Hmmm, NWO barks "Kill each other!!!"....Military says "NO" and stands down!

It's about time.........

True Peace is in the PEOPLE and not from following the orders of the NWO elite!!!

Only the people can save the people......Just say NO to the NWO!!

S.I.N. ~ Strenght In Numbers

6.5 Billion People ~ Less than 200 of them

VERY INTERESTING - Soldiers in Revolt in Iraq

posted by: John



It seems that both British and American soldiers in Iraq themselves have decided that enough is enough, according to this article:

Soldiers in silent revolt in Iraq

British troops say ‘get us out of here’ and US soldiers’ ‘fake patrols’

British and US troops are turning away from confronting the Iraqi resistance – despite the rhetoric from Gordon Brown

and George Bush that they are “winning” the war.

Revelations from both British and US troops show that morale has plummeted and that soldiers are avoiding all encounters with anti-occupation forces.

A senior British commander told the Sunday Telegraph that since they withdrew from Basra this summer they have not once returned to the city. They patrol around their base at the airport, with the occasional forays to the Iranian border.

He admitted that the military and the resistance have struck a deal not to attack each other. The oil rich southern Iraqi city is now in the hands of rival resistance organisations.

One senior British officer said, “We are tired of firing at people. We would prefer to find a political accommodation.”

Other soldiers said they saw little point in fighting on. One captain admitted, “If we went into the city every night, we would still be doing it in ten years’ time.

“There is nothing the military can do any more without the backing of politicians, and no politician wants to touch Iraq with a barge pole. Having the military out here without political backing is pointless.”

If the British military is “officially” pulling back from the war, US troops are doing so unofficially.

In an echo of the Vietnam War, US troops told independent journalist Dahr Jamail that they run fake patrols and send false reports as part of a strategy of “search and avoid”.

One soldier, who had recently returned from Iraq, admitted, “Morale was incredibly low. Most men in my platoon in Iraq were just in from combat tours in Afghanistan.

“We were hit by so many roadside bombs we became incredibly demoralised, so we decided the only way we wouldn’t be blown up was to avoid driving around all the time.

“So we would go find an open field and park. Then we would call our base every hour to tell them we were searching for weapons caches in the fields and doing weapons patrols and everything was going fine.

“All our enlisted people became very ­disenchanted with our chain of command.”

Another soldier said, “We’d go to the end of our patrol route and set up on top of a bridge and use it as an over-watch position. We would just sit with our binoculars and observe rather than sweep. We’d call in radio checks every hour and say we were doing sweeps.”

“It was a common tactic, a lot of people did that. We’d just hang out, listen to music, smoke cigarettes and pretend.”

A third soldier told Jamail, “One of my buddies is in Baghdad right now and we email all the time. He just told me that nearly each day they pull into a parking lot, drink soda, and shoot at the cans.

“They pay Iraqi kids to bring them things and spread the word that they are not doing anything and to please just leave them alone.”

Detta ar goda nyheter!
Denna typ av moraliskt forfall ar ochsa orsaken till att NWO aldrig kan kriga till sig makten och behalla den, eftersom fortryck starker viljan hos de fortryckta, men fortryckarna starks inte av langvariga krigstillstand och hot, eftersom de vet att de gor fel, de demoraliseras och strider samre, vilket gynnar motstandsrorelsen, som far storre segrar, och battre sjalvfortroende.

