[Marxism] From Dieter Elken: US looking for way out of Fallujah? and other battle reports

["Fred Feldman" <ffeldman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is very valuable information, especially the report on Washington's
abject failure to drive the resistance from Fallujah, despite the
massive attack and the withdrawal of most resistance forces to other
areas.  A skeleton crew of fighters has been able to prevent the
achievement of Washington's goals. It looks like the US may be looking
for a retreat from the city covered by the presence of "Iraqi" troops
and cops who have avoided the fighting in the city. They will be
single-mindedly focused on keeping out of the way of the resistance
groups.

Precisely because this is an important report, there is absolutely no
need for it to appear in wraparound format, which adds a great deal to
the difficulty of accessing  it.

Iraqi Resistance Report for events of Wednesday, 15 December 2004

Wednesday, 15 December 2004.

Al-Fallujah.

US seeks face-saving solution to get out of al-Fallujah after crushing
defeat.

US occupation forces issued strong warnings to members of their puppet
so-called "Iraqi national guard" and the puppet police, demanding that
they get ready to enter al-Fallujah.  The Mafkarat al-Islam
correspondent reported eyewitnesses as saying that puppet Iraqi security
forces had refused to respond to US requests, forcing them to send an
emissary to Sabir al-Jannabi the former commander of the al-Fallujah
local police.

Mafkarat al-Islam's correspondent reported that the emissary carried
with him an appeal to al-Jannabi from the US forces that he agree to
take on the role of chief of the police in al-Fallujah once again.

For his part, al-Jannabi replied in a message to the US occupation
forces, saying, "I will not put my hand in hands of people stained with
the blood of the people of al-Fallujah."  Mafkarat al-Islam reports that
this is probably the reason why US forces continue detaining Mahmud
al-Fallahi, claiming him to be the chief of police in al-Fallujah,
despite the fact that there are no police forces in al-Fallujah, nor any
police station, and despite the fact that al-Fallahi is currently a
prisoner being held in an unknown location in al-Fallujah.

Sabir al-Jannabi's role as chief of police in al-Fallujah developed on
the basis of the peace agreement concluded between al-Fallujah and the
US military in April 2004.  According to the terms of that accord, the
Americans extracted themselves from the city by "appointing" a police
force to take over the city in their stead.  That police force, however,
unlike those that the occupation forces imposed elsewhere in the
country, was to be made up entirely of local residents of al-Fallujah.
In ensuing months, the US military made it clear that they felt that the
police in al-Fallujah were cooperating with the Resistance - as was to
be expected of a force recruited locally in the defiant city.  The
Americans finally tore up their peace agreement with the city when in
November they decided to launch their current offensive on al-Fallujah.

Spokesman for al-Fallujah Resistance discusses latest events Wednesday
night.

In a dispatch posed at 11:20pm Mecca time Wednesday night, Mafkarat
al-Islam reported that Shaykh Abu As'ad ad-Dulaymi, the official
spokesman of the Resistance in al-Fallujah said that the city at 8:30pm
local time Wednesday night was being shelled and was shelling the US
attackers.  US warplanes and mortars were bombarding the city and
Resistance fighters in the city were shelling US forces.

Shaykh ad-Dulaymi said that the Resistance had greatly benefited from
the hour during which the Americans had stopped fighting in order to
retrieve their wounded.  This occurred after the Resistance had refused
to respond to the American plea for a truce.  Resistance fighters used
light weapons, Kalashnikov assault rifles, BKC machine guns and
rocket-propelled grenades and continued to attack the US troops who
broke apart and fled.

When asked about the number of US troops killed on Wednesday, Shaykh Abu
As'ad ad-Dulaymi replied by saying that at least 500 had died and that
63 Resistance fighters had fallen as martyrs. Ad-Dulaymi said that the
number of US vehicles destroyed exceeded 100, including tanks and
armored vehicles, and he added: "suffice it to say that after the
tremendous losses today, a massive column of US tanks entered the city,
and according to our military intelligence there were almost 400 tanks
in that column that entered from the east."

Regarding the course of battle in the al-Jawlan neighborhood, ad-Dulaymi
replied, "I don't know anything.  We were busy with the big battle that
I suspect the Americans won't ever forget.

Massive US attack on al-Fallujah thrown back in humiliating defeat.
Dust storms blind US aircraft.  Puppet troops flee after 15 minutes of
battle. Resistance launches attacks under cover of weather.  Ninety US
tanks, armored vehicles aflame.

In a new development on the al-Fallujah battlefield, US forces attempted
to attack and destroy the center of the Resistance in the south of the
city, but were repulsed by the Resistance fighters.  Mafkarat al-Islam
reported on the situation in a dispatch posted at 7:20pm Wednesday
night, Mecca time.

Shaykh Abu As'ad ad-Dulaymi, official spokesman for the city's
Resistance, said that more than 400 US tanks and 200 armored vehicles
took part in the attack along with about 4,000 US troops, in addition to
puppet "national guards," in what was the biggest massing of US forces
in the battle for the city so far.  No attack on such a scale had been
mounted either in this offensive nor in the first siege of al-Fallujah
in spring 2004.  Ad-Dulaymi said that the Americans apparently wanted to
make today the last day of the Resistance in al-Fallujah.

US forces began to mass at 8am, local time, causing the Resistance
fighters to move out of the al-'Askari and al-Wahdah neighborhoods and
into the southern part of the city where they could help defend the main
center of the Resistance in the an-Nazal neighborhood.

