18/09/04 - Irak - De désastres en désastres - Disaster and disaster...



John Pilger hears Blair echo Mussolini
New Statesman 20/09/04

"...The occupation of Iraq is presented as "a mess": a blundering, incompetent American military up against Islamic fanatics. In truth, the occupation is a systematic, murderous assault on a civilian population by a corrupt American officer class, given licence by its superiors in Washington. In May, the US marines used battle tanks and helicopter gunships to attack the slums of Fallujah. They admitted killing 600 people, a figure far greater than the total number of civilians killed by the "insurgents" during the past year. The generals were candid; this futile slaughter was an act of revenge for the killing of three US mercenaries. Sixty years earlier, the SS Das Reich division killed 600 French civilians at Oradour-sur-Glane as revenge for the kidnapping of a German officer by the resistance. Is there a difference?

These days, the Americans routinely fire missiles into Fallujah and other dense urban areas; they murder whole families. If the word terrorism has any modern application, it is this industrial state terrorism..."


'America is going backwards'
The Observer 19/09/04

"When Toni Morrison talks, America listens. And now that the Nobel prize-winner and friend of Oprah sees racism on the rise again, she's certainly not going to keep quiet..."

"...'Do I have a feeling of America going backwards? Sure. And I can't tell you how frightening it is - to see battles we thought we had already won... We're fighting to vote again. We fighting to protest. This is a major crisis. We're at the edge of a cliff. Do we fall off? Or do we step back?'..."


This Is Bush's Vietnam
New York Times 17/09/04

"...George W. Bush is now trapped as tightly in Iraq as Johnson was in Vietnam. The war is going badly. The president's own intelligence estimates are pessimistic. There is no plan to actually win the war in Iraq, and no willingness to concede defeat..."


U.S. study has a dark forecast for Iraq
International Herald Tribune 17/09/04

"A new classified National Intelligence Estimate reportedly lays out a dark view of security prospects for Iraq, including the possibility of civil war, and leading Democrats demanded Thursday that the Bush administration declassify the document and make it public immediately..."

Annan declares Iraq war illegal and warns of election credibility
Independant 16/09/04

"...Speaking on the BBC World Service, Mr Annan said the war was "not in conformity" with the UN Security Council or with the UN Charter.

Asked if there was legal authority for the war on Iraq, Mr Annan said: "I have stated clearly that it was not in conformity with the security council, with the UN charter."

He also said there could not be credible elections in Iraq next January if the current unrest continued..."


U.S. Intelligence Shows Pessimism on Iraq's Future
New York Times 16/09/04

"A classified National Intelligence Estimate prepared for President Bush in late July spells out a dark assessment of prospects for Iraq, government officials said Wednesday.

The estimate outlines three possibilities for Iraq through the end of 2005, with the worst case being developments that could lead to civil war, the officials said. The most favorable outcome described is an Iraq whose stability would remain tenuous in political, economic and security terms..."


From Bad to Worse in Iraq
IPS 16/09/04

"After weeks of hurricanes and controversies over swift boats in Vietnam and Texas and Alabama National Guard records, Iraq is beginning to creep back onto the front pages, and the news is uniformly bad..."


Far graver than Vietnam
Guardian 16/09/04

"...according to the US military's leading strategists and prominent retired generals, Bush's war is already lost..."


Iraq's bridge too far
Washington Times 15/09/04

"...Off the record conversations with intelligence chiefs in five major European countries -- each with multiple assets in Iraq -- showed remarkable agreement on these points:

...The insurgency has mushroomed from 5,000 in the months following the collapse of the Saddam Hussein regime to an estimated 20,000 today, which is still growing. Insurgents are targeting green Iraqi units and volunteers for training and some have already defected to the rebels...


Press Reports on U.S. Casualties: About 17,000 Short, UPI Says
Editor and Publisher 15/09/04

"Nearly 17,000 service members medically evacuated from Iraq and Afghanistan are absent from public Pentagon casualty reports commonly cited by newspapers, according to military data reviewed by United Press International. Most don't fit the definition of casualties, according to the Pentagon, but a veterans' advocate said they should all be counted.

The Pentagon has reported 1,019 dead and 7,245 wounded from Iraq.

The military has evacuated 16,765 individual service members from Iraq and Afghanistan for injuries and ailments not directly related to combat, according to the U.S. Transportation Command, which is responsible for the medical evacuations. Most are from Operation Iraqi Freedom..."


Things keep getting worse
Daily Koss 15/09/04

"...Weve lost this war. We've literally lost entire swaths of Iraqi territory to the insurgents. We've empowered Al Qaida and Islamist militants with new recruits and pictures of prison torture and rape to fuel their cause. We''ve stretched our military thin, hurt recruitment, made it impossible to respond to actual threats..."


Motive for Baghdad Helicopter Massacre a Mystery
Antiwar 15/09/04

"...Some residents of Haifa Street openly expressed their belief that "the Americans" were out for some kind of retribution on Sunday.

"This was revenge against civilians because the [resistance] hit one of the U.S. tanks," said a man on Haifa Street who would only refer to himself as Abu Mohammed..."


It's Worse Than You Think...
Back to Iraq 14/09/04

"Important parts of the country, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Richard Myers said, are controlled by rebels. Principal cities and major roads west and north of the capital are ruled by Sunni insurgents. Al-Sadr’s men launch uprisings at will across the wide Shi’ite belt, and even parts of Baghdad are no-go zones for U.S. troops and the frail forces of the interim Iraqi government. All this has helped make the peace much bloodier than the war: last month anti-U.S. attacks climbed to 87 a day, more than double the rate in 2003 and the first half of 2004. ..."


Surge in violence threatens Iraq elections, U.S. exit strategy
Knight Ridder 14/09/04

"The U.S. strategy to create a stable, democratic Iraq is in danger of failing, current and former U.S. officials say, and the anti-American insurgency is growing larger, more sophisticated and more violent..."

"...The violence increasingly appears to threaten nationwide elections planned for January, which are key to President Bush's hopes for reducing the number of U.S. troops, now 140,000, and making a graceful exit from Iraq..."
