Dr. Moro: Iraqi Resistance Succeeded and Spoiled Occupa-
tion Projects
`
"HEYET Net - Does this mean you believe that the resis-
tance has succeeded in foiling the U.S. project?
`
Dr. Moro - Yes. Iraqi Resistance succeeded in foiling
the U.S. project with all certainty [because] it caused
a coup [= an overthrow of servility] in the Islamic world
and gave the ummah new hope and the value it deserves..."
`
"if there was not the Iraqi resistance, the resistance
over the other countries in the multinational dimension
would not [have] spread. Because it gave hope to the
people for having broken the prestige of the United States
and preventing it from achieving its objectives in Iraq."

MPF [Myanmar Police Force] summons and warns NLD [National
League for Democracy] CEC [central executive committee]
members
`
"[NLD special] announcement used words
`
that could harm national security, stability and tranquil-
ity of the State;
`
that has led the people to misunderstand and mistrust the
government;
`
that discredited and undermined the friendship and coopera-
tion between the government and governments of other coun-
tries and NGOs including the United Nations;
`
and that were tantamount to insulting the people who had
freely voted in the referendum."
