	Iraqi resistance shatters US propaganda of "liberation" war
		Iraqi state television later broadcast film of one of the helicopters on the ground, with armed Iraqi soldiers dancing around it in jubilation.
		Iraqi officials have provided few details of the resulting casualties, releasing figures for the death toll which appear to be deliberately minimized, perhaps to avoid panicking the population.
		The resistance of the Iraqis in the south is a manifestation of spontaneous popular opposition to the US-British invasion.

	GN Online: Iraqi resistance, not U.S., the real 'Desert Scorpion'
		When Iraqi families are flagrantly robbed in public, the people have no choice but to resist and fight as long as the Americans do not ensure security for them.
		The Americans are trying to insult the intelligence of Iraqi citizens by not letting them run their own country and by bringing in more U.S. experts to rule the Iraqis although they have highly qualified people who are not only able to rule but to fully manage the country's political, economic and social affairs.
		The resistance will escalate and will be joined by other "remnants" of the people: The more loathed the occupation becomes, the stronger and more violent the resistance will be.

	Guardian Unlimited \| Special reports \| Inside the resistance
		I first met Iraqi resistance fighters at a farm in the suburbs of Ramadi, north of Baghdad.
		The motivations of each strand of Iraqi resistance vary: the loyalists are driven by the loss of power; the nationalists by the desire to establish independence and security; the Islamists by their dream of returning political Islam to the Iraqi nation.
		Given the growing number of Iraqis joining the resistance, there is a strong need for Washington and London to revise their military and political plans for post-conflict Iraq.

	Iraqi Resistance Report for Friday, 24 December 2004
		Iraqi Resistance forces attacked the US base that has been set up in the Northern Palace of President Saddam Hussein in Tikrit, located on the banks of the Euphrates River at 10am Friday.
		Iraqis cried out in rage, anger, and frustration after a group of al-Fallujah refugees returned to their city Thursday and were shocked to find their homes buried under rubble, the neighborhoods in which they used to live nothing but ruins as a result of the activity of the American war machine.
		Iraqi Resistance forces destroyed a Soviet-built bridge on the Euphrates river that US forces were monopolizing for their use alone as they shipped in supplies and provisions for the American occupation troops deployed along the border with Syria in the area of the city of al-Qa’im.

	Al-Ahram Weekly \| Region \| Defining resistance
		The Iraqi interim government and the occupation authorities have repeatedly attributed operations directly targeting the occupation forces to former Baathists or Saddam Hussein loyalists.
		The message is: there is no Iraqi resistance; but there are evil, mostly "foreign" militants, who continue to cross Iraq's borders with the objective of preventing peace and prosperity from flourishing in the country.
		Although these statements were not coordinated, the proximity of the dates of their release reflects growing and widespread frustration at the deterioration of the situation in Iraq under the occupation.

	US General captured by Iraqi Resistance
		Iraqi Resistance forces destroyed an American tank and a Humvee in the village of ash-Shamiyah, south west of al-Fallujah a few minutes before 9:00pm Mecca time, according to the local correspondent of Mafkarat al-Islam.
		Iraqi Dr. Zayid Muhammad was quoted by the Mafkarat al-Islam as saying that the explosion took place in al-Washshash district, west of Baghdad and killed the puppet police chief of al-Ma’mun as well as another officer in the puppet police.
		The Iraqi Resistance frequently targets the oil pipelines carrying petroleum out of Iraq, because the returns from sale of the Iraqi natural resource all go directly into the coffers of the US aggressors and their stooges.

	Iraqi Resistance Hits US Base - Kills 11, Takes Humvees
		The Resistance confiscated the four Humvees and drove them out of the American camp, and from there out of the city, taking with them all the weapons, technical equipment, military maps, and communications gear that was in the vehicles.
		The correspondent wrote that as soon as the Americans learned that the Resistance had infiltrated into their camp, killed their personnel and commandeered four of their vehicles, they sent troops out into the city to carry out a thorough search for the Resistance fighters.
		But it was only the Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent who relayed the story based in part on sources in the Iraqi Resistance and also on an interview with a member of the US military who did not deny the story but refused to make any statement about it.

	Boston.com / News / World / Anger and faith fuel Iraqi resistance
		Mohamed said he has come to believe in a simple principle that has galvanized the resistance movement and spurred a resurgence of Islamic piety and Iraqi nationalism: Iraqi Muslims -- not "foreign infidels" -- should be running their country.
		Mohamed's words, and those of more than 30 residents familiar with the resistance fighters interviewed in the main towns west of Baghdad -- Ramadi and Fallujah -- belie the US stance that all resistance fighters are entrenched former Ba'athists.
		The Iraqi Governing Council is not seen as a solution; rather, its members are seen as collaborating with the occupation.

