** Sheikh Dari Sends a Message to the Iraqis on the Anni-
versary of the Occupation
`
http://heyetnet.org/en/content/view/2765/1/

`
"The main problem is the occupation and its policy that
brought all calamities to us and opened all the evil doors;
therefore there will be no security and stability unless we
get rid of the occupation completely by all its faces [=
including its overt and covert puppets] as soon as possible.
`
This imposes us, dear brothers: to intensify our claim to
expel the occupation, to work with all legitimate means to
achieve this; to demonstrate against the occupation in all
towns, districts, villages and throughout Iraq to demand
the leave [= the voluntary or invountary end] of the occu-
pation.
`
On this occasion we should salute the brave Iraqi resist-
ance in its fifth year. The heroic Iraqi Resistance rea-
lized this truth from the beginning and did its religious,
national duty and [is] still doing [so]. The occupation
recognized that Iraq is not an easy prey; there are many
men and women who are ready to sacrifice themselves for
Iraq by everything [= by life itself]. We have to encour-
age and bless the resistance for its efforts. We have to
protect it from the calumnies of the enemies, [and] their
aids [=aides,] from disinformation, distortion and deforma-
tion on its reputation. We have to pray Allah Almighty to
send His mercy upon our martyrs who became our proud sym-
bols and crowns above our heads. We have to take care of
their families and sons."

This newsstory is unusual: it explains the ABCs.
`
1) "the Taliban are fighting to expel foreign forces and
bring down Afghanistan's Western-backed government."
`
THE AIM: GENUINE NOT FAKE INDEPENDENCE
`
2) "Their insurgency...includes attacks on reconstruction
and aid work that the [puppet] government and its allies
hope will win over the people and isolate the insurgent
leadership."
`
THIS IS ALL-OUT WAR

(AND HAS BEEN FROM THE VERY BEGINNING)

"It shall be the policy of [The Superpower] to regard any
nuclear attack upon Israel [its puppet] by Iran...as an
attack by Iran on [The Superpower], requiring a full re-
taliatory response upon Iran."
`
1) This chitchat implicitly recognizes that Iran has, and
has had for a long time, nuclear weapons.
`
2) This chitchat implicitly recognizes that Iran will nuke
The Superpower FIRST. Who cares about Puppet-israel?
