Baghdad/Adhamiya, Iraq - It became common in Baghdad that if a Sunni family lived in a Shia neighborhood they may be forced to leave and vice versa. Many families were forced by militias to leave their homes if they lived in a neighborhood that was predominantly made up of the other sect. Some of them lost a family member by the hands of militias which pushed them to leave their neighborhood or fled to a nearby country such as Syria or Jordan. The Iraqi government has been working on assisting some of these displaced families to return to their houses either by providing them an amount of money, or utilizing the growing Iraqi military and police to provide security in the neighborhoods they used to live in. So far the efforts of the Iraqi government have yielded only small results. It remains to be seen whether the current security situation will remain stable. Due to ongoing worries about their security, thousands of families are still living far from their neighborhood and many continue to reside outside of Iraq. One of the many areas hit hard by internal displacement is Adhamiya. More than 1000 families have been displaced from this neighborhood under the threat of death. Most of them were Shia but some of them were Sunni. The Shia families there were given the choice to become Sunni or die. For some Sunni families the reasons were different. Perhaps one of their family members worked with the Iraqi government or the United States, in some cases simply working with any foreign NGO may cause displacement. Organizations such as the Muslim Scholar's Association and the Sahwa or "Awakening" councils are endeavoring to find their own solutions to the problem in Adhamiya. The Sahwa Councils are attempting to provide security and eliminate the control of other militias or insurgents within Adhamiya, in order to provide a safe place for displaced or threatened families and encourage them to return home. The current situation in Baghdad appears to be better than it has been between 2006 and 2007, but continues to be haunted by the worries of its residents. After years of violence and uncertainty, it seems that many people simply don t have much faith that their government or other groups, whether the United States, Sahwa Forces, or others will be able to keep the peace. *** If you appreciate the insightful content provided by Alive in Baghdad, which you won t find anywhere else, please consider becoming a paying subscriber, or making a donation to Alive in Baghdad.

PlusIraqi Crackdown on Shiite Militia in Third DayIraqi Crackdown on Shiite Militia in Third DayThe Associated PressThe Iraqi military crackdown on Shiite militia in Amarah, south of Baghdad, entered its third day on Saturday with no sign of the clashes which occurred in Basra and Baghdad's Sadr City earlier this year. (June 21)[Notes:ANCHOR VOICE] [Notes:Dateline: Amarah, Iraq]It's being called Operation Promise of Peace.And it's already raising tensions in this oil-producing city south of Baghdad.It's here where soldiers searched offices of radical cleric Muqtada al-Sadr for a third straight day... The raids were sparked when militants failed to meet a deadline to surrender their weapons... or face arrest. The area is thought to be the hub of several networks smuggling weapons from Iran to Shiite extremists in Iraq. [Notes:Vid of what the Iraqi army claimed were Iranian mortars found in a nearby field.] And the government said security forces had already found large weapons caches and munitions. But followers of al-Sadr are accusing the government of **only** targeting **their** political movement. That's after soldiers arrested the Sadrist mayor of the townEven so ... Iraqi officials say so far things are peaceful .... And aren't reporting any major clashes.It's the fourth operation launched by the government against Shiite and Sunni extremists in recent months. And the first time since 2003 that the Iraqi forces have reached this remote area. ___ ___, The Associated Press.(****END****) Author: AssociatedPress Keywords: iraq amarah iraqi crackdown on shiite militia third day Added: June 21, 2008

President Bush claims that the upswing in violence in Iraq is a "positive" thing. Enjoy more at www.headzup.tv

The Iranians as well as the rest of the Arab/Muslim world and Europe will be looking to see if America can be trusted again for Obama will represent a new direction and a new method of operation. His willingness to sit with our adversaries and listen to their concerns and fears while putting forth a strong secure and positive image should deflate the windbag rhetoric coming from Ahmadinejad. Since the Iranians have decided to call Bush’s bluff over the sanctions being mounted against them, it is clear to us here at Issue Under Fire that it is a matter of national pride that is driving their insistence on pursuing nuclear energy production (weapons grade or otherwise). If we approached them from that standpoint, there might be a way to talk them down and accept some form of monitoring. To date, it has been, don’t do as we do, do as we say do. We have told them to comply or else. That approach will always be met with resistance even if only to show the world that they ain’t no punk

