WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

[I’m reading a book about Al Qaeda. Its interesting. Al Qaeda is not an organisation, it is a TACTIC. You could say that Al Qaeda is a FRANCHISE! It is unstoppable and could wage wars for decades. Jan]

Baghdad – Two suicide bombers struck in a Sunni Arab district of Baghdad on Monday, killing at least 14 people including the leader of a United States-backed neighbourhood security patrol, police said.
The strikes were the latest in an apparent stepped-up campaign of suicide bombings that has seen major attacks nearly every day for the past two weeks, even as overall levels of violence in Iraq have fallen.
The US military blamed al-Qaeda and said the attacks provided “perhaps the clearest proof of the nature of this enemy that will destroy the very people and neighbourhoods of whom it claims to protect”.
After nightfall, gunmen in five cars kidnapped between eight and 10 neighbourhood patrol volunteers in the northern Shaab district of Baghdad, police said. The volunteers had been manning a vehicle checkpoint.
Earlier, chanting mourners carried the bodies of Colonel Riyadh al-Samarrai and some of his slain bodyguards through the streets of the mainly Sunni Arab Adhamiya neighbourhood, where the colonel led volunteer patrols in the pay of US forces.
“The martyrdom of the colonel is an inspiration to us now. All of us will become Colonel Riyadhs,” said Abu Firas, another senior member of the “awakening” movement in the area, the Iraqi name for Sunni Arab tribes that have turned against al-Qaeda.
Three separate police and security sources confirmed the death toll and said about 20 people were wounded. Baghdad security spokesperson Brigadier-General Qassim Moussawi told Iraqiya state television six people were killed and 26 wounded.
One of the bombers detonated an explosive vest, the other struck with a car bomb.
Samarrai was also in charge of security at the Adhamiya headquarters of the Sunni Endowment, an institution that runs Sunni mosques and religious offices in Iraq.
The Endowment said the attack was part of “a conspiracy against this country, the blood of which continues to flow”.
Other blasts in Baghdad killed five people, including a bomb hidden in a market cart that killed four in the central Karrada district and a pair of roadside bombs that killed a civilian and wounded two policemen in southern Jadiriya district.
Police said they found five bodies of men handcuffed, blindfolded and shot in the head in volatile Diyala province, and gunmen killed a member of a neighbourhood patrol working as a carpenter inside his shop in Samarra.
