Ramadi: Insurgents Used Women And Children
2004-04-08
Anti-American SPIEGEL ONLINE, the online version of Germany’s left-wing weekly SPIEGEL, presents an Instant Messenger communication between 2 Iraqi brothers during the Ramadi fighting where 12 marines were killed. The piece is in German, translated from the original version at qoqaz.com. It is clear from the communication: The insurgents are using women and children to attack the Americans.

Al-Anbari: All of the people in the area have started to move, men and women. I didn’t think that the people in this area were so heroic. The mothers are even pushing their children into the fight.
Kamal: Whatever God wants! Blessed be the Almighty!

Al-Anbari: Imagine: I encountered a boy who was not even 15 years old who was carrying a weapon, but without ammunition (
). When I saw this heroic impetuousness, I pulled my magazine out and gave it to him.

Kamal: Oh God! God is great!

Al-Anbari: I also saw a young guy who bravely stood up to the Americans and threw things at them, and they just couldn’t react to it, even though they were so many.

Kamal: Such news strengthen ones pride. (our translation)
