Al-Fallujah ミ ar-Ramadi.
Wednesday’s fighting in al-Fallujah.
In a dispatch posted at 12:35am Thursday, Mafkarat al-Islam reported that fighting in the city came to a halt at 8pm Wednesday night. Dozens of US troops were reported killed and wounded.
A member of the Counsultative Council of the Mujahideen of al-Fallujah and the official spokesman for the committee, Abu As‘ad ad-Dulaymi, told Mafkarat al-Islam that the final count was 16 US vehicles set ablaze, including nine armored vehicles, four Humvees and three giant Abrams tanks. More than 60 US troops were killed, he said and 13 US fire arms were seized as well as a number of suits of body armor and helmets.
Abu As‘ad ad-Dulaymi said that 24 Resistance fighters were killed in the day’s fighting, including eight fraternal Arab fighters from Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Syria, and Yemen. The US troops in the end, ran from the battle field he said, “running, not trotting,.may God be praised.”
As to the last three days during which news from al-Fallujah was cut off, the Shaykh said that “there were two battles in which we lost mane of our heroic fighters, but we took out of them the enemy soldiers double the number of men we lost. They lost 140 US soldiers during the past three days.”
A correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam went into the village of al-Azraqiyah west of al-Fallujah on Wednesday and said that for the first time in nearly a month prayers were said in the al-Faruq Mosque in the al-Andalus neighborhood, and in the al-Furqan Mosque in the al-Jumhuriyah neighborhood. He said that he personally saw three Resistance fighters attack a US command post in the al-Jaghifi neighborhood where there were about 11 US soldiers and 10 puppet “national guards.” Three Resistance fighters, one carrying a BKC machine gun and the other two armed with RPG7s as well as hand grenades opened fire on the US command post, killing three American troops and three puppet guards. At that point dozens of US troops massed three together with members of the puppet guards and clashed with the three Resistance fighters. The battle lasted almost half an hour, from 12 noon until 12:30pm local time when the Resistance fighters ran out of ammunition and withdrew from the place in the blink of an eye.
One of the amazing things that the correspondent witnessed during that battle was that whenever the three Resistance fighters advanced in any direction, the Americans and their puppet “national guards” fled in the opposite direction, showing the extent to which the American troops in al-Fallujah have been beset by fear and panic when they encounter the Resistance forces.
New American outrage: US forces try to use refugee families as human shields as they try to storm the Resistance-held part of the city. Heavy fighting rages.
In a dispatch posted at 6:40pm Wednesday evening, Mecca time (7:40pm local time), Mafkarat al-Islam reported that US forces at 4pm Wednesday had launched an attack attempting to break into the an-Nazal neighborhood in the southern, Resistance-held part of al-Fallujah. The Americans attempted to make use of the return of refugees to the city as cover for their assault, driving a number of refugee families ahead of them into the neighborhood as human shields.
The families became aware that they were being used as pawns in the Americans’ game after the Resistance forces called out to them, telling them to go back because the Americans were using them as bait in an attempt to storm the neighborhood. The families therefore dispersed, as the US forces heard the Resistance calls as well, and understood that their little game was up. The correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam in the city commented, however that had it not been for the presence of journalists and members of the Iraqi Red Crescent on the scene, the American troops would have simply forced the families to go on. This they were unwilling to do in the presence of witnesses.
Afterwards, US forces attempted to break into an-Nazal neighborhood making use of fighter bomber air support. The Resistance stood up to them, however, sparking a battle between themselves and the American attackers after the US forces got to al-Kubaysat Street, the first major street in the an-Nazal neighborhood. There more than 200 Resistance fighters all along the al-Kubaysat Street as well as Shaykh Khalil al-Fayyad Street attacked the US troops. The correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported that the battle was still under way when he filed his dispatch.
At the time of the report, at least seven US military vehicles had been destroyed in the fighting and about 25 American troops killed.
The Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent also reported that the Resistance was able to recover the bodies of 14 Arab Resistance fighters who had been killed in the fighting, including that of 55-year old Shaykh al-Jalil Abu Bakr al-Hijazi from the Hijaz area where Mecca and al-Madinah are located. He fell on the battlefield after single-handedly holding back the advance of an entire American column for 15 minutes, until relief fighters were able to move up to relieve him. He was found dead, his beard dyed red with blood.
US storms city of al-Habbaniyah raiding houses and making arrests early Wednesday morning.
Early on Wednesday morning, US forces surrounded the city of al-Habbaniyah, west of Baghdad near al-Fallujah and raided numerous houses in the city.
On Tuesday, the Resistance inflicted heavy losses on the American invaders when it pounded their al-Hadbah military camp, used an airstrip for American fighter-bombers and helicopters, with about 33 rockets of various types. Three US helicopters were destroyed in an attempt to put out the raging fires started by the rocket barrage. Witnesses reported that the rocket attack struck fuel supply tanks that burned for a long time.
Eyewitnesses told Mafkarat al-Islam that US forces stormed into the city and began raiding and searching homes. No fighting was reported at the time when the Americans burst into the city.
US forces prevented the residents of al-Habbaniyah from entering or leaving the city. They arrested several men, including some elderly individuals.

Smoke and flame can be seen coming from the wreckage of the US vehicle.

When nothing happened, they attempted to storm the home from four sides at once. At that point the Resistance fighters blew up the building with themselves inside, completely destroying the house and four other neighboring houses as well. Yet another four houses were severely damaged by the force of the enormous blast.

