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 illegitimateIranian regime, the Marxist Chavez regime in Venezuela and have even met with Taliban Islamists.

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.
swenbwrToday, 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,
DahrThe 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 RepresentativesRaul 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.
