Al-Anbar Province.
Al-Fallujah.
Resistance car bomber blasts US column east of al-Falluajh at noon Wednesday, destroying American Humvee.
In a dispatch posted on its website Wednesday, Quds Press reported that an Iraqi Resistance fida’i fighter drove a car bomb into a US military column to the east of al-Fallujah − which is located 60km west of Baghdad − at noon on Wednesday.
A source in the puppet police told Quds Press that the Resistance car bomber blasted into a US column in the al-Khams Buyut area, 20km east of al-Fallujah, destroying an American vehicle. The Resistance fighter slammed into the rear of the American column, striking the last vehicle in the line, a Humvee, that was completely destroyed and was observed engulfed in flame.
After the attack, US forces closed the highway and surrounded the area, making a precise accounting of the nature and extent of US casualties impossible to obtain.
Resistance mortars blast US military base in al-Fallujah.
In a dispatch posted at pm Baghdad time midday Wednesday, the Association of Muslim Scholars of Iraq (AMSI) reported that the Iraqi Resistance fired five mortar rounds into the US “as-Simak” base in the middle of al-Fallujah, 60km west of Baghdad, on Wednesday morning.
The AMSI reported a source in the puppet police directorate as saying that the shells landed inside the American-occupied base, sending up plumes of smoke. No information on the nature or extent of American casualties was released.
AMSI noted that in addition to US forces, the “as-Simak” base is where the puppet police command for al-Fallujah, the al-Fallujah governorate building, and most puppet government security and technical departments are located in the city − none of the puppet regime agencies feeling save outside the US military compound.
Al-Walid Palestinian Refugee Camp.
Palestinian refugees in camp in al-Anbar Province report cases of poisoning from polluted water.
In a dispatch posted at 11:45am Baghdad time Wednesday morning, the Association of Muslim Scholars of Iraq (AMSI) reported that residents of the al-Walid Palestinian refugee camp in al-Anbar Province have confirmed that there have been several instances of poisoning, particularly of children and women, as a result of drinking polluted water. In all about 23 cases have been recorded.
The AMSI reported local residents as saying that the water is provided by the international organization known as ICS and residents of the camp are compelled to use it because there is no alternative. Residents have also complained because of the lack of medical care in the camp, the only medical doctor on site being a veterinarian.
At the present time 1,035 Palestinians are living in the camp, driven out of their homes in the rest of Iraq by the US occupation and the sectarian death squads that are working with the Americans. Demands by the refugees that the United Nations facilitate their departure from Iraq have not met with success.
Baghdad.
Sectarian killing spree continues: 29 more sectarian murder victims found dumped around Baghdad on Wednesday.
In a dispatch posted at 10:05pm Baghdad time Wednesday night, the Association of Muslim Scholars of Iraq (AMSI) reported that the Iraqi puppet police recovered the bodies of 29 more victims of sectarian murder that had been dumped in various parts of Baghdad.
The AMSI reported a source in the puppet police as saying that most of the bodies were bound and blindfolded and had been shot to death. The source said that 10 of the bodies were found in the Baghdad district of ar-Rusafah and the rest in al-Karakh.
Puppet regime, Shi‘i sectarian militias cooperate in operations to take prisoners from cells during the night to murder them and dump their bodies in the streets.
In a dispatch posted at 11:08pm Baghdad time Wednesday night, the Association of Muslim Scholars of Iraq (AMSI) reported that sources in the puppet security services had disclosed that by agreement with prison guards, Shi‘i sectarian militias come into several of the puppet regime’s prisons during the hours of the night and lead groups of prisoners away to be killed. Their bodies are then dumped in the streets and squares or in garbage dumps in Baghdad.
The AMSI reported the sources as saying that most of the murders are of prisoners detained in ar-Rusafah which is under the control of the US-installed puppet regime. Prisoners in the Sixth Prison in ar-Rusafah − the institution that is the most subject to these indiscriminate murders − have been on hunger strike for about a week to try to focus attention on their plight, preferring to starve to death in their cells than to be tortured to death by the Shi‘i sectarian militias.
