The Code Pink Killing Fields: How Far Left Activists & Barbara Boxer Aided Enemy Agents in Iraq
Posted by Jim Hoft on Monday, October 18, 2010, 5:08 AM
It should be noted that the so-called “peace activists” at the Code Pink organization are anything but peace activists. These anti-American radicals and Marxists supported the mass murderer Saddam Hussein who ran one of the most brutal regimes in the 20th century. Code Pink activists currently support the illegitimate Iranian regime, the Marxist Chavez regime in Venezuela and have even met with Taliban Islamists.
“Code Pink Kills American Troops Giving Money to Terrorists” (Target of Opportunity photo)
On November 22, 2004, the socialist anti-American group Code Pink sent out a plea to supporters to help send assistance to the “refugees” from Fallujah, Iraq.
Today, as CODEPINK was busily preparing a year-end humanitarian mission to Iraq, we received an urgent message. It was from our dear friend Dahr Jamail, an amazing American independent journalist who has been risking his life to get the true story of Fallujah to the American public:
“I have just come from a refugee camp in Baghdad with families from Fallujah. The suffering is beyond description. It’s worse than anything you’ve read or anything I’ve written so far.
This is a humanitarian crisis. They need medicines for their camp and the other camps immediately. We have an organization set up of doctors who can distribute the medicines and supplies. BUT WE NEED THEM NOW! THIS CANNOT WAIT!”
Solidarity,
Dahr
The next day, on November 23, 2004, Code Pink announced that they had raised nearly $20,000 in one day for “refugess” from Fallujah.
Yesterday we put out an urgent call for aid to refugees from Fallujah, with an initial goal of raising $20,000. The response was amazing. From a $10 donation from a high school student to a $1,000 gift from a medical doctor, the compassion of the American people began to shine through the fog of war. In less than 24 hours, we surpassed our goal and that’s just the online donations!
In addition, a humanitarian aid group donated 300 pounds of priority medical supplies, Cliff Bar is donating high-protein bars for the children, an Iraqi-American returning home offered to be our on-the-ground liaison and people are pledging to do holiday house parties to raise more funds.
When we contacted journalist Dahr Jamail to tell him to good news, he was elated. “Holy cow, $20,000 already? I’m catching my breath. This is so beautiful.” Dahr had just returned from a visit to the Red Crescent, who said they could only care for “at most” 60,000 refugees. “This leaves at least 140,000 refugees, mostly women and children, with no support,” said Dahr. “These supplies will be their lifeline.”
On December 3, 2004, Code Pink announced that after only one week into their campaign they had sent $30,000 to Iraq. Their contact Dahr Jamail claimed the donations bought blankets, warm clothing, food, portable heaters, cooking stoves, stove and heater fuel, antibiotics, needles, sterile gloves, pain medications, gauze, basic first aid materials, water tanks, pipes, water pumps and water purification materials. Dahr Jamail and Code Pink also claimed that these supplies had already distributed to the refugees. The radicals at Code Pink must run an amazingly efficient operation. We’ll discuss Dahr Jamail below.

Code Pink later reported that they had collected $100,000 in donations. It was also reported that “humanitarian groups” such as the Middle East Children”s Alliance and Operation USA contributed $500,000 worth of medical supplies.
Code Pink was ready to deliver their supplies and donations to the Fallujah refugees. But there was a problem. They needed assistance from Congress to approve their trip. In stepped Senator Barabara Boxer (D-CA) along with Representatives Raul Grijalva (D-AZ), Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) and Henry Waxman (D-CA). These radical members of Congress signed letters to approve their trip to Jordan and the Iraqi border.
These Congressional members wrote this letter despite the fact that in September 2004, Code Pink participated in and just endorsed the Beirut communique, which supported “the right of the people of Iraq and Palestine to resist the occupations” and called for “the unconditional withdrawal of US and “coalition” forces from Iraq.”
With their signatures on the Beirut Communique Code Pink condoned the murder of US soldiers and Marines.
Yet Barbara Boxer and Congressional leftists approved of their trip to the Iraqi border.

