Randy Rhodes: Ex Navy medic said 60% of Iraqis have NO water and those

[shance]

in the minority who are lucky enough to have electricity is only for three hours every other day(?)

Medics were not allowed to FEED THE CHILDREN, who he mentioned were starving and suffering from malnutrition.

He and other troops tried to break in the food 'pantry' and they weren't able to so they would save their rations and food left over from meals for the kids.

He said medics were told not to treat any women and children UNLESS they witnessed them being wounded??

The caller said it's a war zone and the people are victims of this war zone merely because they are Iraqis. Not to mention the troops who are stuck in the war zone as well and are being given orders like the ones mentioned.

This is liberation?

Randi noted it's "planned chaos".

1. " U.S. Occupation Troops Use Water to Coerce Iraqi Residents"

i didn't post the following story yesterday because i could not vouch for the authenticity of the claims it made ... in light of your post, i thought the story was worth presenting here ... notice that the article mentions previous UN reports that made similar allegations ...

U.S. occupation forces besieging the Iraqi town of Ramadi are using the restoration of water and other basic services as a bargaining chip to force residents to provide information leading to the arrest of resistance fighters, the Iraqi Resistance Report website said, citing a story published by the Iraqi newspaper Mafkarat al-Islam last month.

"The U.S. offers to turn on water, electricity, and provide welfare if residents inform on resistance fighters to U.S. occupation forces," the report said. On the radio, beamed to Ramadi's residents, American forces announced that they would stop raiding homes and mosques, open the roads to local people, and restore electricity and drinking water only if residents provided them with information about the locations and bases used by the resistance.

The message also warned the people of Ramadi that if they failed to cooperate with American troops, they would meet a fate similar to that of the residents of Fallujah, which was bombed last year by the occupation forces.

Similar concerns were previously reported by the U.N.'s Integrated Regional Information Network (IRIN), after the bombardment of Fallujah. On February 24, IRIN published a report that "Residents of Ramadi, the capital of Anbar Province, some 100km west of Baghdad, have started to flee the city following the latest offensive launched by U.S. Marines and the (puppet) Iraqi army."
