Western anti-war protester confront US marines in Baghdad

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Wednesday April 09, 2003 14:50author by Andrew Report this post to the editors

I'm watching BBC News24 here which is transmitting live from the square outside the Palestine hotel. An Iraqi crowd are trying to pull down a huge statue of Saddam. Meanwhile a western anti-war protester (british?) has actually confronted the marines there. After an argument with a marine he was pulled back into a Humvee by other men from his units.

The protester was described as a young British women in a black T-shirt shouting 'cowards, cowards' at the marine who was swearing back at her.

In terms of analysis its interesting that this exchange was happening in the middle of a crowd of Iraqi tearing down the Saddam statue. Some of them spoke English as a couple gave phone interviews
around this time.

Its nice to see that there are protesters right on the scene still supporting the Iraqi peoples' desires to be oppressed and tortured.

Except that as pointed out she was surrounded by Iraqi busy pulling down his statue at least some of whom would have understood what was being said. If they agreed with your analysis they probably would have linched her. They didn't.

I presuming this is the same woman who, interviewed on Lebanese satellite TV, said that Iraq was free until the Marines arrived. Presumably the statue decapitators were having too much of a good time to pay attention to idiots like that.