On December 20, 2004, Code Pink announced their trip to Iraq to deliver supplies to “refugees.” They claimed the November US attack, which virtually leveled the city and left some 2,000 Iraqis and 71 U.S. soldiers dead, also created thousands of refugees, who are living without adequate food, water, electricity and healthcare. On that same day they announced that they would deliver the donations to the Iraqis in late December. They later released a report on their trip to the border.
During our week-long exchange with Iraqis, we heard allegations of US atrocities that made Abu Graib seem like childish pranks: a woman raped in full view of other prisoners, who is now seeking permission from religious leaders to kill herself; a seven-year-old girl, left momentarily in the car while her father stopped at the market, screaming and clawing at the window while a US tank crushed the vehicle; a mother watching in horror as the troops raided her home in the middle of the night, shot her son in the chest and then stomped on him as he bled to death. In Fallujah alone, thousands of civilians were killed in one brutal week. We wept together as we saw gruesome pictures of bodies burned beyond recognition, possibly from the use of napalm, and limbs eaten by dogs because anyone trying to retrieve the dead would be shot. A young Iraqi woman who risked her life taking our humanitarian aid to those too old and infirm to flee was still traumatized by the devastation she witnessed.
After successfully delivering their supplies to the “refugees” from Fallujah Code Pink founder Medea Benjamin told reporters that they had delivered the supplies “to the other side”:
“I don’t know of any other case in history in which the parents of fallen soldiers collected medicine … for the families of the ‘other side’,” said Medea Benjamin, the founding director of Global Exchange, a human rights group. “It is a reflection of a growing movement in the United States … opposed to the unjust nature of this war,” she said.
The Code Pink website includes a list of the radical America-haters who met with them in Jordan and at the Iraqi border. The list includes a who’s who of radical American leftists and a list of so-called Iraqi doctors who were invited to the meetings to talk about the supposed war crimes by the US military in Iraq.
Code Pink’s Contact in Iraq – Dahr Jamail
Code Pink and their contact in Iraq Dahr Jamail claimed they were able to collect donations, purchase supplies and donate those supplies to “refugees” in a war zone in one week. If this is true they should be in distribution instead of activism. But, this isn’t the only thing about Dahr Jamail that makes him an exceptional far left activist and reporter. American Dahr Jamail also has incredible terrorist contacts and claims he traveled through the violence in Iraq unscathed as he met with terrorists and terror leaders.
Dahr Jamail wrote about Fallujah in April 2007 in his “Interview with the Mujahadeen” where he interviewed Islamic terrorists.
Tonight, I await a mujahedeen fighter, sipping tea impatiently until the door opens at the pre-set location.
He enters the room, his presence larger than that which his tall height and bulky body projects.
A blue ski mask hides his face, and he chooses to be called “Ahmed” to protect his identity. With a deep, course voice he introduces himself with the greeting ‘Salam Aleikum’ (Peace be upon you), and asks my translator and I to join him in sitting.
I am lucky to have been granted an interview with this man. Only by promising anonymity and having this pre-arranged has he allowed it.
“I want to tell the truth, but the media does not cooperate with the resistance. The media concentrates on the Americans, and does not care about Iraqis,” he says firmly, “This is not a rebellion, this is a resistance against the occupation.”
When asked what he thought about the Bush Administration referring to the situation in Iraq as the front lines of the “War on Terror,” Dr. Nidal had stated, “Here, one would have to distinguish between terrorism and resistance. Terror was unseen here before the invasion. In Falluja, it is not terrorism, it is resistance.”
In July 2005 Dahr Jamail interviewed another terrorist in Jordan while investigating al-Zarqawi.
“The jihad in Iraq is not just Zarqawi. It is up to Allah if we prevail, not dependent on the hand of Zarqawi. If he is killed, the jihad will continue there.”
I ask him about civilian casualties. Does he think Zarqawi cares about the killing of innocent people?
“I have had so many discussions with Iraqis to tell them that Zarqawi doesn’t instruct his followers in the killing of innocent people. If he did this, I would be the first to turn against him. He only targets the Americans and collaborators.”
…Bush officials continue to link Zarqawi to the Iraqi resistance – undoubtedly another bogus claim in that the resistance in Iraq is primarily composed of Iraqi nationalists and Ba’athist elements who are fighting to expel the occupiers from their country, not to create a global Islamic jihad.
Dahr Jamail wrote about several meetings with terrorists over the years. He also wrote about numerous undocumented atrocities that he blamed on the United States. Jamail is a favorite of the far left. He still posts his anti-American propaganda on his website.
Is Dahr Jamail on the up and up?
The Two Malcontents blog doesn’t think so and wrote this about Dahr Jamail in 2006.
The lying leftist Dahr Jamail “creates” two more mothers and their soldier son’s emails in his current piece of crap:
(A Broken, De-Humanized Military In Iraq)
Of course the emails are bullshit propaganda and solely to give a morale boost to our enemies. Jamail abhors not only America (which he usually refers to as the Evil Empire) but more specifically the American military. Jamail has changed his propaganda tactics lately to sound more sympathetic towards U.S. soldiers as being mere cannon fodder (real nice of Jamail). Those that know Jamail will tell you he’s a Marxist piece of shit and works for any enemies of U.S. soldiers. Did we mention he’s good pals with kommie ass klowns Cindy Sheehan, Medea Benjamin, Zanaib (JillCarroll), Raed Jarrar?
Front Page Magazine has more on this radical leftist:
His stories, however, were not supported by any evidence – nor even by his own photographs. He showed dozens of photos of corpses that he identified as victims of “Marine snipers,” “napalm,” and “chemical weapons,” though there was no way to verify any of this. He claimed that most of the Iraqis killed by U.S. soldiers were women and children, whose “dead and rotten bodies” had been left rotting in the streets to be eaten by dogs.
We do know that Dahr Jamail has an uncanny ability to find and interview terrorists linked to the Iraqi resistance. For some reason these killers trusted this American. Maybe it was his fierce hatred of America? Or, maybe he offered them more than just an outlet for their propaganda. Then again, maybe he’s just a liar. Or maybe Jamail is a liar, a radical and a traitor? Are we really to believe that Dahr Jamail and Code Pink gave the $600,000 worth of donations to the suffering refugees of Fallujah? Of course not.
Barbara Boxer, Raul Grijalva, Henry Waxman and Dennis Kucinich need to explain why they supported these traitors and anti-American radicals who aided the enemy and put our troops in danger.