The Sixth Prison of ar-Rusafah contains 14 cell blocks in which hundreds of prisoners are being held by the US-installed puppet regime. They have never been brought to court for any trial and are officially regarded as “missing persons.” The prisoners there were “arrested” by the Shi‘i sectarian dominated puppet police or simply abducted by the Shi‘i sectarian militias directly. Their whereabouts remain unknown until, after some time, their tortured bodies are found dumped somewhere in the US-occupied capital.
The Sixth Prison is one of 10 major prisons operating in the ar-Rusafah district alone, others being that of al-Jasiriyah, al-Qanat, and at-Tasfirat under the puppet sectarian militia-dominated “Iraqi Interior Ministry.”
The sources told AMSI that the people who actually dump the bodies in the streets are people who have permission from the US and puppet regime to be out at night when curfews are in force − i.e., from 11pm until daybreak. Such people either belong to the puppet police or puppet “Iraqi National Guard” or else are members of the Shi‘i sectarian militias which have the support of the American-installed Iraqi “government.”
The Shi‘i sectarian militias and the US-backed puppet regime that they dominate have been pursuing a policy of “cleansing” much of southern and central Iraq and Baghdad of Sunni residents, kidnapping, torturing, and murdering them, as a first step towards implementing Zionist and US plans to partition Iraq along sectarian and ethnic lines.
The idea of “the dissolution of Iraq into a Shi‘ite state, a Sunni state and the separation of the Kurdish part” was voiced by veteran Zionist military correspondent Ze’ev Schiff in Ha'aretz on 2 June 1982 and was a part of the divide-and-rule strategy laid out by Zionist writer Oded Yinon in his “Strategy for Israel in the 1980s,” published in Kivunim (Directions), A Journal for Judaism and Zionism, published by the World Zionist Organization in occupied Jerusalem in February 1982. (It was translated by the late anti-Zionist writer and activist Israel Shahak and is widely available.)
The idea of splitting the Shi‘ah in Iraq from the rest of the country was a cornerstone of the neo-Conservative strategy laid out in “A Clean Break” a paper drawn up by American Zionist government officials Richard Perle, Douglas Feith, David Wurmser, and Paul Wolfowitz in 1996 for the then Zionist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Then in 2000 the neo-Conservative Project for a New American Century wrote Rebuilding America’s Defenses on the basis of the “Clean Break.”
The American version of the strategy for a partition of Iraq appeared in the article “The Three-State Solution” published in The New York Times on 25 November 2003 by Leslie Gelb (President Emeritus of the US Council on Foreign Relations). The same idea was reiterated, this time with “bi-partisan support” in the article by Gelb and US Democratic Senator Joseph Biden in “Unity through Autonomy in Iraq,” in The New York Times on 1 May 2006.
Then on 8 October 2006 the London Sunday Times reported that the partition of Iraq along religious and ethnic lines was one of the suggestions that the Baker-Hamilton commission was advancing.
Resistance fighters kill head of Iraqi firm contracting with US occupation forces.
In a dispatch posted at 10:05pm Baghdad time Wednesday night, the Association of Muslim Scholars of Iraq (AMSI) reported that Iraqi Resistance fighters shot and killed the General Director of the Iraqi-American Contractors Company in northern Baghdad on Wednesday afternoon.
The AMSI reported a source in the puppet police as saying that Resistance men killed ‘Ali Kazim al-Hububi in the Baghdad district of as-Salikh.
Resistance strikes “Green Zone” with mortars Wednesday afternoon.
In a dispatch posted at 9:18pm Baghdad time Wednesday evening, the Association of Muslim Scholars of Iraq (AMSI) reported that Iraqi Resistance forces blasted the top-security area around the Republican Palace in Baghdad − the district that the Americans have dubbed the “Green Zone” with at least three mortar shells Wednesday afternoon.
