Saddam's men may be behind brutal attacks

Monday, January 10, 2005

By = Borzou=20 Daragahi, Special to the Post-Gazette

BAGHDAD, Iraq -- The murder scene had the markings of a = gangland=20 slaying, but the motive was not money, revenge or a drug deal gone = sour.

Hadi Saleh, a 56-year-old labor rights advocate and official of = Iraq's=20 Communist Party, affectionately known by friends as "Abu Furat," = was found=20 strangled in his home with a steel wire, his face beaten to a = pulp, his=20 hands bound behind his back.

Saleh's files, containing the names and addresses of colleagues = in both=20 the party and the labor federation he led, were stolen, his humble = home=20 ransacked.

The scene resembled the interrogation rooms of deposed = President Saddam=20 Hussein's security forces, whom officials suspect. Saleh may or = may not=20 have given them information; his files certainly did.

"The people who did this are very clearly members of the Baath = Party=20 from the former regime," said Mohammad Jassem Abad, a leader of = the=20 Communist Party, which is participating in the upcoming = parliamentary=20 elections that the insurgents violently oppose.

"The way they killed him makes it very clear they're the ones = who did=20 this," he said. "It is their methods. His assassination wasn't = random. It=20 was perfectly chosen."

Twenty months after the U.S. invasion of Iraq, the country's=20 increasingly brutal insurgency remains a shadowy phenomenon. But = its=20 tactics and targeting are becoming more sophisticated and precise, = leading=20 many Iraqi and U.S. officials to believe that Saddam's old = security=20 apparatchiks have asserted control to settle old scores and = destabilize=20 the Jan. 30 elections.

"These people have blood on their hands and are murderers," = said one=20 high-level justice ministry official, who asked not to be named. = "They=20 want everyone hiding behind walls, so they can control the = streets."

Most of the targets are Shiites and Kurds in the new Iraqi = security=20 forces or political leadership, including the Communists. Saddam = drew his=20 allies from among his fellow Sunnis, who know that the majority = Shiites=20 and the Kurds in northern Iraq will assume control of the national = government if the elections come off in three weeks as planned.

After a brief respite following Ramadan and the U.S.-led = assault on=20 Fallujah in early November, the violence in Iraq has returned to = fever=20 pitch.

Last week, gunmen assassinated the governor of Baghdad in a=20 professional hit that was filmed and posted on the Internet. They = also=20 killed the police chief of the capital's huge Shiite neighborhood = of Sadr=20 City.

In Mosul, the bodies of 18 young men from Baghdad believed = killed last=20 month were discovered, all shot in the head with their hands = bound. In=20 Basra, police turned up two charred, beheaded bodies in the office = of=20 election organizers. Suicide car bombers killed at least 100 = members of=20 the Iraqi security forces over the course of the week.

Insurgents issue no public statements, save for their = spectacular acts=20 of violence. They offer no political agenda, aside from driving = U.S.=20 troops out of the country.

Officials and analysts are left to divine their mix of motives = and=20 their manpower. Figures range wildly from 5,000 to 40,000 to = 200,000=20 fighters and supporters. The Interior Ministry estimates the = number of=20 former hard-core Iraqi intelligence officials as no more than = 10,000.

Even top U.S. military officials often sound bewildered by the=20 insurgency.

"There are hard-core terrorists fighting for an ideology. There = are=20 young impoverished men looking to make some money," said Lt. Gen. = Thomas=20 Metz, commander of all forces in Iraq, at a recent news = conference. "It=20 would change by province. It changes by time of year. It changes = by the=20 illumination of the moon. It changes by the weather."

The bulk of Saddam's supporters came from Sunni Arab = communities in=20 Tikrit, Mosul and Fallujah. A majority of insurgents captured or = killed=20 have been Iraqi Sunnis -- up to 95 percent of those detained, = wrote=20 military expert Anthony Cordesman of the Center for Strategic=20 International Studies in Washington, in a draft report dated Dec. = 22.

The insurgents are an ideologically mixed lot, Cordesman and = other=20 experts say. Aside from Saddam's henchmen, they include Sunni = nationalists=20 enraged by the U.S. occupation and foreign Islamic extremists -- = possibly=20 followers of Osama bin Laden or Jordanian terror leader Abu Musab = Zarqawi=20 -- who would like to drive the United States out of all Muslim = lands. Some=20 appear to be career criminals or young men willing to kill for = money.

They are organized into loose cells and keep electronic = communication=20 to minimum to avoid detection. And they follow traditional = insurgent=20 tactics, Cordesman wrote.

They attack the security forces, public officials and economic=20 infrastructure to sap public confidence in their leaders. They = attack the=20 United Nations, embassies and aid organizations to drive out the=20 international community.

They hope their acts of savagery provoke equally violent = responses from=20 occupation and interim government forces, which, in turn, would = breed more=20 insurgents and more anger toward the Americans. "The more = horrifying the=20 attack, or incident, the better," Cordesman wrote.

The insurgents' main weakness may be the diversity of their = goals. All=20 want the Americans out, but what would come afterward is unclear.

Some wish to establish an Islamic utopia modeled on the = teachings of=20 puritanical Salafi and Wahabbi strains of Sunni Islam. Others wish = to=20 reassert the secular supremacy of Iraq's Sunni Arab minority. = Others may=20 simply want anarchy to protect themselves from the wrath of those = they=20 tormented for decades.

If the insurgency has a brain, U.S. and Iraqi officials = increasingly=20 believe, it belongs to well-trained intelligence operatives of the = Saddam=20 regime, like the men believed to have tortured and killed Saleh, = or the=20 men who apparently tied up the 18 young men -- some as young as 14 = -- and=20 coldly executed them one by one.

"The violence is part of a big plan to end the democratic = process and=20 stop the elections so they can establish a new dictatorship like = during=20 Saddam Hussein's time," said Abad, of the Communist Party.

"Those criminals are wanted by the Iraqi justice system," he = said.=20 "They're very afraid that Iraq is going to have a justice system = and=20 they're going to have to stand before that justice system and be = charged=20 with killing all of our comrades."