Sam continues his discussion with TV and Film Director and Producer, Murad Aldin Amayreh. In part two, they were discussing the subject of women and children being subjected to certain American and Islamic cultures of dress and appearances. Many of Murad's films focus on the subject of Islam and being Muslim, so we decided to have an in depth conversation to better understand what it is to be Muslim in America. We hope that you will take some time to view some of his work on his YouTube channel at: http://youtube.com/muradaldin Suicide bombers are terrorists who attach explosives to themselves, and, consequently, die along with their victims in a bombing attack. During World War II, Japanese pilots -- kamikaze pilots -- flew airplanes laden with explosives directly into enemy warships, dying in the process. The Viet Minh used suicide bombings as a form of rebellion against the French after WWII. Often referred to as "homicide bombers," the current phenomenon gained notoriety with the bombings of civilians in Israel by members of Arab militant groups, such as Hamas, Islamic Jihad and the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigade. Other guerilla groups which have employed suicide-bombing attacks include the Tamil Tigers and the Kurdistan Workers Party. In Iraq, the method of warfare was adopted in order to kill groups of soldiers. The terrorist attack on the United States on September 11, 2001, was the most widely-felt suicide bombing to date. Often terrorism is supported by organizations which both directly underwrite the terrorist activity, and promise to provide for those left behind, freeing bombers from worry about their families' futures. Islam (Arabic: الإسلام; al-'islām (help·info)) is a monotheistic Abrahamic religion originating with the teachings of the Islamic prophet Muhammad, a seventh century Arab religious and political figure. The word Islam means "submission", or the total surrender of oneself to God (Arabic: الله, Allāh). An adherent of Islam is known as a Muslim, meaning "one who submits [to God]". There are between 1 billion to 1.8 billion Muslims, making Islam the second-largest religion in the world, after Christianity. Muslims believe that God revealed the Qur'an to Muhammad, God's final prophet, and regard the Qur'an and the Sunnah (words and deeds of Muhammad) as the fundamental sources of Islam. They do not regard Muhammad as the founder of a new religion, but as the restorer of the original monotheistic faith of Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and other prophets. Islamic tradition holds that Jews and Christians distorted the revelations God gave to these prophets by either altering the text, introducing a false interpretation, or both. Islam includes many religious practices. Adherents are generally required to observe the Five Pillars of Islam, which are five duties that unite Muslims into a community. In addition to the Five Pillars, Islamic law (sharia) has developed a tradition of rulings that touch on virtually all aspects of life and society. This tradition encompasses everything from practical matters like dietary laws and banking to warfare and welfare. Almost all Muslims belong to one of two major denominations, the Sunni (85%) and Shi'a (15%). The schism developed in the late 7th century following disagreements over the religious and political leadership of the Muslim community. Islam is the predominant religion throughout the Middle East, as well as in major parts of Africa and Asia. Large communities are also found in China, the Balkan Peninsula in Eastern Europe and Russia. About 20% of Muslims live in Arab countries, 30% in the Indian subcontinent and 15.6% in Indonesia, the largest Muslim country by population. -------------------------------------- WAR ON WAR Music Video Contest! http://www.WarOnWar.INFO Over $6000 in CASH and PRIZES!

Al Jazeera's Hashem Ahelbarra reports on the government troops reported to have clashed with Shia fighters in northern Yemen, hours after a mosque was bombed. Funerals are being held for the 18 worshippers killed, who included soldiers from a nearby barracks. The attack in Sa'ada adds to the thousands already killed in a four year conflict. It also throws into a doubt a peace deal revived earlier this year.