As-Samawah.
Puppet policemen refuse orders to go to al-Fallujah: “going there means death.”
The correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam in as-Samawah, 270km south of Baghdad reported that more than 30 members of the puppet police force have refused an American order to proceed to al-Fallujah to serve the US occupation there for three months. A number of puppet police officers told Mafkarat al-Islam that going to al-Fallujah means going to their death, and they threatened to quit work in the puppet police force if the American occupation and its puppet regime insisted on their going there.
US forces and the American-installed puppet regime tried to get the former al-Fallujah police force to return to work in the city after the American assault on al-Fallujah, but they refused to cooperate with the occupation. The US has, as a result, been compelled to try to round up puppet police from elsewhere in the country, bringing some 800 puppet forces from Baghdad, al-Basrah, and Ba‘qubah. Of the puppet forces, 200 fled and were captured by US forces and are now being held prisoner on an American base.
Elsewhere in Iraq. . . .
US to use Kuwaiti ports to supply men and materiel to Iraq, because Resistance activity in Iraq precludes use of Iraqi ports.
The US military occupation in Iraq has asked Kuwait to allow the use of Kuwaiti ports to bring in and send out US troops and military equipment. The Kuwaiti newspaper ar-Ra’y al-‘Amm reported that Dr. Sabah Jabir al-‘Ali, the General Director of the Kuwaiti Port Authority had said that the Americans had asked to use Kuwait ports for the exchange of troops and equipment in Iraq. The General Director said that the US forces were planning to use Iraqi ports to bring in their troops and equipment, but the rising intensity of Resistance attacks is now preventing that.
It was from Kuwait that US forces set off to invade Iraq, and Kuwait also plays host to a permanent US occupation force.
Ramsey Clark joins Saddam Hussein defense team, denounces tribunal as a “US creation.”
The German DPA news agency reported Wednesday that former US attorney general Ramsey Clark has announced he had joined the legal team seeking to defend deposed Iraqi President Saddam Hussein before a special Iraqi court.
Clark dubbed the tribunal a “US creation” that lacks the international standards of independence and impartiality. Speaking at a press conference, Clark who was attorney general under President Lyndon Johnson from 1967 to 1969, said he was giving priority to having a meeting with the former Iraqi leader. He said his decision to join Saddam's defense panel stemmed from the “inhuman pictures” released upon his capture a year ago, his subsequent detention in “complete isolation,” depriving him of his right to a fair trial before “an impartial and independent court.”
Australian warship to help protect US theft of Iraqi oil.
On Tuesday, the Australian warship HMAS Darwin left its her home port, Fleet Base West at Garden Island, in western Australia bound for the Arabian Gulf. The Australian media reported that HMAS Darwin’s commanding officer William Martin and 220 crew will replace HMAS Adelaide in service to the US occupation of Iraq.
On hand for the sendoff was Australian Defence Minister Robert Hill, who said HMAS Darwin’s contribution would include what he called the protection of American-controlled Iraqi offshore export oil terminals and also the monitoring, intercepting, and boarding of any vessels suspected of “illegally” (i.e., outside of American control) trafficking oil.
Australia is an American satellite country that has contributed some 850 troops to the service of the US occupation of Iraq.
Polish former hostage tells AP her greatest fear was US “rescue attempt.”
A Polish woman held hostage in Iraq for nearly a month told the American Associated Press (AP) that she was terrified of being rescued by US troops because she believed any military-style raid would have ended in large-scale bloodshed.
Teresa Borcz Khalifa, a 54-year-old Pole released unharmed last month after Polish authorities waged diplomatic efforts to free her, recalled how her Islamic kidnappers reached for grenades whenever there was a knock at the door.
“Whenever I heard a helicopter go past I hoped it wasn’t Americans who found me and hoped to rescue me,” Borcz Khalifa said in an interview with The Associated Press at her home in Krakow, Poland. “I would have died, my kidnappers would have died, everyone in the helicopters would have died, and so would all of the neighbors.”
Borcz Khalifa, who is divorced from an Iraqi and had lived in Baghdad for 27 years, said she doesn’t know exactly why she was freed, but learned after her return to Poland that her country's ambassador and other authorities in Iraq made extensive diplomatic efforts on her behalf. Twenty days into her captivity, her kidnappers simply drove to a Baghdad street where they pushed her out of their car and sped off. Other western countries refuse to respond to Resistance organizations or their demands in any way, and captives from their countries are frequently found dead.
She said that shortly before her release, the kidnappers acted nervous and made her cover herself completely in black clothing, but gave no explanation.
“I don't know anything else because in fact they (Polish officials) didn't tell me how they freed me,” said Borcz Khalifai. “And even if I knew, I wouldn't say anything because it could risk the life of other hostages.”
She said the sound of traffic and military planes flying overhead made her certain she was being held in Baghdad although she couldn’t say what neighborhood.
Borcz Khalifa recalled her captors as deeply religious Muslims who prayed five times a day, fasted during the holy month of Ramadan and mostly treated her with politeness and respect. After they seized her from her home on October 28, they only threatened her with guns during the recording of two videotapes that were broadcast by al-Jazeera television.
The recordings showed the group, which called itself the Salafi Brigades of Abu Bakr as-Siddiq, demanding that Poland withdraw its 2,400 soldiers from Iraq and exert its influence on Washington to secure the release of all Iraqi female prisoners held by the Americans.
