The correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported eyewitnesses as saying that the attack set off explosions that could be heard a great distance away.
Baghdad.
Iraqi “commanders” of Bush − al-Maliki Offensive against Baghdad population named.
In a dispatch posted at 10:36pm Makkah time Tuesday night, Mafkarat al-Islam reported that as the launch of the awaited joint offensive by US and puppet Iraqi regime forces on Baghdad approaches, Salam Zakam az-Zawbi‘i, a prominent member of the Sunni sectarian Muslim Brotherhood and of the collaborationist “Islamic Party” announced that he would be one of the commander in the campaign.
The correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported that puppet regime officials have been saying that the count down for the launch of the offensive has already begun and that in addition to the pro-American Sunni az-Zawbi‘i, the other commanders are to be one Kurd and two Shi‘ah.
The correspondent reported that az-Zawbi‘i ran in the parliamentary “elections” staged by the US occupation forces and was then nominated by the “Islamic Party” for the role of deputy puppet prime minister for security affairs − an honorary position with no real power. Az- Zawbi‘i has occupied that post for a long period having no impact on events as the regime and its sectarian militia allies drove Sunnis out of various neighborhoods of Baghdad.
Iraqis were therefore stunned, the correspondent reported, to learn that az-Zawbi‘i had been chosen as one of the commanders in the Bush - al-Maliki Offensive, which is aimed at driving Sunnis out of Baghdad after many have already been violently expelled from Hayfa Street, and the districts of al-Hurriyah, and Baghdad al-Jadidah.
According to information available to Mafkarat al-Islam in Baghdad, the four Iraqi commanders chosen to lead the Bush − al-Maliki Offensive are:
‘Abbud Qanbar, a commander in the Shi‘i sectarian Badr Brigades.
Barham Salih, the husband of the sister of ‘Abd al-‘Aziz al-Hakim, the chief of the pro-American “Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq” (SCIRI). Salih is a Kurd who formerly held a high rank in the Kurdish separatist Peshmergah militia and took part in attacks on the Ansar al-Islam Resistance organization in northern Iraq. He was awarded a badge of honor by US forces for his service to the American occupation. Known for his ties to “Israel,” Salih has been active in “normalizing” relations between Kurds and Jews under the occupation.
Salam az-Zawbi‘i, a member of the Muslim Brotherhood, he has a Ph.D. in soil and water sciences from al-Anbar University (2000).
Ahmad Chelebi, a prominent personality on whom the US depended when it launched its invasion and occupation of Iraq. A Shi‘i, he has lived at times in Iran and at times in the US since the occupation of Iraq in 2003. He has been charged with mobilizing support among Shi‘ah in Iraq for the Bush − al-Maliki Offensive.
The correspondent reported that az-Zawbi‘i was to be the official spokesman of the offensive in an attempt to conceal the sectarian nature of the military drive. He added that the “Islamic Party” was swept by mass resignations on Tuesday following the announcement of az-Zawbi‘i’s role. Those quitting the party denounced it for “departing from its principles” and for failing to deliver on what it promised would be protection for the Sunni population if they joined the American-run “political process.”
Resistance fighters ambush US patrol 1km from “Green Zone” Tuesday as a reported 13 American troops die in Baghdad Tuesday.
In a dispatch posted at 10:10pm Makkah time Tuesday night, Mafkarat al-Islam reported that in what appeared to be one of the clearest signs yet of the collapse of American and Iraqi puppet regime authority in Baghdad, Iraqi Resistance fighters ambushed an American patrol in as-Salihiyah Tuesday, just one kilometer from the top security “Green Zone” area around the Republican Palace. Employees of the ad-Diyar satellite TV station that overlooks the Tigris River told Mafkarat al-Islam that the attack left one American soldier dead and a second wounded. Afterwards, the Iraqi Resistance fighters got away from the scene.
Also on Tuesday, four massive explosions shook the US base in the Baghdad district of al-‘Amiriyah. The correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported worshippers at the al-Firdaws Mosque as saying that the explosions went off as they were entering the mosque, located near the US base.
After the blasts clouds of smoke enveloped the sky over the area. The worshippers said that the Imam of the mosque hurried to complete the prayers, expecting that the Resistance attack on the base would be followed by the usual American deployments, raids, and searches around the area.
A second Iraqi Resistance bomb exploded by a US column on the service road to the Airport as it runs through al-‘Amiriyah. The correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported that the explosion left one American soldier dead and three more wounded.
An Iraqi Resistance bomb went off by a US patrol in Baghdad’s al-Yarmuk district, inflicting heavy damage on a US military vehicle, but the Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent reported that no information on the nature or extent of US casualties was available.
An explosives-laden car that had been parked by the side of a road in the southern Baghdad district of ‘Arab Jabbur went off by a force of American troops, killing four of them at 8am local time Tuesday morning, Mafkarat al-Islam reported.
Another Iraqi Resistance bomb exploded by a US patrol in the gardens of ‘Adnan al-Mulla, killing two American troops and wounding three more of them, Mafkarat al-Islam reported. The US soldiers then arrested the owner of the gardens and his blood-soaked body was found dumped a distance from his house.
The son of the owner of the gardens told Mafkarat al-Islam that the body of his father, who was 60 years old, had four American bullets in it. He said the US troops shot him after he refused to tell them the names of the Resistance fighters who carried out the ambush.
