Al-Fallujah.
Message from inside al-Fallujah.
The following message was posted on the albasrah.net website on Tuesday night.
11PM, 16 November 2004.
Peace be on you and the mercy of God and His blessings!
We wish to inform you that a group of civilians are now located in a factory and are in very difficult straits. The Americans came to them on Sunday and gave them a little dry food. Those civilians asked them to turn the electricity back on. But the US troops took the electronic cards from the Yugoslavian-made electric power generator that powered the factory. They asked the Americans to allow them to transport the sick to the Jordanian Hospital, but the officer said that in an emergency the sick could walk. After that the besieged civilians only saw a few guards. Until today they have not been given permission to transport the sick. The civilians did take a car with wounded to the ash-Shihabi area behind the factory, but were met there by gunfire.
What is happening in al-Fallujah is a war of revenge against the civilians and it is more intense than what you are hearing on the news. The Americans are now only present in the western neighborhoods that they entered on the first days of the fighting. They did not get into the al-Jawlan, an-Nazal, or ash-Shuhada’ neighborhoods, or the industrial zone. They have blown up or bombarded with shells every mosque they got their hands on. They have done the same with every building and with apartment blocks. The civilian victims account for more than 90 percent of the total casualties, and they have been buried in mass graves. The American losses and the losses of the so-called national guard are many times what they declare. For this reason, they do not allow the news media to enter the city. The national guard has begun to rob houses, taking everything they can carry, and loading it on cars to haul it out of the city. May God suffice for us, for He is the best patron.
Our morale, God be praised, is very high. We have made them taste death in every lane and byway. They only control the main street and the neighborhood near the hospital near the entrance to the city on the road to ar-Ramadi.
We have a new battle plan that we are preparing. It has been presented to the commands of all the mujahideen.
God is greatest! Victory to the Mujahideen!
Statement from the Iraqi Baath Party on the Battle of al-Fallujah.
The Department for Political information and publication of the Iraqi branch of the Arab Socialist Baath Party issued a statement on Tuesday in which it said that the current Anglo-British offensive against al-Fallujah is a “premeditated criminal act of revenge against the heroic al-Fallujah in which the official Arab regimes and the Arab news media owned by the wardens of the oil fields of the occupation forces are taking part in accordance with a distribution of roles that have been imposed or agreed upon beforehand.”
Nevertheless, the heroic battle at al-Fallujah, the Baath Party said, would be an “example to be followed in Iraq, first, and then in Palestine.”
The Baath statement said that the Battle of al-Fallujah in which the fighters of the Baath Party were taking part in fighting formations of the Forces of Resistance and Liberation, and under the slogans of Resistance and jihad, and in which the military expertise of the Army of Iraq and the courageous Republican Guard were being used, “is a continuous and on-going battle, one that is not isolated.”
The US and the puppet regime in Baghdad hoped in vain to get political mileage out of al-Fallujah in the up-coming meeting of regional regimes with the United States in Sharm ash-Shaykh next week. But the continuous and comprehensive battle will lead instead to the exhaustion of the aggressor and the downfall of the puppet regime. It exposes the strategic disability of the occupation and will eventually be reflected inside the US on the question of the mobilization of forces.
The battle will compel the US to make difficult and harsh demands on Arab regimes, the Baath Party statement predicted, for the future of the political game it is playing in Iraq depends on the security of its puppet regime, and that regime has no security.
Just as the assault on al-Fallujah is a crime, so the Resistance to it has national and human legitimacy that demands that the Resistance proceed untrammeled and without restriction until the occupation has been routed and the puppet authority destroyed, the statement said.
Resistance holds 60 percent of al-Fallujah as Resistance organizations seek different routes to carry on the struggle.
A leader of one of the Resistance organizations in al-Fallujah confirmed to the Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent in the city that many of the Resistance organizations in the city have resolved to “disappear from view” in order to wage a war of attrition against the US forces inside and outside the city.
The Iraqi Resistance leader described to the Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent the tragic situation in the demolished city “which has become unbearable due to the large number of dead Iraqi civilians in the streets whose bodies are being eaten by dogs.”
He said that bodies of children shot dead by American snipers yesterday or the day before as they tried to cross the street, were also being devoured by the dogs. Neither the families nor the Resistance fighters are able to retrieve the remains of their mangled bodies because of the American snipers are still perched atop high buildings.
The commander described whole buildings that were totally burned with everyone inside.
“All such things,” he said, “have compelled some of the Resistance organizations to incline to taking up the method of war of attrition.”
The commander said that this decision was not unanimous among the Resistance organizations, some of which have opted to reduce the pressure they exert from within the heart of al-Fallujah, in view of the determination of the American forces to destroy the city and commit a wholesale slaughter of the inhabitants. Other Resistance organizations have resolved to continue fighting at the same pace as before.
The Resistance commander noted the contrast between the determination of the American forces to kill children, women, doctors, nurses, and civilians and the silence of the whole world in the face of such atrocities. No pressure has been brought to bear to save the civilians suspended in the city despite the unparalleled success that the Resistance has had in waging a street war against the invaders.
