr Kifah Mohammed, head of Sinjar hospital, said 344 had died."

[Yup, we don't know.

Now everything about successful surges and Iranians and "Al--CIA-Duhs," but we CAN'T COUNT the DEAD!

So fucking typical.

Bye!

May be here tomorrow, may not be.

The scale of LIES and OMISSIONS is really starting to get to me!

FUCKING SICK of being LIED TO by my shitty MSM!!!!!]
