a US foot patrol near the al-Habib al-Mustafa School in the old
Rawah area, about 315km northwest of Baghdad on Monday morning.
The correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported that the explosion
killed six US Marines in full view of local residents.
Eyewitnesses told Mafkarat al-Islam that a bomb that had been
planted under a pile of rubbish next to the road blew up as a patrol
of about 15 US troops walked over it. The witnesses said that six
Marines were killed and three more wounded in the blast.
After the attack, American forces rushed more than 20 vehicles to
the area, which they surrounded from 8am until 10am Monday morning.
During that time they arrested 13 local people.

Mafkarat al-Islam reported that a short while earlier, an Iraqi
Resistance fida'i fighter blew up his explosives-laden car at the al-
Walid border complex on the frontier between Iraq and Syria in al-
Qa'im.
The al-Qa'im correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported that the
explosion killed or wounded more than 20 US troops according to
preliminary accounts.
Al-Hadithah.
Resistance men clear street in al-Hadithah, then car bomber blasts
American tank, killing a reported seven US troops.
In a dispatch posted at 2:19pm Makkah time Monday afternoon,
Mafkarat al-Islam reported that an Iraqi Resistance fida'i fighter
drove an explosives-laden car into a US tank that was parked on al-
Barid Street in the middle of al-Hadithah.
The correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported eyewitnesses as
saying that a Resistance fighter driving a black Daewoo drove at
extremely high speed into the US tank and blew up on impact. The
blast destroyed the tank completely and killed the seven US soldiers
aboard it. A witness pointed out how body parts of one of the
American soldiers were thrown 30 meters by the force of the car bomb
explosion. It is believed that those remains belonged to the
soldier who had been in the open turret of the tank when the attack
took place.
The correspondent reported that masked men arrived on the scene just
before the attack and asked shop keepers and pedestrians to quietly
but completely clear the street so as not to draw the attention of
the Americans. The street was then completely clear when the attack
took place.

In a dispatch posted at 2:05pm Makkah time Monday afternoon,

under air cover from helicopter gun ships carried out two waves or
raids and searches using police dogs and blowing people's doors open
with percussion grenades. The Americans arrested 50 local men
ranging in age from 20 to 50 years in addition to one elderly woman
whose son was not home during the raids. The Americans accuse the
son of belonging to the Iraqi Resistance so they arrested his mother
as a means to apply pressure on the son.
Al-Fallujah.
Resistance sharpshooter kills US soldier in al-Fallujah, one day

In a dispatch posted at 2:40pm Makkah time Monday afternoon,

The al-Fallujah correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported that a
group of US occupation troops were standing opposite the al-Wahdah
al-Hassabiyah Building in the city when one of them took a direct
hit in the head from an Iraqi Resistance sharpshooter's bullet,
killing him instantly.
On Sunday the American forces had issued a declaration boasting of
the capture of the "al-Fallujah Sniper."
Local residents noted that the Americans sealed off the area where
the attack occurred and it was still closed at the time of reporting.