Some of the Resistance organizations in al-Fallujah have chosen what has been called the option of our brothers in Samarra’ who sought to reduce the pressure on their main support - after God - that is, the civilian population, by withdrawing to the suburbs of the city where the ferocity of their Resistance operations produced the first instance of mutiny and rejection of orders within the ranks of the American troops in Iraq.
The Commander repeated that this was not a unanimous decision, however, and he noted that there were many Resistance organizations, “that I don’t know anything about,” as he put it.
The commander concluded by saying with a confident smile, “Iraq will see what we are bringing about with our own hands . . . the victory of all of Iraq; an intifada that has grown too big to control.”
The Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent reported that there is a leadership of major Mujahid organizations in al-Fallujah that is still pursuing the fight as before. One of them is the group of Shaykh ‘Abdallah al-Janabi, the Chairman of the Consultative Council of the Mujahideen of al-Fallujah. According to Quds Press, Shaykh al-Janabi spoke today to a gathering of Resistance fighters defending the city, saying “the Mujahideen control firmly and completely 60 percent of the territory of al-Fallujah. The rest of the city is a battle zone where fighting is going on in fits and starts between the American aggressor forces and the Resistance that is defending al-Fallujah.”
Shaykh al-Janabi said that al-Fallujah Resistance fighters had used a captured American tank in their assault on US military positions and the operation accomplished its goals completely. He said that the Iraqi flag had been raise in official ceremonies over 12 positions regarded as battle zones.
The Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent in al-Fallujah commented that these positions of the different Resistance organizations in the city were not in fact contradictory or mutually exclusive. Past experience has shown, he wrote, that every Resistance group helps out the others despite their differences as to their ultimate aims. A proof of that can be seen in the meeting held last Tuesday that took place under a unified leadership.
The source of differences among the al-Fallujah Resistance organizations is the issue of the unarmed civilian population and what to do regarding them. Some organizations believe the best course is to continue to resist, particularly since other fronts of struggle against the US forces have now been opened elsewhere. But other groups believe that the civilians cannot bear the pressure of the siege any longer.
Another source of difference of opinion among the Resistance groups is that some believe it is necessary to open another big front to confront the aggressors on their rear lines, while other Resistance organizations fear that this could result in the complete fall of the city. Despite these differences of opinion, the coordination of the Resistance groups remains strong.
Quds Press reported on Tuesday that extremely fierce fighting was underway on Tuesday on the edges of the al-Jawlan neighborhood of al-Fallujah. Powerful explosions shook the area and could be heard throughout the city, though their exact cause was difficult to determine. Since early Tuesday morning US military aircraft prowled the skies over the city, strafing and rocketing what they regard as targets in numerous neighborhoods throughout the city. US snipers are deployed on the roofs of many tall buildings that over look the city, and they fire on anything that moves in the streets below.
Resistance pounds US Marines outside al-Fallujah with rocket barrages.
Iraqi Resistance forces carried out an intense rocket attack on concentrations of US Marines to the north, west, and south of al-Fallujah. The correspondent of Mafkarat al-Islam in the city reported that more than 31 powerful Tariq and Grad rockets were fired at the American troop concentrations in three areas outside the city.
The correspondent wrote that the rockets fired into the American Marines to the north of the city were launched from a branch of the Tigris River. The rockets that struck the US troop concentrations to the west and south of the city were launched from the direction of al-‘Amiriyah and some from mobile launchers mounted on vehicles.
Resistance field commander saw American troops use women and children as human shields atop their tanks.
A field commander in the Iraqi Resistance disclosed to a correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam in al-Fallujah what he called the “tragedy of the street fighting” by which he meant the way that the invading American troops were using Iraqi women and children as human shields.
The commander said that the tragedy began last Tuesday. Before that he had never seen it before, where the Americans were using women and children to shield their tanks. The commander commented: “this state is living through a type of savagery that history has never known before.”
The Resistance field commander said “we could hear the cries of the children and the women’s calls for help from atop a column of tanks that was driving along ath-Tharthar street last Tuesday. Some of our fighters closed their eyes in pain and wept at the sight.”
Resistance denies claims by ‘Allawi to have arrested a Resistance commander: “The commander is free, and ‘Allawi got his name wrong anyway.”
Iraqi Resistance sources meanwhile, denied claims by the US-installed “prime-minister” Iyyad ‘Allawi that the commander of the Army of Muhammad Resistance organization had been arrested.
According to Quds Press, the Resistance sources confirmed that the commander was free and present, but that he does not have the name cited by ‘Allawi. In fact all the Iraqi Resistance organizations confirmed that they have no members or fighters who have the name cited by ‘Allawi (i.e., “Muhammad YaSin Ahmad”) as having been arrested. The Resistance warned, however, that if the commander of the organization were captured, they would put the world on edge in order to free him from the US or puppet militia hands.
