When U.S. Blames Al-Qaeda For Its Crimes - Iraqi Interpreters Murdered
When US blames Qaeda for its crimes  January 22, 2008 presstv.ir | |
A video taken on a cellphone indicates that a US F-16 dropped a 'five-hundred-pounder' on the bridge in April. "We're dropping a five [...] hundred pound bomb on that [...] house over there. Yeah," says an unknown man on the recording with a clear American accent. "We got a F-16, we got a [...] M1 Abrams over there," the man continues. "Ten second impact! Get down and plug your ears," another unidentified man says. As the video continues, the audio suggests that a jetfighter entering the area drops the bomb on the bridge. The bridge, which connected two Shia and Sunni neighborhoods on the banks of the Tigris River, goes down after the impact; victory celebration follows. As the bridge partially collapsed at least 10 people were killed and 26 were injured, leaving some 20 people trapped in their cars. After the incident, the US military falsely claimed that the al-Qaeda had taken responsibility for the destruction of the bridge. MD/AA/RE |

| 'Iraqi interpreters killed over intel' January 22, 2008 presstv.ir | |
An informed source speaking on condition of anonymity told Press TV that these interpreters had in-depth knowledge of meetings between the American forces and terrorist organizations. The source maintained that such tactics are not new to the US military, as there are frequent reports of suspicious death among Iraqi interpreters who are killed in car explosions outside the Green Zone and in crowded Baghdad neighborhoods, under questionable circumstances. According to the source, these interpreters come from poor families and are lured into working for the occupiers with the promise of green cards and American dollars. Once exposed to confidential material, they are considered dangerous and find themselves on the American hit list. In this manner, not only are the bombings portrayed as terrorist attacks but also individuals with incriminating evidence on the US are eliminated. A roadside bomb expert, who became suspicious of defusing the same bombs again and again, began marking the uncovered explosives only to have his suspicions confirmed. He said he is certain that US forces are behind most roadside bombings in Iraq. ZHD/HGH/RE |
