The fact she was so respected and liked in the area, as well as being married to a local man, when you try and consider locals as the culprits, it seems highly unlikely.

havent u ever thought maybe it was the Jihadists who dont like seeing humanitarians helping the Iraqis? u seem them commit martyrdom on UN building and other organizations. she may be respected but she aint impressing the Jihadists.

What do you have to say for yourselfs? Absolutely nothing? left you speechless has it?
How ironic that's shot's writes "frauds will be exposed". And it's ironic how xman in black photo shops a picture himself. It seems to me, your the fraudster here, trying to blacken someones name with sketchy "evidence" that was blatently flaud, you've only succeeded in blackening your own name.

Speaking of "What we Iraqis want", did anyone else see the news article that states that only a small minority of the insurgents are from Iraq. I guess this explains why they don't mind killing Iraqis.
Over 40 Percent of Iraqi Suicide Bombers Are Saudi
a senior U.S. military official said Friday in Baghdad.
Still, the vast majority of insurgents are Iraqis.
"We've got, oh, roughly 10,800 -- give or take -- prisoners. I think there are like 357, 358, something like that, third-country nationals, some of whom have been in Iraq for many, many years," the senior official said.
Newtopia: The US Corporate media consistently characterizes the Iraqi resistance as "foreign terrorists and former Ba’athist insurgents". In your experience, is this an accurate portrayal? If not, why?
Dahr Jamail: This is propaganda of the worst kind. Most Iraqis refer to the Iraqi Resistance as “patriots.” Which of course most of them are-they are, especially in Fallujah, primarily composed of people who simply are resisting the occupation of their country by a foreign power. They are people who have had family members killed, detained, tortured and humiliated by the illegal occupiers of their shattered country. Calling them “foreign terrorists” and “Ba’athist insurgents” is simply a lie.
Newtopia: Give us a little background on yourself. Where did you grow up, go to school? Where have you lived? What’s been your professional background? What were your main social, political, and cultural influences?
DJ: I was born and raised in Houston, Texas and attended college at Texas A&M University where I majored in Speech Communications. After graduating, I moved to Colorado, then Utah, then Washington State where I worked for awhile on a Masters in English Literature

It also shows how you naive you can be to assume that I support you.

June 1, 2005 -- WASHINGTON — More than 40 percent of the suicide bombers dispatched by terror leader Abu Musab al- Zarqawi to attack Iraqis and U.S. troops hailed from Saudi Arabia, according to a new study. Only 9 percent of the bombers were Iraqis, said the report by the SITE Institute, a counterterror group.
The analysis bolsters the Bush administration's claims that the Iraqi borders are not well policed and fanatical foreign jihadists have been streaming into the country to wreak deadly havoc.
SITE recently discovered a "Martyrs' List" that Zarqawi posted on a Web site to commemorate the fanatics who were recruited as foot soldiers in the group's deadly campaign of car bombings and other attacks to undermine Iraq's transition to

If the iraqi resistance don't like to see the humanitarians in iraq, then why did the aid worker helen williams become great friends with the resistance? And others like her, like Dahr jamal, etc. etc. Margrett hassan was a friend of the resistance too, or so Robert fisk the award winning writer has us to belive.

not all of them have the same view of the humaniarians, since she is an infidel they pretty much can kill her all they want and they did. there are different resistance people with different agendas.

If Bush and his cronies are the ones behind all the bombings and Iraqi resistance, don't they run the risk of losing domestic support for the War on Terror as US casualties escalate?

She is an infidel... Deltaboy, you should study the various groups and religions. They are not all the same; and they don't all share the same views. For example, to the Wahabbists (Saudi Arabians) ALL westerners are infidels. Even moderate muslims, to them, should be killed. Iraq is a very diverse country.

"I don't remember saying I thought it was the Iraqi resistance who were responsible"
If Bush and his cronies are the ones behind all the bombings and Iraqi resistance, don't they run the risk of losing domestic support for the War on Terror as US casualties escalate?
Also, are these suicide bombings not really suicides or is teh USFG finding Middle-Eastern volunteers to kill themselves for the sake of our propaganda?

An infidel, by definition is a non-believer in any religion. So, technically he is correct, even if your connotation is different.

As I pointed out tho, to a group like the Wahabbists, even Muslims (of the moderate variety) are infidels.
Storyline Australia: Iraq, My Country - An Exile's Return to Samawa.
Fourteen years after fleeing Iraq, Melbourne-based filmmaker Hadi Mahood returns to his hometown of Samawa city in southern Iraq. In the tumultuous months between the fall of Saddam Hussein's regime and the installation of a new government, he filmed the daily lives of ordinary people eking out a living. He discovers not only a city struggling to rebuild its infrastructure but a people attempting to overcome the mental sabotage of Saddam's regime as well as the recent war of liberation.
In Iraq, My Country: An Exile's Return To Samawa, Hadi documents the violence and volatility of a city in chaos, a city left in a vacuum of power. The result is a testament to the Iraqi people attempting to survive. The program will screen on SBS Television on Thursday, 9 June at 8.30 pm in the Storyline Australia timeslot.

Members of the Iraqi resistance, most probably, would not blow themselves up. The experts have really been pondering this.. who is actually behind the "suicide bombings." Rumsfeld's PG02 group? That is a very real possibility.