al-Islam reported that an Iraqi Resistance bomb exploded under a US
Bradley armored vehicle on 17 Tammuz Street in the middle of ar-
Ramadi on Sunday night.
The ar-Ramadi correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported an
officer in the puppet army as saying that after the bomb went off,
Resistance men fired a shoulder-launched rocket at the US vehicle,
totally destroying it and killing or wounding all those aboard.
On Monday morning, US troops closed the bridge in the city again and
imposed a curfew on several neighborhoods of ar-Ramadi, where the
mood is extremely tense.
US troops kill five Iraqi civilians in ar-Ramadi.
US troops shot and killed five Iraqi civilians in the city of ar-
Ramadi, al-Jazeera satellite TV quoted medical sources as saying in
that city.
Two other Iraqis were wounded in that American attack, the doctors
told al-Jazeera.
A source in the puppet police said that US forces had struck two
houses in the dcity and razed two other homes but when speaking with
al-Jazeera made no mention of casualties.
Monday was the third straight day during which US forces kept the
city of ar-Ramadi sealed off from the outside world and full of
large numbers of American troops.
Baghdad.
Mysterious bombs blast Shi`i areas of Baghdad Monday as efforts to
split Iraq continue.
In a bulletin posted at 2:33pm Makkah time Monday afternoon,
Mafkarat al-Islam reported that a mysterious car bomb had exploded a
short while earlier on 20 Street opposite the Jabbar Abu ash-Sharbat
soft drink store in the predominantly Shi`i al-Bayya` neighborhood
of Baghdad.
The correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported eyewitnesses as
saying that an explosives-packed car that had been parked by the
side of the road blew up, killing or wounding more than 30
individuals according to a preliminary count.
Then in a dispatch posted at 3:08pm Makkah time Monday afternoon,
Mafkarat al-Islam reported that a bomb had gone off in the middle of
a gathering of laborers on `Arus Mandali Square in the Madinat as-
Sadr area of Baghdad at 6:30am Monday morning, killing or wounding
80 people.
In its dispatch on the attack, Quds Press reported that some 90
people had been killed or injured in the bomb blast, which targeted
a gathering of laborers in the Madinat as-Sadr area of the occupied
Iraqi capital. The attack took place in spite of the fact that US
forces have kept Madinat as-Sadr under an intense blockade, sealed
off for about six days now from the outside world.
A source in the puppet police told Quds Press that a bomb that had
been placed in a trash bag blew up on Monday morning near Square 55
in Madinat as-Sadr. That square is a daily gathering place for
dozens of day laborers who wait there, hoping to be hired for jobs.
According to a report issued by as-Sadr Hospital in the district, 29
people were killed in the Monday morning explosion and at least 60
more injured, some of them severely.
Al-Jazeera satellite TV reported that 33 people were killed and 59
wounded in the Madinat as-Sadr bombing, which, it added, targeted
construction workers.
Quds Press noted that ambulances and private cars could be seen
taking victims to the hospital as fire trucks rushed to the area to
try to extinguish the blaze ignited by the explosion.
The American blockade, under which all entrances and exits from
Madinat as-Sadr have been closed, is part of a US search for an
American soldier who disappeared about a week ago.
Quds Press reported that the fact that the explosion could take
place despite the area being cut off from the outside world raised
questions as to who would have the opportunity to carry out such a
large-scale attack under those circumstances.
Al-Jazeera reported the press spokesman for the Martyr as-Sadr
Office in al-Karkh as blaming US occupation forces as being
responsible for the blast.
Shaykh Hamdallah ar-Rukkabi told al-Jazeera that Madinat as-Sadr was
peaceful but that the presence of US occupation forces was a tragedy
and that this was the second bomb to go off there since the
Americans imposed their blockade on the area several days ago.
Such bombings that target civilian areas are widely believed to be
part of an effort to spark sectarian conflict in Iraq in order to
facilitate efforts to partition Iraq according to plans drawn up by
Zionist and American strategists.
Since the US occupation of Iraq, plans of this nature were reflected
by Leslie Gelb (President Emeritus of the US Council on Foreign
Relations) in "The Three-State Solution" published in The New York
Times on 25 November 2003, in the article by Gelb and US Democratic
Senator Joseph Biden in "Unity through Autonomy in Iraq," in The New
York Times on 1 May 2006. Banking on splitting the Shi`ah in Iraq
from the rest of the country was a cornerstone of the neo-
Conservative strategy laid out in "A Clean Break" a paper drawn up
by American Zionist government officials Richard Perle, Douglas
Feith, David Wurmser, and Paul Wolfowitz in 1996 for the then
Zionist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Then in 2000 the neo-
Conservative Project for a New American Century wrote Rebuilding
America's Defenses on the basis of the "Clean Break."
But before the recent period, the idea of "the dissolution of Iraq
into a Shi`ite state, a Sunni state and the separation of the
Kurdish part" was voiced by veteran Zionist military correspondent
Ze'ev Schiff in Ha'aretz on 2 June 1982 and was a part of the divide-
and-rule strategy laid out by Zionist writer Oded Yinon in
his "Strategy for Israel in the 1980s," published in Kivunim
(Directions), A Journal for Judaism and Zionism, published by the
World Zionist Organization in occupied Jerusalem in February 1982.
(It was translated by the late anti-Zionist writer and activist
Israel Shahak and is widely available.)
Iraqi writers issue appeal, denouncing plans to split Iraq
under "federation" scheme.
Dozens of Iraqi journalists and writers issued a declaration
entitled "Not in our name" calling on Iraqis in every part of the
country and from every religious and ethnic background to join
together to block the effort aimed at "federalizing" their country.
Quds Press, which obtained a copy of the appeal, reported that the
writers and journalists stated that, "the federation plan that has
been proposed is nothing but a plot, precisely woven without our
people's knowledge in order to destroy them by dividing them into
little feuding states that will exhaust their strength and bring
down the Iraqi state that has the potential to turn into a great and
mighty power that could threaten the interests and ambitions of the
colonialist west and its creature the Hebrew state in Palestine."
The statement pointed out that federations are usually a way
gradually to unite separate entities so as to strengthen all the
component parts through greater unity. "It has never happened in
the history of the world," the statement said, "that a centralized
state should be split up and turned into a federation. In any case,
what is being proposed in Iraq is the partition of the Iraqi state
into little statelets, linked by something called a federal union
that has no relationship with the concept of a federal state.
Resistance bombs blast US troops in western Baghdad's al-`Amiriyah,
sparking gunbattle early Monday afternoon.
In a dispatch posted at 1:36pm Makkah time Monday afternoon,

The correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported a source in the
Iraqi puppet police as saying that US helicopter gun ships opened
fire with their machine guns on a group of civilians who were
guarding an intersection. Eleven youths were killed, three of them
brothers, and another six were wounded.
The source said that the victims had been standing and gathering at
the intersection and were keeping watch there because of the
sectarian fighting that had been going on in the nearby town of
Balad in recent days.
The body parts of the slain youths were found in various farm fields
around the area, blown apart by the heavy machine gun bullets fired
by US helicopters.
Diyala Province.

part of an effort to spark sectarian conflict in Iraq in order to
facilitate efforts to partition Iraq according to plans drawn up by
Zionist and American strategists.

Resistance attacker kills two puppet policemen in Kirkuk.
An Iraqi Resistance fida'i fighter wearing an explosive belt blew

drivers of the three trucks – a Turk and two Iraqis working for the
US occupation – were killed in the attack. Afterwards, US troops
surrounded the area where the ambush took place.