These four have joined a very select and growing number of Demoncraps that have given comfort to the enemy. Kennedy wanted to help the Russians battle Reagan, Rockefeller told the agents of Iraq that we were coming, now these four have shamed themselves. I say shame, but it’s obvious they don’t feel any shame. they are out and out traitors.

Do these people realize the “peace” buzzword is empty rhetoric?
Redwine commented:
Jodie Evans of Code Pink was very busy in Gaza passing notes (love letters?) between Barry Hussein and the Hamas leadership, especially prior to the first terror flotilla. (Ayers and Dohrn were busy there too.) This, in itself, makes Barry Hussein, as well as Evans, traitors in collusion with terror entities and sworn enemies of the US.

Treason is giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
Andreas K. commented:
These people remind me of one man.
Gandhi.
Now before you all scream up over how great Gandhi was, etc, let me point your attention at this article:
http://tinyurl.com/3yw6a9s
And then let me include my personal “highlights” from it, as it is rather long.
1) In a speech on April 6, 1947; Gandhi again advised the destitute Hindus, “Even if Muslims decide to wipe out the Hindu race, there is no point in Hindus getting angry on Muslims. Even if they slit our throats, we should be patient and accept death. Let them rule the world, we will pervade the world and merge with it. At least we should not be afraid of death. The providence is made of life and death. Why feel unhappy about it? We will enter a new life if we face death with a smile. We will create a new Hindustan [India]. ”
2) Even after so much destruction, Gandhi was not yet satisfied. On September 23, 1947, during a prayer speech, Gandhi said, “[Even if Muslims] killed our relatives, our people, why should we be angry with anyone? Those who got killed met with a proper end. We should know that they attained heaven. Let this happen with Gods’ wish with each one of us. God should grant us this kind of death. If you want to ask God for anything, let it be this.”
3) On September 3, 1939, when Great Britain declared war on Germany, Gandhi met Lord Linlithgow (the Viceroy of India) and started weeping like a child insisting that Britain must give up arms and oppose Hitler with spiritual force. Gandhi thought that the viceroy would accept his proposal and communicate to British government. He was so much absorbed in his judgment of nonviolence that he thought that a tyrant like Hitler could be stopped by nonviolence.
4) Gandhi even told the Jews to “pray for Hitler”. It means; the Jews should have saluted Hitler and walked cheerfully into the gas chambers because that’s what Gandhi’s nonviolence dictates. Gandhi was so eager to sell his nonviolence that he wrote a letter to Hitler during July 1939 (which the government of India did not permit to go) addressing him “My friend”. Then during December 1940, Gandhi wrote another letter to his friend Hitler again addressing him “My friend” and closing his letter with “your sincere friend”. He ended the letter with a brief statement “That I address you as a friend is no formality. I own no foes.” In this love letter Gandhi mentioned, “We have no doubt about your bravery or devotion to your fatherland, nor do we believe that you are the monster described by your opponents”.
My personal favorite:
5) Gandhi also put forward a call to the raped women not to fight the rapists. “The women must know how to die … women [should] face death bravely and without a murmur. Then only would the terrible killing now going on, stop.”
Gandhi is pretty much the embodiment of the “spirit” of “nonviolence” in Europe.
No surprise we’re going down.

for those of us who have long memories…..nice to see the heat turned up. they probably hoped that time and the volumes of news that swamp us each day would cover their trail. betting the ranch that people would “move on”. the atmosphere is right to interject this information back into conversation.
southernsue commented:
i have often wondered why GOD would allow obama to be our president, now i know. since this man has been elected we have seen the real enemy of our country come out in the open.
we have seen who the enemies are in the senate and house. the socialists, communists, illegals, all the hate groups are now in the open. we now know that these groups, people, have just been waiting for this grand opportunity to take over.
be at the polls in nov and vote them out and then begin the clean up and send these people to their country of choice. just get them out of the USA.