Shaykh ad-Dulaymi said that the American attack began at 10:30am.  After
fifteen minutes during which the battle intensified, the puppet
"national guard" fled from the battle field, and then from the whole
battle zone, leaving the US forces alone to fight the Resistance.

The first sign that the Americans were beginning to falter came at about
12 noon when US occupation troops also began to flee from the
battlefield, abandoning their weapons.  The gradual collapse of the US
lines continued until the victory of the Resistance forces at 3:15pm
when the US troops began their withdrawal from the battle field towards
the east and to the Nuwwab ad-Dubbat, al-Mu'allimin, and the Jami'
al-Aqsa areas at the northern extremities of al-Fallujah adjacent to the
railroad tracks.

US forces used loudspeakers to call for a one-hour truce with the
Resistance in order to remove their wounded from the no-man's-land
between the two sides.  The Americans addressed the Resistance saying
"If you are real fighters, then display chivalry."  The Resistance
responded with hand-held microphones from a mosque, reading out a
statement written by Shaykh Abu As'ad ad-Dulaymi in which he said that
God had commanded them "not to have faith in the Christians, Jews, and
infidels among you."  He said, "you speak of chivalry now after you have
suffered the pain and humiliation of punishment. So taste what you have
been promised."  The Resistance read its statement four times although
the Americans made their appeal dozens of times over.

US warplanes took part in the attacks on the city at the beginning, but
then they bombed a group of US troops by mistake, due to poor
visibility, and after that the aircraft were withdrawn.  That took place
after 1:30pm.

Shaykh ad-Dulaymi said that it was impossible at that time to give an
accurate count of US losses, but that 90 clouds of thick black smoke
mixed with flame were rising into the sky - signs of destroyed US
vehicles, most of them Abrams tanks and Bradley armored vehicles.  He
said that the Resistance pursued the retreating Americans, and that
there were indications that some Americans had been taken prisoner,
considering that the retreating Americans had fled along many various
routes.

Shaykh Abu As'ad ad-Dulaymi praised the mercy of God for the fact that
as the Americans gathered for battle at 8am the skies were clear, but
then the winds began to pick up and intensify until by 9am there was a
yellow dust storm blowing, reducing visibility to less than 10 meters.
This allowed the Resistance fighters to take cover from the aircraft and
tanks and to move about with ease.  This was in contrast to the way that
the aggressor troops responded to the dust storm, which totally
paralyzed them.

The American defeat today, Wednesday, is the biggest American defeat
ever at the city of al-Fallujah since the start of the US aggression
against it.  It is evident that the Resistance has learned the lessons
of earlier attacks very well.  It should be remembered, however, that
today was a stormy day, a factor that worked to the great advantage of
the Resistance, as prevented the Americans from using their aircraft and
distracted the American troops on the ground, while facilitating
surprise guerrilla attacks by Resistance fighters sowing great confusion
in the ranks of the Americans.

US compiling detailed records on all al-Fallujah refugees stranded
outside the city.

US forces have begun dealing with refugees from the city of al-Fallujah
in the as-Saqlawiyah area in a new way, according to Mafkarat al-Islam's
correspondent.  Eyewitnesses told the correspondent that American forces
are now getting finger prints of the head of every family from
al-Fallujah.  In addition they are recording the structure of their eyes
and are compiling a list of all the citizens of the city.  A
questionnaire with 13 sections is being filled out for each citizen of
al-Fallujah, including information such as full name, nicknames,
occupation, religion, and so forth.

Witnesses told Mafkarat al-Islam's correspondent that one Iraqi refugee
from al-Fallujah approached an American officer and spoke to him through
an interpreter.  He told the American, "you promised that we could
return to the city on the 15th of December.  Well, now the date has come
and nothing has happened."  The American officer replied by saying, "I
expect you will be staying here for several months more, because the
fighting has begun again, and it's fiercer than it was before."

Al-Hadithah.

American forces driven out of base near al-Hadithah leaving mass grave
behind.

Iraqi Resistance attacks on a US camp located west of the city of
al-Hadithah escalated to the point that American forces were compelled
to evacuate the base, according to Mafkarat al-Islam.

The base, which formerly was an artillery combat school is located on
the outskirts of the ash-Shurtah neighborhood of the city.  US forces
took it over three months ago as a base.  Ever since the US began its
offensive against al-Fallujah, the al-Hadithah base has been a target
for violent Iraqi Resistance attacks that grew so intense that the
Americans finally decided to leave.  Even as they were withdrawing to
the al-Qaadisiyah base, 15km north of al-Hadithah, the Americans came
under Resistance attack three times.

After the American departure, an Iraqi shepherd and another individual
entered the base where they found a fresh mass shallow grave.  The
shepherd's dog dug up one of the bodies.  After the first body was
uncovered, the other bodies were dug up, making a total of 82 corpses in
all.  Each had been buried in a black bag.  Some of the bodies were
those of Nepalese, according to their identity tags and the little
images of Buddha that they wore on their chests.  There were other
bodies of Indians, three Egyptians, and two Lebanese.  All the dead had
been buried recently as the corpses had not yet decomposed.

The identities of the Egyptians and Lebanese were determined on the
basis of papers found in their clothing.  They were dressed in American
uniforms, unlike the Nepalese and the Indians who appear to have been
cleaning workers or cooks or something of that nature.
