Greeks Protest US Aggressions in Fallujah

At least13 ,000 Greeks marched in downtown Athens on Wednesday, November17 , to protest the US military offensive on the Iraqi city of Fallujah, western Baghdad, and the invasion of the oil-rich country.

Chanting "American killers," protesters carried empty white coffins daubed with red Arabic writing to voice their opposition to the massive American sweep into Fallujah, where many of its300 ,000 population were killed.

Gathering outside the American Embassy, which was barricaded by police buses, the demonstrators unfurled a large banner reading "Hands off Fallujah," reported CNN.

They also protested the US-led invasion of Iraq on false pretexts of finding weapons of mass destruction, none of which ever found in the country since the April 2003 occupation.

the protesters also said smirk and sharon were "killers of people"

the article also said that an eyewitness who had escaped Fallujah said our troops "deliberately" crushed the dead bodies of women and children.

2. Never in my lifetime have I seen such animosity toward our
contry--well, the Head of our country. And to think he was Diebolded into another 4 years. His first term was courtesy of our very own Supreme Court. And who are we again? A free country?

3. Maybe it's easier to see the truth from a distance...
The rest of the world can't believe the huge number of people in this country to actually think our Jackass in Chief has been able to retain as much popularity as he has. Pride goeth before a fall and personally I just can't wait to see the little shitbird get what's coming to him.

5. It is too bad that the sheep of America view the outside world as ...

... bad.

What is an eye opening for us, is seen by the sheep as further proof that we must continue our 'war on terror' to defeat the 'evils' of the world.
