Inside The Iraqi Resistance The Sydney Morning Herald 8-15-03 http://www.rense.com/general40/resist.htm "Washington has been reluctant to accept that what is happening in Iraq constitutes a guerilla war. It has repeatedly pinned the blame for instability on Saddam Hussein and Baath Party loyalists; and, particularly since last week's bombing of the Jordanian embassy in Baghdad, on foreigners associated with the terrorist network al-Qaeda and its offshoots."

"Those who fail to learn the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them." -Santayana http://fcit.coedu.usf.edu/holocaust/timeline/resist.htm >Resistance against the Nazis--planned and spontaneous, armed and unarmed--took many forms throughout WWII and the Holocaust. For many, the resistance was a struggle for physical existence. Some escaped through legal or illegal emigration. Others hid. Those who remained, struggled to obtain life's essentials by smuggling the food, clothing, and medicine necessary to survive. Resistance was very hazardous. In addition to the direct threat to those engaged in resistance, there was a great risk of immediate retaliation by the Nazis to the larger population after an insurrection. <Young Muslim arabs who fight and die, to oppose the invasion are considered heroes: "Those who fail to learn the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them." -Santayana (excised from the internet but cached: ) http://216.239.57.104/search?q=cache:J ebpgmGIEDAJ:www.pop-up.org/1antirac/wrose/weisseroseen.htm+resistance+against+nazis&hl=en&ie=UTF-8 >The "Geschwister (siblings) Scholl", as they are commemorated in Germany, stand for the young generation's resistance against the Nazis. Today many schools in Germany proudly carry their name. Young Germans active in the fight against the new Nazis' spirit of xenophobia and deeds of violence carry on the spirit of Hans and Sophie Scholl in groups with the name "White Rose". < The Storm Lantern of the White Rose, is on the internet.
