Iraq Links London Attacks to Insurgency

By BASSEM MROUE, Associated Press Writer 2 hours, 39 minutes ago

BAGHDAD, Iraq - Islamic extremists have been using
Iraq as a planning center for attacks around the world since losing
Afghanistan as their base in 2001, the government's chief spokesman said Friday.


Speaking about Thursday's blasts in London that killed more than 50 people, Laith Kubba said "we don't know exactly who carried out these acts but it is clear that these networks used to be in Afghanistan and now they work in Iraq."

The spokesman said that insurgents in Iraq and those who carried out the London attacks "are from the same network. There are different groups in the world, but they all follow the same school."

Kubba was referring to hardline Muslim extremists who label people that don't agree with them as infidels.

"We don't know exactly who enters Iraq then leaves to carry out attacks with explosives around the world," he told The Associated Press.

Iraq's government has accused
Syria of allowing insurgents to cross its porous border into Iraq — a claim Damascus denies, saying it cannot fully control its portion of the frontier.

Meanwhile, President Jalal Talabani condemned the London attacks because "these vile crimes reflect the moral bankruptcy of those who conducted them in the name of humanity."

"Terrorism has become an international plague that does not discriminate between races, people or religions," Talabani said in a letter to British Prime Minister
Tony Blair.

Insurgent attacks in Iraq have killed thousands since the fall of
Saddam Hussein's regime in April 2003. Britain has been the United States' closest ally in Iraq and has hundreds of troops in southern regions.

but it's clear they did it from Iraq. . . .

Okay dumbass . . . if you don't know who did it, how the FUCK do you know where they're from?

First of all, this is pure unadulterated speculation. The motive to make this speculation is clear: points with the US.

Second, the US controls Kabul in Afghanistan, and that's more or less it. To claim that they set up shop in Iraq after they got kicked out of Afghanistan is crap. Why didn't they set up shop in Syria or Iran?

And how do they get kicked out by 40K US troops in the mountainous Afghanistan only to relocate to a flat-land country with 150K US troops?

:grr:

the Wizard of Oz would say. "Some People Say" (FAUX Speaking Now) they are from Iran...... :wow: ..... who woulda thunk it? ..... :sarcasm: sigh.

PROPAGANDA!!!! God the smell wreaks.

what difference does it make? The lethal wheel keeps on turning, particularly when it's helpful to Teflon Idiot (e.g. elections, summit).

First, I agree with the others that we don't know who the hell did this.

But if it's true that they came from outside Great Britain, Oliphant said that this would be Britain's biggest nightmare. As opposed to if the bombers were living there already. It would be a nightmare because Oliphant said there was no chatter, no inkling at all that something was brewing. A complete breakdown of intelligence. It means intelligence services around the world were blindsided and caught flat footed.

Maybe by today something is known and I'm behind the news. I just got online a bit ago and have not read much. But this article brought back Oliphant's assertions. Even if it's some sort of spin, it makes intelligence agencies look inept.

I caught Tom O. on Franken last night on Sundance Channel. His segment was probably in the last hour of the program.

(snip):

Expect possible more attacks by Bush, Blair and Shari's PE-2 Terrorist Rouges in England, Israel and the USA.

This is all to undermine Chicago U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald's investigations of Bush and Cheney's leaks of CIA Valerie Plame, Ambassador Joseph Wilson wife's CIA Team investigating Bushes and Cheney's involvements into the orchestrated 9-11 attacks on America.
Plame's CIA network was compromised and many were killed as a result of The White House Bush-Cheney leaks in violations of National Security Laws and murder of U.S. CIA Federal Agents.

Judith Miller a Mossad Stooge was jailed for her involvement in the leaks of the CIA Plame investigations which violated National Security laws and the murder of many CIA agents. Miller was not protecting Whistleblower sources but was in fact part of the Bush espionage plot to stop the Plame team from uncovering Bush Cheney's plotted, planned and orchestrated 9-11 attack upon America on September 11, 2001 which is Treason.

Judith Miller stated in the Courtroom July 6, 2005 when asked if she was ready to reveal her source stated: "I cannot take the risk it is to grave, this Government is to powerful".

Congressman Conyor's in June 2005 Congressional hearing called for Impeachment hearing to proceed in July 2005 against George W. Bush after testimony by Ambassador Joseph Wilson and CIA Analyst Ray McGovern.

PE-2 Terrorist Cell Fox News reported MI-5 British agents warned Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to remain in his hotel room 30 minutes prior to the London attacks.


F = False
E = Evidence
A = Appearing
R = Real

Your post is many times more believable than the assertion that the London attacks can be blamed on the Iraqi insurgency or Al-Zarqawi!

Whenever I hear these stupid assertions, I become more and more convinced that London is MIHOP (Made It Happen On Purpose).

I usually just observe here at the DU.

This time I had to show how the AP twists and spins the TRUTH.

the Judith Miller quote with regards to outing Turdblossom?

Take a deep breath America and repeat after me:

There is no monolithic organization of terrorists.

:rofl:
AP....does that stand for assinine propaganda?

Oh, sure, the Iron Will and Kevlar chest of the Mayor of Kabul, AKA the "President" of Afghanistan keeps the terra-ists out...

And HOW much outside of downtown Kabul and the airport do the Warlords and Taliban control???

What a load of dog-shit...
