Two Resistance bombs blast Iraqi puppet police in southern Baghdad.
In a dispatch posted at 2:30pm Makkah time Thursday afternoon, Mafkarat al-Islam reported that an Iraqi Resistance bomb exploded by a patrol of Iraqi puppet police in the al-Ilam neighborhood of southern Baghdad.
The correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported eyewitnesses in al-Ilam as saying that the blast destroyed one patrol vehicle, killing two puppet policemen and wounding five more of them.
Then after puppet police reinforcements arrived on the scene of the bombing, a second Resistance bomb exploded. That blast damaged a patrol vehicle and wounded two puppet policemen.
Jaysh al-Mahdi militia, loyal to Shii religious leader Muqtada as-Sadr, issues warning to US in connection with recent American offensive on as-Sadr movement.
Supporters of Shii religious leader Muqtada as-Sadr issued a warning to the United States against attacking their movements Jaysh al-Mahdi militia. The statement also denounced claims made by the US and media supporting the occupation that the Jaysh al-Mahdi had been involved in sectarian attacks against Sunni Iraqis.
Quds Press quoted the statement as warning US troops against attacking the Jaysh al-Mahdi militia who are deployed in eastern Baghdad and areas in southern Iraq. The statement also warned the Americans against accusing them of killing or driving out Sunni Iraqi civilians and of asserting that Shii shrines run by the Jaysh al-Mahdi were serving as secret prisons and torture chambers.
The pro-American Shii sectarian Badr Brigades, which now form the backbone of the puppet security services working for the US occupation in Iraq, have been proven on repeated occasions to be abducting, torturing, and killing Sunnis. Even the American occupation authorities felt compelled to arrest the puppet Interior Minister Bayan Jabr Sulagh, who is a commander in the Badr Brigades, briefly in December 2005, in connection with the discovery of secret prisons and torture chambers run by his ministry. Muqtada as-Sadr by contrast has publicly opposed sectarianism and sent his Jaysh al-Mahdi militamen to protect Sunni religious sites from attacks in the midst of sectarian violence sparked by the mysterious bombing of the Imam Ali al-Hadi shrine in Samarra on 22 February 2006.
Despite this clear difference or rather perhaps because of it US Ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad singled out the Jaysh al-Mahdi as a source of sectarian violence in Iraq in a Washington Post interview published on 24 March 2006. Khalilzad tried to use the sectarianism being stirred up by the pro-American Badr Brigades as a justification an American crackdown on Muqtada as-Sadrs Jaysh al-Mahdi.
Quds Press reported that the statement issued by Muqtada as-Sadrs supporters at the Office of the Martyr as-Sadr declared: The as-Sadr office in Karbala denounces the brazen attack by occupation troops and puppet forces, who for a pittance have sold out their homeland to the occupier, in which they arrested and raided homes of members of the Jaysh al-Mahdi.
The statement warned the US forces that there would be consequences if they continued their attacks on the followers of the Jaysh al-Mahdi. The statement held the Iraqi puppet regime responsible for the attacks, saying that it stood by with hands folded as the attacks on Iraqis and members of the as-Sadr movement took place. The statement demanded the release of all the Muqtada as-Sadr followers and Jaysh al-Mahdi members arrested in the sweeps.
Quds Press noted that on Tuesday, 4 April, the US landed troops in various parts of Karbala and southern Baghdad and arrested a number of members of the Jaysh al-Mahdi militia, accusing them of carrying out killings and robberies of civilian areas.
American-staged trial of President Saddam Husayn continues Thursday without Saddam Husayn being present. Former Judge in 1982 trial refutes American claims of abuse of justice in case against attempted assassins.
The American-staged trial of Iraqi President Saddam Husayn resumed on Thursday but for a reason that went unexplained, President Saddam Husayn himself did not appear in the courtroom.
The proceedings continued with the testimony of Awwad Ahmad al-Bandar, the Chief Judge of the Revolutionary Court who presided over the 1982 trial of 148 residents of the town of ad-Dujayl who were convicted of participation in a plot to assassinate the Iraqi President.
According to an Agence France Presse (AFP) monitored by Mafkarat al-Islam, al-Bandar told the American-run court that the suspects in that proceeding were fairly tried, despite the fact that Iraq was in a state of war with Iran at the time.
We were at war and the ad-Dujayl case was connected with the war, al-Bandar pointed out. They [the defendants in the 1982 trial] admitted that they did what they did in order to overthrow the government so that Iran could occupy Iraq. Some of them also admitted that they took part in the [Iranian] Islamic Revolution.
Even though their trial took place against the backdrop of the war with Iran, it was conducted respectfully and I do not think we violated any legal rules, former Judge al-Bandar told the US-run court.
Lawyers for al-Bandar presented documents proving that the ad-Dujayl suspects had plotted not only to assassinate Saddam Husayn but to overthrow the regime. The documents also demonstrated that all the accused in that case were adults, in contrast to claims by the US-installed regime.
Al-Bandar said, the Revolutionary Court carefully studied all the evidence. It always strove to exonerate the innocent.
The accused had all their rights and were defended by their lawyers, al-Bandar told the US-run court. I am a judge and my deep conscience does not allow the sentencing of someone under 20 to death. Al-Bandar noted that a team of 17 defense attorneys had defended the accused before the Revolutionary Court in 1982.
Former Judge al-Bandar also told the American-installed court that: All the 148 accused were present when the judgment was delivered against them, contradicting American claims that 46 of the defendants had been murdered in jail.
Rauf Rashid Abd ar-Rahman, the American-appointed Judge in the trial of Saddam Husayn and several other Iraqi leaders being held prisoner by the US occupation forces, allowed al-Bandars testimony to go on for a couple of hours and then adjourned the court until Wednesday, 12 April 2006.

An-Najaf.
Mysterious bomb kills 13 civilians near tomb of Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib in an-Najaf.

In contrast to Iraqi Resistance attacks, which have clear and defined targets occupation troops or armed forces, officials, or collaborators with the US-installed puppet regime this attack appeared to be targeted exclusively on civilians at one of the most important Shii shrines in occupied Iraq. Such mysterious attacks are widely viewed as a part of an Anglo-American effort to rescue their failing fortunes in Iraq by sparking a sectarian civil war in the country enabling them to fulfill their plans of partitioning the country along ethnic and religious lines.
