US Wants Al-Jazeera Expelled From Fallujah
Alarmed that al-Jazeera TV’s team of reporters and cameramen in besieged al-Fallujah was broadcasting minute-by-minute evidence of American war crimes in that Iraqi bastion of liberty, US military authorities reportedly stipulated that al-Jazeera’s team must be expelled from al-Fallujah before the US would agree to any cease fire in the city. Al-Jazeera had dispatched its distinguished veteran correspondent Ahmad Mansur to head its team in the besieged city. Mansur and his colleagues were able to get into al-Fallujah one day before the American assault on the 300,000 people of al-Fallujah began, and have been able to cover their defiant rejection of surrender and insistence upon jihad and Resistance
US Aggressors Shoot Directly At Al-Jazeera TV Crew Twice On Friday
Later on Friday, al-Jazeera’s correspondent in defiant al-Fallujah city reported that US aggressor troops had aimed and fired at al-Jazeera’s TV crew in the city. The correspondent said that the US forces had fired on the site from which the al-Jazeera crew were working. Two times on Friday the Americans opened fire on the al-Jazeera team. The correspondent said that the bullets went over their heads and beside them. The team then left that position, which had been out in the open, for a more secure location.
US General Mark Kimmitt: al-Jazeera “broadcasting lies” from al-Fallujah
US aggressor Deputy Operations Commander in Iraq Brigadier General Mark Kimmitt accused al-Jazeera TV of “spreading lies” about his invader troops. Kimmitt, speaking in an al-Jazeera interview, said that Ahmad Mansur broadcasts lies about the situation there. Ahmad Mansur is al-Jazeera’s veteran reporter now covering defiant al-Fallujah’s struggle from the inside.
When al-Jazeera asked whether Kimmitt regarded the scenes of dead and wounded broadcast from al-Fallujah by al-Jazeera, Kimmitt acknowledged that those were not “lies” but said that the US aggressor forces were merely responding to those who targeted them, and therefore such American attacks did not constitute a violation of the so-called “cease fire” that America announced at noon local time and then promptly violated.
