Mujahideen Attack Abu Ghraib Torture-Camp

THE TORTURE AND atrocity camp which the U.S. military operates at the Abu Ghraib prison in Baghdad came under concerted Mujahideen attack. Dozens of fighters attacked the torture-camp with rockets and assault rifles. Two car bombs were also detonated.

“This was obviously a very wellorganised attack and a very big attack,” 1st Lieutenant Adam Rondeau said. According to the U.S. military 44 U.S. service members were wounded, some very seriously.

No count for the number of American dead was released. About 12 detainees in the tortureprison were also wounded. Lieutenant Colonel Guy Rudsill of the US military said: “A group of between 40 and 60 insurgents attacked the US forward operating base at Abu Ghraib. They detonated two VBIEDs (vehicle-borne improvised explosive device) and also fired rocket-propelled grenades into the prison camp. It was a sustained attack. The attacks were intermittent. They would fire RPGs and then stop, then they would attack again.”

According to witnesses the second car bomb was detonated against US forces as they were evacuating casualties from the first car bomb blast.

The impunity and courage with which the Mujahideen launched their sustained attack on a location where there is a large concentration of US forces, demonstrates the pitiful state in which the American military finds itself entrapped. Despite the presence of 150,000 US soldiers armed to the teeth with the most sophisticated and destructive weaponry, plus the formidable airforce of the US, and the huge Iraqi puppet army it has created, the demoralised forces of the US could not pursue the handful of “40 to 60” ill-equipped “insurgents”. At most, the US military “responded with heavy weapons, and the situation was brought under control”. The dilemma of the U.S.A. in Iraq is amply demonstrated by such brazen and fearless attacks which the Mujahideen repeatedly mount against US and Iraqi collaborator targets throughout Iraq.There is no safe haven anywhere in Iraq for the U.S. military and its underlings neither their barracks nor bases.

The U.S.A.’s inability to meet the Mujahideen in a head-on clash is reflected in the following Qur’aanic aayat:

"They cannot fight you (O Muslims!) with their coalition, except from inside fortified barracks (like the Green Zone) or from behind walls (such as the concrete barriers erected in Baghdad and the Israeli wall). Their mutual in-fighting is severe. You think that they are united while in reality their hearts are apart. That is so because they are a people without intelligence."
