Yep, Ol Wikipedia is at it again. (This SHOULD have posted at 0500 this morning.)
Let's drift back in history to October 2006. The Gunny posted his blog article on Commie lover Mikey Farrell who lent his assistance operating on a terrorist (http://noliberalspin.blogtownhall.com/2006/10/23/celebrity_terrorist_lover.thtml) and then posted the REFERENCED article (LA Times) as a link. Credible right? Not to the libdrones at Wikipedia. They kept wiping the posts the Gunny put up until one of the co-founders challenged me to get the article. Ten bucks to the LA Library and I had a copy. I reposted it, they banned the Gunny. So much for Freedom of Speech and Liberals. They're more of the Daily KoS, moveyourbowels.org, HuffyPuffy type anyway.
So, in keeping with the liberal anti-American revisionists at Wikipedia, here is their version of the Battle of Fallujah.
During the Second Battle of Fallujah, US forces cut off water and electricity to the city of 600,000 people. US forces used Chemical weapons against people of Fallujah. US air strikes have destroyed hospitals and medical centres. The US took over the Fallujah General Hospital and converted to a military hospital, thus denying the citizens of Fallujah any health care service. On 09 November 2004, US warplanes attacked the Nazzal Emergency Hospital in the centre of the city and completely destroyed it. Thirty-five patients were killed, including five children under the ages of 10 years. According to Amnesty International, "20 Iraqi medical staff [doctors and nurses] and dozens of other civilians were killed when a missile hit a Fallujah clinic on 09 November 2004". The air strike also destroyed the hospital medical supplies warehouse.
As of today, the exact number of civilians killed by the US assault on Fallujah is not known. According to the Allawi's government, more than 100,000 Iraqis have been killed and over 200,000 wounded and 200,000 were fled from the city. US forces used internationally banned weapons such as napalm and poison gas, phosphorous weapons and jet fuel, which makes the human body melt, to attack the city, given the high rate of civilian casualties.
Napalm and other chemical weapons were used heavily in the Jolan district of Fallujah. a district inhabited by half the inhabiters of the city. The Iraqi Red Crescent Society was prevented by US forces from entering the city to provide supplies to the wounded civilians, and called the health conditions in and around Fallujah "catastrophic". Eyewitnesses say most of the victims are civilians, including, women, children, and unarmed men between the ages of 14-60 years old, who were prevented from leaving the city before the US onslaught. Furthermore, many children have died as a result of starvation, dehydration and outbreaks of diarrhoeal infections.
One can only wonder if Hanoi Jane, Hanoi John Fonda Kerry, and Murtha helped draft Wikipedia's version. One can only wonder what their version of Chappaquiddick must read like...
