Skull & Bones Flag Flies With U.S. Troops in Iraq

Christopher Bollyn | April 28 2004

With the Skull & Bones pirate banner flying over U.S. forces engaged in an illegal invasion and occupation of Iraq, it should come as no surprise that nothing but lies comes from the Pentagon.

As U.S. military aircraft known as the AC-130 (Spectre) relentlessly bombard a civilian city of 300,000 with 105mm rounds, Bofors cannons, and heavy machine guns, the Pentagon calls the action "defensive."

This kind of military action killed 60 children under the age of 5 in the first days of the punishing siege, which began on April 5. More than 600 civilians were killed in the first week alone. How many innocent civilians have been killed in Fallujah may never be known, just like the Israeli raid of Jenin.

A spokesman with the Marine Air Ground Combat center in California told me that the siege of Fallujah is an offensive act, like all sieges.

Let's see: The Anglo-American invasion and occupation of Iraq is illegal and the offensive siege of a city of 300,000 people is clearly a war crime. And U.S. forces facing legitimate Iraqi resistance are on the "defensive."

This is why Skull & Bones control so much of the media, so that Americans will believe any, and every lie.

"Anti-Iraq forces attacked marines in defensive positions in Fallujah shortly after 10:00 pm (1800 GMT) tonight, again violating the current ceasefire," the 1st Marine Division said in a statement.

"Marines responded by directing precision weaponry against the enemy forces in order to defend themselves."
