U.S. Troops Raid Headquarters of Iraq's Democratic, Secular Opposition

category international | anti-war / imperialism | other press author Thursday February 21, 2008 16:14author by pat c Report this post to the editors

Yet again the US Occupation Forces have launched an attack on The Iraq Freedom Congress.

In another poor move; the occupying troops has made another attempt to eliminate the voice of freedom from Iraq by raiding the IFC headquarter in Baghdad on 12 February when they forced themselves in, verbally and physically assaulted the guards and stood them out in the rain for several hours. It is understood from the many previous incidents that these attempts are not to look for weapons or investigations regarding terrorist activities; but in fact they are to intimidate and eliminate any voice that objects the occupation and its puppets.

The occupying troops believe that carrying out such actions will further their cause and break the will of the people; however they always forget that such actions will only increase our determination and empower our will to advance our struggle to expedite the end of the occupation.

IFC declares that such poor actions will not tremble us or back us away from the struggle; but we will continue our pace until the final victory.