The AMSI reported eyewitnesses as saying that at least three shells landed inside the “Green Zone,” but in keeping with their policy of concealing the nature and extent of their losses in Iraq, the US made no disclosures concerning casualties or damage.
Four US troops reported killed in Resistance bomb attack in southern Baghdad Tuesday evening.
In a dispatch posted at 8:04pm Baghdad time Wednesday afternoon, the Association of Muslim Scholars of Iraq (AMSI) reported that an Iraqi Resistance bomb exploded by a US Humvee in the al-Wahdah area of southern Baghdad on Tuesday evening, killing four American troops and wounding three civilians according to media sources.
The AMSI reported that the attack took place on the road linking Baghdad with the south of Iraq and that the Humvee was totally destroyed in the blast. The source said that four US troops were inside the burning vehicle and three Iraqi civilians who happened to be in the area were wounded.
After the attack, US troops rushed to close off the area and helicopter gun ships flew in to prowl the skies overhead.

In a dispatch posted at 9:18pm Baghdad time Wednesday evening, the Association of Muslim Scholars of Iraq (AMSI) reported that an Iraqi Resistance bomb exploded by a US column on the highway south of Baghdad in northern Babil Province on Wednesday.

In a dispatch posted at 12:03pm Baghdad time midday Wednesday, the Association of Muslim Scholars of Iraq (AMSI) reported that a bomb exploded by a US military patrol in the northeastern Baghdad district of al-Bunuk.

In a dispatch posted at 10:58am Baghdad time Wednesday morning, the Association of Muslim Scholars of Iraq (AMSI) reported that Latvia had officially announced that it had withdrawn its 121 occupation troops to Riga, ending its occupation of Iraq.
The AMSI noted that in May 2003 Latvia, a NATO satellite of the United States, sent 1,150 troops to take part in the American occupation of Iraq. The Latvians were stationed in the area of al-Hillah and ad-Diwaniyah to the south of Baghdad. According to officially acknowledged statistics, three Latvian occupation troops were killed in the course of their service to the US in Iraq.

Diyala Province.
Al-Miqdadiyah.
Brigades of the 1920 Revolution Resistance group refutes American media claims that it had joined forces with US in Diyala offensive: “we have no presence in Diyala Province at all.”
In a dispatch posted at 11:25pm Makkah time Wednesday night, Mafkarat al-Islam reported that the Iraqi Resistance organization the Brigades of the 1920 Revolution issued a statement in which they flatly denied claims made by The New York Times on 20 June and other media outfits that the their fighters were taking part with US occupation troops in the operations against Resistance forces in Diyala Province.
Mafkarat al-Islam reported that the 1920 Revolution Brigades had published a statement on the Internet rejecting claims that their organization was taking part in the American aggression. It also denied claims by those media outlets that the 1920 Revolution Brigades had been receiving arms from the Americans to facilitate their participation in the American offensive.
The Brigades of the 1920 Revolution declared that they have no presence in Diyala Province at the present time. “We declare to our mujhahid people and to everyone concerned with the situation in Iraq and to the whole world − and we are not revealing any secret when we say − that we, the Brigades of the 1920 Revolution, have absolutely no presence in Diyala Province at the present time.”
The Resistance organization said that the purpose of the claims being circulated by the American and puppet media was to sow trouble between the different organizations of the jihad.
It also issued a warning to any former members of the 1920 Brigades whose “sick souls” and fear of being shown as collaborators with the occupation and its puppet government and who therefore are claiming still to be members of the organization. The 1920 Brigades told such individuals: “We know them and we say to them, if you continue to use our name and bury your heads, we will totally expose you and there will be nothing from now on to stop us.”
The statement called on the Resistance organizations concerned with fighters in Diyala Province to state their position regarding the occupation forces’ offensive in order to forestall any attempts by the occupiers or their henchmen to shuffle the cards and sow difficulties between the resistance organizations operating in the field.
