IRAQI 'BLOGGERS' SHARE THEIR JOY AND THANKS TO THE U.S.(Read it first hand before the media twist)
12.15.03 | Myself

Posted on 12/15/2003 7:29:49 AM PST by fight_truth_decay

Here's what Ays, blogger, of Iraq at a glance had to say Sunday, December 14, 2003
A GREAT DAY........... :

I don't know what to say.. I am confused.. no... I am very happy.. I am very happy.. .. I am very happy.. .. I am very happy.. .. I am very happy.. .. I am very happy.. .. I am very happy..This is the end of tyranny.. congratulations .. a great day.. for Iraqi and all the good people.. share us our great day.. I can't express my feelings.. thanks to the coalition forces and all the honest people who helped in that great operation...thank you thank you thousand times..Huhhhhhuaaa... look at the monkey!!

Then there's Sam/Hammurabi:

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL AND HAPPY NEW YEAR (2004)
WITHOUT THE TYRANT!
It is a VICTORY TO ALL OF US.

The Greatest Jeneration, blogger, states: (the source of this story) "Sam may become the Drudge of the new Iraq; he had the big story first (beating the real Drudge by hours and hours, I might add.

Alaa at The Mesopotamian calls it the "Mother of All Days:"

"Before this, I prayed the traditional prayers of thanksgiving. That I, and the Iraqi people should see this day! This, surely, is the mother of all days for us. The heroes of our valiant Pesh Mergas, and the heroes of the U.S. Fourth division have done it. Now is the time to unleash the Iraqi Counter Terror; now is the time to go for the kill. Let us go after them. Don’t lose this moment. They want to recant and live in equality with the people? they have a chance - otherwise they will have to go. I am too overwhelmed with emotion to write coherently; please excuse me. The foul mouths of the enemies of our people everywhere and the neighboring vultures and hyenas be stuffed with dirt; we will come after you; your time will come. Long live the great alliance of Mesopotamia and the United States of America and her allies. Now is the time, now is the time; Do not delay; unleash the Counter Terror.
God Bless Iraq; God Bless America; God bless the Allies.
And above all Praise be to Allah the Almighty the Avenger.

Salaam

And the sheer happiness of Omar, author of the blog Iraq the Model:

The big brother in a small hole
Horrraaaaa
It's the justice day.
I'm speechless.
I'm crying.
The tyrants' hour has finally came. I went down to the streets to share the joy with my brothers. This is our day, the day of all the oppressed and good people on earth. Tears of joy filled the eyes of all the people. Saddam, the coward, hides in a hole, shaking in fear from being captured. Not a single bullet was fired, without any resistance, God, he was even cooperative! The mighty tyrant, who exploited all our country's fortune for his personal protection, surrenders like the cowered I expected him to be. Yes, he should be prosecuted in Iraq. We will not allow anything else. We want to see him in a cage bending more and more, humiliated more and more, just as he forced all the Iraqis to bend to him, like they were his slaves. But we will not be like him, we will give him a fair trail, and he will get just what he deserves, although I have no idea what does he really deserve. It's indeed an inauspicious day for all the tyrants. Let them know that their days are near too. This is the day of all Iraqi martyrs who were slaughtered just to please his sick lust for blood. Rest in peace my brothers. The paradise is yours and the disgrace and hell is for all the tyrants on earth. Thank you American, British, Spanish, Italian, Australian, Ukrainian, Japanese and all the coalition people and all the good people on earth.
God bless the 1st brigade.
God bless the 4th infantry division.
God bless Iraq.
God bless America.
God bless the coalition people and soldiers.
God bless all the freedom loving people on earth.
I wish I could hug you all.

A.Y.S blogger of Iraq at a Glance is male and lives in Baghdad. He works as a dentist. Today he responds to the e-mails he has received from his readers:

Guess I cheated a little in the posting of blogger stories injecting myself as author. But, I knew this story would be tossed out by FR, under posting guidelines; as bloggers are not able to be a Source URL. It has happened to me before. I wanted to pass on these Iraqi bloggers and hope Freepers enjoy reading first hand what Iraqi bloggers have to say on Iraq after the liberation.


The end, I believe, justifies my means. Enjoy!

Thank you for posting this precious thread. What joy we can read. I doubt it will ever appear in the mainstream news, which makes it all the more valuable.

Just as we expected, he was dragged out of a narrow cellar close to a small mudhut near his former stronghold in Tikirit. The timing was a surprise to Iraqis. I was beginning to doubt that he would be captured at all.

Yesterday afternoon I was still asleep when I sensed a commotion in the house, there was gunfire outside. I was a bit reluctant to get up and check since there was no power. Nabil stormed into my room shouting hysterically "They caught Saddam! They caught Saddam!". "Yeah Sure" I responded and covered my head with the blanket. I slept for another hour but the increasing gunfire and excited voices made it difficult. I got up and went out in the street, everything looked normal. I stumbled to my grandmother's house where everyone was huddled in front of the tv watching Al-Jazeera. The news were still uncomfirmed, so we waited impatiently for Bremer's press conference. When he announced "We got him" everyone in the room cheered out loud. The following video of Saddam in his long hair and beard was a shock to us all. My grandmother burst in tears.

I loved them! Maybe you cheated, I don't know since I never post threads, but if you did, I am happy I got to read them before they are tossed!

A blogger is not considered a source FR likes posted in the URL source: thus, I went in the back door and posted the credits within the story to the links and authors used.
I thought these stories deserved a place on FR. Thanks for reading them.

Many show their distaste for bloggers; but I find them more grass roots when you want more..some very good bloggers out there. I invited the dentist to author in FR.
Perhaps he will respond.