Heja IRAQ!! Har dom bara tillrackligt med TID sa kommer dom sparka ut den "Store Satan" NWO/Usa

Live From Baghdad


From: ^Tip of the Berg^
Date: Nov 2, 2007 8:37 AM


I am a Soldier in the united States army and I would like to share with you the reality of the war in Iraq. I have been living and working in Baghdad for the past year and have seen and done things that are unimaginable to most people. I intended on going to collage last year but instead I shipped straight here only six months after I completed basic training. I have spent the past year of my life convoying through the streets of Baghdad, and have saved a good bit of money, but it has cost me. I am a changed man. I have become hardened. I almost feel like a zombie at times.
I feel fortunate that I got assigned to one of the more comfortable army installations in Iraq. While some guys are sleeping in tents without showers, hot chow, and many other basic comforts, I stay in a two man trailer with a/c and hot showers and have two chow halls to pick from that would rival the best ones at bases back home. I have had a lot of experiences over this year, and the situation has not changed one bit. I feel like I am leaving a sinking ship. The only thing that has changed is that more trailers have had to be added for the surge of troops that have come in. Oh, and our laundry now takes 72 hours to get done.
When I'm not convoying through Baghdad, a lot of times I'm supervising Iraqi laborers that do all the dirty work around the base to keep it up and running. Every single one has been deeply affected by the war. All of them know someone who has been killed or kidnapped, whether a family member or a friend. It's a daily occurrence, and they feel helpless. When asked why they don't just leave they'll tell you how much they wish they could. Only the wealthy can afford to leave Iraq and I'm willing to bet most that had them means have done so. The rest are trapped.
A common misconception about this war is that the Iraqi people are in better shape now than they were under Saddam's rule. Ask any of them about that and the answer you'll get is quite the opposite for many reasons. For instance now that there is a constant war going on in their streets there is no longer any safety or security for them and their families. Because of the war they are now without a reliable power grid, clean water, and ironically there are fuel shortages. I'm not saying everything was perfect under Saddam's rule but the Iraqi's quality of life was much better than it is now.
Every day, the Iraqis risk their lives to come to work because they have no choice. The average salary is $300 a month, and many of them are supporting large families. Some of the Iraqis I've worked with just live in the building we work in rather than risk going home every day. The building usually has electricity, which means there is air conditioning. In Baghdad there is usually one hour of electricity a day and hardly any water. People pitch in and buy a generator and get just enough electricity out of it to have the ceiling fan and refrigerator run.
Most Iraqis come to work by bus since there is a shortage of gasoline in Baghdad. People have to wait in line overnight in order to get gas for their cars. I wonder how we in America would react if we had even one hour without electricity or water and had to wait in a line for fuel. For us on the base, getting gas is a breeze. We just drive up to one of the many gas depots and fill our cars up. I can't figure out how we have such easy access to gasoline and the Iraqis have none.
When the bridge collapsed in Minneapolis. Yes, it was a terrible tragedy, but to the Iraqis that is nothing. Our media spent hours talking about how the bridge collapsed and how people were coping with the grief. The authorities immediately brought in grief counselors. There aren't enough grief counselors in the world to come to Baghdad and ask the Iraqis how they are coping. But coping they are.
Will I get killed or kidnapped or suffer some other horrible tragedy? Most Iraqis feel that they will indeed be killed, whether by the Sunni militia, the Shiite militia, the American Army or a car bomb. They live in constant fear. Could you imagine having to live like that? And why are they suffering so terribly? Because we are giving them freedom. Freedom is something that I fear the Iraqis will not have any time in the near future.
It is with a heavy heart that I leave behind my Iraqi friends. Their lives are absolutely horrible, but they have to keep moving every day to survive. Everyday, as they leave for home, I always wonder if it will be the last time I see them. We have made a mess of Iraq, and the Iraqis, who just happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, are the ones that are paying the price.
Our troops are losing morale. We know we are fighting a war that will never end. I feel that the ship will eventually sink and when is does all the Iraqis that have helped us including the pitiful Iraqi government and police force we have tried to form are doomed, and they know it. Upon our departure from Iraq the Sunni and Shiite civil war will get even more out of control than it is now, and one will eventually take power leaving every Iraqi that stood for the U.S. cause dead. We have caused the most terrible suffering for a people that just want a day when they can leave their house without the fear of being kidnapped or killed. For the Iraqis, freedom certainly isn't free: They are paying a heavy price for it.
