Mosul.

Helicopter downed, five US troops reported killed in two Resistance attacks Saturday, Sunday.

Iraqi Resistance forces in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul carried out two attacks in 24 hours on the left bank of the Tigris River in the city near the an-Nabi Yusuf Mosque, bringing down one American Apache helicopter and killing three US troops.

An Iraqi Resistance fighter fired a shoulder-launched surface-to-air rocket at a US Apache helicopter near the al-Ma‘arid area of western Mosul. The missile scored a direct hit on the aircraft, destroying it instantly and killing its crew. The helicopter had been on a reconnaissance mission, Mafkarat al-Islam reported.

Other US helicopters tried to hunt down the Resistance fighter who shot down the Apache but failed to find him and succeeded only in opening fire indiscriminately at civilians who were near the crash site to prevent them from approaching the wreckage. After that, several US vehicles and Bradley armored vehicles arrived and surrounded the area. The US troops then recovered the bodies of the two crewmen and the wreckage of the helicopter.

In a separate incident, Iraqi Resistance fighters armed with light and medium weapons, including PKS machine guns and RPG7 rocket-propelled grenades, attacked a column of several American Humvees and three US armored vehicles on the left bank of the Tigris River near the an-Nabi Yunus Mosque in the west of the city. The Resistance fighters destroyed one of the armored vehicles completely and disabled one Humvee. Three US troops were killed and three more wounded in the attack, Mafkarat al-Islam reported.

Residents of the area told the Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent in Mosul that the Resistance fighters withdrew from the area having suffered no losses in their ranks. But the US troops, as is their habit, responded to the ambush by opening fire indiscriminately at civilians and nearby houses, wounding two civilians, one of them severely, and inflicting material damage on the houses.

An-Najaf Province.

An-Najaf.

Iraqi puppet regime cancels US$7 million deal to import vegetable oil from Jordan in keeping with pro-American Shi‘i cleric’s fatwa to boycott Arab countries.

In keeping with a religious ruling issued by pro-American Shi‘i clerical authority ‘Ali as-Sistani on Wednesday, 14 September, calling for Iraq to boycott neighboring Arab countries, the Iraqi government has cancelled a deal worth US$7 million to import vegetable oil from Jordan.

The Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent in an-Najaf reported that a source in the religious hierarchy in an-Najaf had been informed of the cancellation in keeping with the religious edict (fatwa). According to the source, the contract for the vegetable oil ﾐ an item supplied to the Iraqi population by the government in exchange for ration coupons ﾐ had gone to suppliers “in another country” even though the agreement on the imports had already been concluded.

The vegetable oil was supposed to enter Iraq before the start of the Islamic fasting month of Ramadan, due to begin on about 5 October this year.

Seeking confirmation of the story, the Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent in Baghdad contacted a source in the administrative section of the US-installed puppet “Iraqi Ministry of Trade.” The source confirmed that the agreement between Iraq and Jordan had indeed been cancelled after the fatwa. The source said that his “Ministry” had justified the cancellation on the pretext of “production defects” in the Jordanian oil, which would amount to an imposition of a ban on Jordanian oil from now on.

The source noted that the level of economic exchange between Iraq and Saudi Arabia and Syria were much less than the trade between Iraq and Jordan, and that a boycott, if implemented, would therefore have a minimal effect on those other two Arab countries. The source said that a boycott of Syria, for example, could take the form of a ban on Syrian truck drivers from entering Iraq.

In any case, the source told Mafkarat al-Islam, any boycott would be carried out using economic pretexts such as “low quality” or “high price” or “the balance of the volume of trade between the two countries” but the real reason, which would not be stated openly, would be the as-Sistani fatwa, which the Shi‘i sectarian politicians now installed at the helm in US-occupied Iraq, would take as an unbreakable rule.

Meanwhile, a Shi‘i religious authority associated with Muqtada as-Sadr disclosed on Sunday that as-Sistani had issued his fatwa calling for a boycott of neighboring Arab countries after the US-installed politicians in occupied Baghdad had called on him to issue such an edict (see story below).

(See also “‘Ali as-Sistani issues fatwa calling on Iraq to boycott Arab states, rather than ‘Israel.’” in Iraqi Resistance Report, Wednesday, 14 September 2005.)

Shi‘i religious leader denounces as-Sistani fatwa calling for boycott of Arab countries.

Shi‘i religious leader Fadil al-Asadi of the Muqtada as-Sadr office told the Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent that the religious ruling (fatwa) issued by Shi‘i religious authority ‘Ali as-Sistani last Wednesday in which he called for a boycott of surrounding Arab states, only served to widen the gap between Iraqi Shi‘ah and the Arab peoples, most of whom are Sunni.

Fadil al-Asadi told Mafkarat al-Islam that the ruling by as-Sistani, in which the pro-American Shi‘i cleric called for a political and economic embargo on neighboring Arab states on the pretext that they are “exporting terror and terrorists” to Iraq, “was not in fact a religious ruling or a ruling on Islamic law, but rather only pre-planned political ruling.”

Al-Asadi pointed out that as-Sistani issued the fatwa a few days after Shi‘i politicians and leaders of the pro-American puppet regime in the country demanded such a ruling from him.

Al-Basrah Province.

Al-Basrah.

Resistance attack leaves two British soldiers dead, one wounded in al-Basrah Sunday.

In a dispatch posted at 2:32pm Mecca time Sunday afternoon, Mafkarat al-Islam reported that an Iraqi Resistance fighter drove an explosives-laden motorcycle into a joint British-Iraqi puppet army patrol on al-‘Ashshar Street in the middle of al-Basrah.

The al-Basrah correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported that a source in the Iraqi puppet army addressed a number of Iraqi journalists concerning the incident ant told them that a Resistance fighter had driven a motorcycle bomb into the joint patrol, destroying one vehicle belonging to the Iraqi puppet army and disabling one British military vehicle. The spokesman said that two British soldiers were killed in the attack and a third wounded. Three Iraqi puppet army troops belonging to the Eighth Brigade in al-Basrah were also killed.

The correspondent noted that although the Iraqi puppet army had admitted the attack and the casualties, the British had still made no announcement about either at the time of reporting.