Baghdad/Abu Dsheer, Iraq - There are many Sunni Families living in Hawr Rajab, and a great number were attacked by people wearing black uniforms similar to the uniform that the Mehdi Army is known to wear, which is also considered similar to the uniform worn by members of Al-Qaeda in Iraq. The Sahwa forces are gathered in Hawr Rajab trying to protect those families from being attacked during the night or the early hours of the morning. Several attacks happened to families living in Hawr Rajab occurring like raids. When men in black uniforms attack a family they often kidnap the father or the brother or sometimes the whole family, and it is normal to find the family member dead after several days. These actions pushed some families to flee Hawr Rajab and move to a nearby area called Abu Dsheer which seems to be demonstrating ongoing solidarity within Iraq society, as the families who spoke with Alive in Baghdad are Sunni families that fled from Hawr Rajab to Abu Dsheer, which is known to be a majority Shi'a neighborhood. Since the Sahwa force was established in Hawr Rajab there have been a number of massacres, demonstrating the ongoing instability that discourages many displaced families from returning home. Hawr Rajab was controlled by Al-Qaeda and used to be known as a major area under Al-Qaeda's control. In the beginning they targeted anyone who worked with the United States military, and after awhile, Al-Qaeda started to establish rules to be followed by the people living therem like men are not allowed to wear shorts have a short beard, and for all women they must wear a veil on their head when they go out of their homes. The people lof Hawr Rajab liked the idea of the Sahwa Forces and many people joined that force in order to get Al-Qaeda out of their area. Al-Qaeda decided to retaliate against this behavior of people living there and to show them that Al-Qaeda is still strong and still controlling the area. Members Al-Qaeda began to assassinate heads of the tribes that joined Al-Sahwa, and the young people that joined, in order to push them away from the Sahwa. One of the methods of assassinations was to behead the kidnapped person and put the victim's head on their chest, and leave the body in front of their family's ho,e By early 2008 Al-Qaeda had burned and destroyed some houses for random people and killed people only for belonging to a certain tribe that agreed with the Sahwa method and that reason pushed people to flee to anywhere and made many go to a Shi'a neighborhood just to stay alive. *** If you appreciate the insightful content provided by Alive in Baghdad, which you won t find anywhere else, please consider becoming a paying subscriber, or making a donation to Alive in Baghdad.

George Hassan says there is a basic conflict between Iran's Persian past and current Islamic regime. He says Islam was forced on Persians, and they aren't happy about it. Plus, Hassan and Jeff Schweitzer reflect on America's foreign policy toward Iran.

Mulla Bassim Karbalaei recites this eulogy for Imam Hassan (as) on the occasion of the anniversary of his martyrdom, over 1300 years after death. Imam Hassan was the blessed grandson of the Holy Prophet Mohammed (saw), and whom Shia Muslims believe to be the second Imam and successor to the Holy Prophet. Imam Hassan was oppressed by the people and by the government of the time, to the extent that his own wife poisoned him. At his burial, arrows were fired by the enemy that hit his coffin and mutilated his dead body. Imam Hassan's tribulations throughout his life are an inspiration to millions around the world, from many different religions and schools of thought, and millions mourn him, as if he died yesterday. باسم الكربلائي This eulogy is a remembarance of the family of Mohammed and their struggles and oppression. The chest beating is just a cultural way of mourning and grieving, but its foundation represents joining the family of Mohammed in their tragedy and creates a sense of mourning, also showing that love for them is important, pure, and rewardable by Allah (s.w.t.). هذه اللطمية ذكرى لأهل بيت الرسول محمد (ص)و جهودهم و الظلم الذي اصابهم . و اللطم هو طريقة تقليدية لإظهار الحزن ، و أساسه يمثل الإرتباط بأهل بيت محمد (ص)و مأساتهم ، كما يجعل جو الحزن . بالإضافة الى انه يبرهن ان حبهم امر مهم و نقي .. و الله سيجزي المحبين خيراً ..

The world community was first introduced to Imam Khomeini towards the end of 1978 after he was exiled to France for his opposition to the monarchy of Iran. It was from Neauphle-le-Chateau, on the outskirts of the French capital Paris, that Imam Khomeini attained worldwide media coverage while he delivered his severe statements in opposition to the United States of America and orchestrated his final strike against the Shah of Iran, Mohammed Reza Pahlavi. He was acclaimed as one of the greatest pioneers of Islamic revival in the 20th century. His pictures filled the front pages of newspapers and took the headlines in newsbulletins; pictures that were unknown to millions around the world beforehand, especially in the West - with his white beard and black turban - as if someone from the depths of time, from a book of history or an ancient tale, everything about him was unique and new; even his name -- Ruhollah, Spirit of God.
