"The US occupation has damaged Iraqi civil society and infrastructure, fuelled terrorism.....; "
Why do people never associate the US with terrorism and instantly label those who resist them as terrorists?
It was an illegal, immoral and brutal terrorist attack on a defenceless nation? Wake up and smell the oil!!
The US are the terrorists here, while the "terrorists" you refer to are the Iraqi people.
I have said it for 3 years now there is no such thing as Al-Qaeda -unless you work for the CIA or Mossad.
It is quite possible for both the US war and occupation to be terrorist and for some of those fighting it to be using terrorist methods. Quite clearly that is happening in Iraq whether or not you believe Al Quada to be involved (or even to exist).
On the side of the 'resistance' I'd suggest the following as terrorist acts that have nothing to do with resisting imperialism.
Car bombs at Shia religous festivals which have killed hundreds
The murder of barbers for giving unIslamic clean shaves and hair cuts
The murder of off licence owners.
It is not good enough to sacrifice the Iraqi working class because they are carrying out our fight against imperialism. Quite clearly there are elements of the resistance that are as opposed to their interests as the US occupation is. Indeed in some areas it is hard to tell one from the other as there are Islamists in the occupation government as well as the resistance.
check out this story on news.infoshop.org about the al Sadr army killing two students and provoking a student strike because of the student's "'immoral and outrageous behaviour' during the 'holy month of Muharram, while the blood of Imam Hussein is yet to dry.' He added that he had sent the 'group of believers' to observe and photograph the students, and on witnessing them playing loud music, 'the kind they play in bars and discos', and openly talking to female students, the 'believers had to straighten things out'.