cp commented:
Ghandhi was lucky because the British had in their conscience, the golden rul Jesus taught when he said, “do to others what you ….”
In places where the golden rule means nothing in the minds of people (communist, Islamist fanatics), Ghandhi will have little chance to succeed.
Peace march in Tibet, Cambodia, Tiaman square, Iran, Albania, Somalia, will have little effect. For Ghandhi’s method to make some impact, people must have in their conscience the foundations of the golden rule. In America, the peaceful protest of Dr Martin Luther King also worked but Dr Martin must also realise why it worked and be thankful the Christian heritage that motivated many white Americans to stand with him and help him achieve a dream that reflects the Christian ideals.
So, in places where the golden rule is absent from people’s conscience, it appears that there is no choice but to stand firmly especially when there is still an opportunity and when freedom is still alive.
When the window closes then what’s left for the courageous is “give me liberty or give me death!”
cp commented:
Andreas K.
thanks for bringing to my attention the foolish side of Ghandhi. I have read the good things about him and have admired him. But now I realised that Ghandhi has over worship his own ideology and strategies and failed to appreciate the foundations paved for him by Jesus. And in the end it blinded him to realities.
Andreas K. commented:
cp, I respected him. I really did. But yesterday I accidentally stumbled over this article and since then my respect for Gandhi is totally gone.
What really pissed me off was his stance on rape. So essentially, if my niece would get raped, according to Gandhi, she must not defend herself, must let the rapist do his thing and, should he chose to, let him kill her?
Excuse me, but WTF?!
This is essentially what’s happening in Europe. Our police tells us that we shouldn’t defend ourselves. This comes from the left wingers in charge, who copied their fanatism from Gandhi himself.

“It took a lot of money to keep Ghandi poor.”
Ghandi was a fraud.
Code Pink is a fraud.
It takes a lot of money for them to do their humanitarian work as well.
Nate commented:
This is ridiculous. What is even worse (poor Red Crescent, poor ‘refugees’), was the assistance the Red Crescent gave to terrorists during the whole Fallujah fight. I was an intelligence collector in the Marine Corps who endured the entire battle from November through January, and one thing was common in every terrorist safe house we busted: Red Crescent provided food supplies and USAID stock piles. If it weren’t for the Red Crescent and ‘humanitarian’ assistance providers, the Fallujah fight would have been over by Christmas. As it was, once the terrorists were tired and hungry, they just went to the designated mosque/safe house; slept, ate, recharged their batteries, grabed a weeks worth of supplies, collected a few bodies in exchange for cash, used that opportunity to scout U.S. positions, then rejoined the fight. Think I’m kidding?

How many of our troops were murdered or maimed because of the actions of these traitors?
AuntieMadder commented:
Andreas K. #13 – Thank you for sharing the bits from the piece about Ghandi. Even without them, however, you’d have gotten no disagreement from me. Since reading a year or two ago similar opinions from Ghandi, including something about not lifting a finger to protect his own family members were they to be assaulted or killed right in front of him, I wrote him off as a nutcase and coward, or, in a word, a libtard.

Right. In a more violent and hostile nation, the Great Pacifist wouldn’t have lived long enough to become famous.

Nate, thank you for your service.
We can observe similar things in Gaza, where the islamo-fascists launch their rockets from schools built by the UN and EU.
Now all here imagine that during WW2 some people with the support of politicians in the US would have gone to Japan and donated money to Hirohito and Tojo. Or they’d have gone to Nazi Germany and donated money to Hitler.
This is EXACTLY the same thing.
Exactly AuntieMadder.
And the problem is, that people, who have written this ultra-pacifist nonsense on their flags, are now in charge of our countries.
A few years ago a police officer here had to defend himself with his gun. he killed the attacker. The media and the left wing were over him within a split second tearing him to shreds. Because, how dared tihs evil officer defend his life?
In Germany police tends to “de-escalate” conflicts. They don’t enforce the law, they de-escalate. Because, well, pacifism rules Germany.
A few months ago an officer here shot an old man in the dark early morning hours because the old guy was waving around a Luger replica. It was non-firing, made of plastic. A softair gun. But the officer couldn’t know that. It was dark, and the guy was waving it around. The officer felt his life was in danger. He and his colleague warned the old guy, but eventually one of them opened fire killing the old man. Tragic, yes. But the reaction, at once was… evil police officer murders poor old guy because old guy had a toy gun. The “usual suspects” even claimed that the officer should have been able to see that it was a toy gun.
There are tons of similar cases.
The general message is: don’t defend yourself, cooperate with the criminal.
And I only say: you’ve got to be kidding me!