	Asia Times - Asia's most trusted news source for the Middle East
		BAGHDAD - On the eve of the so-called transfer of sovereignty to the new Iraqi caretaker government on June 30, former Saddam Hussein generals turned members of the elite of the Iraqi resistance movement have abandoned their clandestine positions for a while to explain their version of events and talk about their plans.
		They are two generals and a colonel of the disbanded Iraqi army, now on the run for many months, chased by the coalition's intelligence services.
		The resistance's means of dissuasion led to an ever-shrinking list of candidates to key government posts proposed by the coalition, and this in a country ravaged by 13 years of embargo and two wars where unemployment has been a crucial problem.

	Boston.com / News / World / Iraqi resistance more lethal, US commander says
		Sanchez stressed that US forces were improving their ability to confront the resistance, a statement echoed yesterday in Washington by Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld and Air Force General Richard B. Myers, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, who defended American progress in Iraq.
		At the United Nations, Secretary General Kofi Annan told a closed-door gathering of Security Council members that the world body must be given a leading role in shaping Iraq's political transition or it would not be involved in the nation at all, according to several diplomats and UN officials who attended the meeting.
		Except for a soldier who was killed on patrol in Baghdad, the encounters between US forces and resistance fighters on Wednesday and yesterday occurred in a relatively small part of Iraq along the Euphrates River west of the capital known as the Sunni Triangle because of the high concentration of Sunni Muslims living there.

	Iraqi Resistance Grows
		Attacks by Iraqi resistance fighters on the U.S. occupation forces and their allies showed a new sharp increase over the month of November.
		However, the resistance has already managed to raise massive doubts among the populations of the countries involved in the U.S.-led war about the feasibility and/or desirability of maintaining a military occupation of Iraq.
		In this regard, the Iraqi protests and resistance have strengthened the prospects for the struggle against the international capitalist offensive, which threatens the livelihoods and well-being of millions in the imperialist countries themselves, as well as threatening to bring back in a still worse form all the evils of a naked imperialist domination.

		Roy was awarded this year's prize for what its judges said was her advocacy in demanding justice for the poor and people displaced by dam projects, as well as her opposition to nuclear weapons.
		She said activists and resistance movements "need to understand that Iraq is engaging in the frontlines of empire and we have to throw our weight behind the Iraqi resistance".
		"One wasn't urging them to join the army, but to become the resistance, to become part of what ought to be non-violent resistance against a very violent occupation," she said, adding that the term resistance needed to be redefined.

	How to End the War -- In These Times
		Some elements of the armed resistance are targeting Iraqi civilians as they pray in Shia mosques—barbaric acts that serve the interests of the Bush administration by feeding the perception that the country is on the brink of civil war and therefore U.S. forces must remain in Iraq.
		Iraqis are clamoring for democracy and had risked their lives for it long before this invasion—in the 1991 uprising against Saddam, for example, when they were left to be slaughtered.
		The âIraqis fighting to end the occupationâ are in fact Saddam loyalists and non-Iraqis, led by a top Al Qaeda operative continuing what occurred before the war and that is killing Iraqis who want a stable and free country.

	Asia Times - Iraqi resistance takes on a new face
		The brothers are believed to have recently moved to Mosul to broaden resistance and reorganize it.
		The resistance of the Arab tribes in the northern belt, meanwhile, is gradually changing shape.
		But the people will not be celebrating too hard just yet as, of the four streams of resistance, the emerging Islamic groups in the Arabian belt still have the potential to derail not only the peace process in other parts of the country, but also in currently calm Kurdish parts of Iraq.

		Reporters on the ground say they are ordinary Iraqis who are taking up arms against the US, frustrated with no jobs, no infrastructure and no stability and the Muslims say they are mujahideen rallying to expel the foreign occupiers from this Muslim land.
		The company has compiled an in-depth report on who’s who inside the Iraqi resistance that finally dispels the myths and gives a factual accounting of those who are taking up arms against the American occupiers.
		The ideology of many of the fighters is described as "post-Saddam" and is a simple combination of Islamism and nationalism, covering a wide spectrum of Muslims viewpoints that converge on the common goal of ending US military rule inside the country.
