Baghdad.
Iraqi Resistance pounds “Green Zone” with ferocious mortar barrage Tuesday.
In a dispatch posted at 11:08pm Baghdad time Tuesday night, the Association of Muslim Scholars of Iraq (AMSI) reported that Iraqi Resistance forces unleashed a hail of mortar shells on the top-security area around the Republican Palace in downtown Baghdad − the district that the Americans have dubbed the “Green Zone” − on Tuesday, in one of the most ferocious barrages in the last few weeks.
The AMSI reported that the Resistance blasted the “Green Zone” with about 10 mortar rounds, inflicting damage and sending plumes of smoke billowing into the sky over the 4-square-mile compound on the west bank of the Tigris River where the US and British embassies and the offices of the American installed puppet “government” are huddled behind concrete barriers, fences, and high walls. Sirens wailed all over the “Green Zone” during the Resistance attack.
Sectarian killing spree continues: 33 more bodies picked up around Baghdad on Tuesday.
In a dispatch posted on its website Tuesday, Quds Press reported that the puppet police had recovered the bodies of 33 more murder victims that had been dumped in various parts of Baghdad.
Quds Press reported puppet police sources as saying that most of the bodies were bound and blindfolded and bore signs of torture. Torture is a trademark of the Shi‘i sectarian militias and the US-backed puppet security services, most of whose personnel are drawn from the sectarian militias.
Tuesdays batch of bodies brings the total number of victims of sectarian torture and murder in the month of June to 310 according to official figures released by the puppet police. About 750 bodies were recovered in the entire month of May, Quds Press reported.
US admits three more of its soldiers killed in Iraq Monday, Tuesday.
In a dispatch posted at 1:20pm Baghdad time Tuesday afternoon, the Association of Muslim Scholars of Iraq (AMSI) reported that fighters equipped with light arms opened fire on a US patrol in eastern Baghdad on Monday, killing one American soldier.
The AMSI reported the US military as admitting that two other Americans had been killed on Monday and Tuesday morning in other battles with Resistance fighters.
Mysterious bomb reportedly kills 75 at Shi‘i mosque in Baghdad.
In a dispatch posted at 3:53pm Makkah time Tuesday afternoon, Mafkarat al-Islam reported that that a car bomb had exploded near a Shi‘i mosque in downtown Baghdad.
In its dispatch posted at 3:09pm Baghdad time Tuesday afternoon, the Association of Muslim Scholars of Iraq (AMSI) reported that a car bomb that had been parked in al-Khullani Square in central Baghdad had gone off at noon Tuesday.
The correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported the puppet police as declaring that 75 people had been killed and another 130 wounded in the powerful blast. Clouds of black smoke were seen billowing up over the scene of the explosion and gunfire was heard after the blast.
A witness told Mafkarat al-Islam that in addition to damaging the Shi‘i mosque, several cars in the area were also set ablaze. The AMSI reported that 15 private cars that had been in the vicinity were set on fire by the explosion.
Kitchen fire in “Green Zone” drives puppet “Prime Minister” into hiding Monday.
In a dispatch posted at 10:43am Baghdad time Tuesday morning, the Association of Muslim Scholars of Iraq (AMSI) reported that fire broke out in the puppet “Council of Ministers” building where the US-installed puppet “Prime Minister” Nuri al-Maliki has his office inside the top-security compound that Americans have dubbed the “Green Zone” on Monday.
The AMSI reported ‘Ali ad-Dabbagh, spokesman for al-Maliki, as saying that he was in a meeting with puppet governors at the time and had to be evacuated along with other puppet officials because of the fire, which broke out in the building’s kitchen. No injuries were acknowledged.
A brief official report claimed that a gas leak was to blame for the fire. Although the statement claimed that the blaze caused no casualties or damage, the nervous security personnel, the building’s guards, the puppet police, and the mercenary security guards all rushed to evacuate officials and employees.
Puppet police kidnap 30 high school students taking exams in Baghdad on Monday.
In a dispatch posted at 5:47am Baghdad time Tuesday morning, the Association of Muslim Scholars of Iraq (AMSI) reported that puppet “Order Protection Police” − one of the many security forces set up by the American occupation, most of whose members are drawn from the Shi‘i sectarian militias − had kidnapped 30 children from the ‘Uqbah ibn Nafi‘ Secondary School in the as-Sayyidiyah area of western Baghdad midday Monday.
AMSI sources reported that the puppet police gunmen assaulted the school as the students were busy with an exam and abducted more than 30 of them along with several teachers and took them to an unknown destination.
The sectarian death squads that double as US-backed puppet security forces take advantage of exam times to abduct large numbers of students from schools and colleges. Many are used to extort exorbitant ransoms. Many are tortured and killed as part of the effort by the sectarian militias to purge vast swaths of Iraq of Sunnis in order to pave the way to the partition of the country as envisioned in Zionist and American strategies.
Efforts to split Iraq along religious and ethnic lines are part of the plans that US and Zionist politicians have long been cultivating with a view to fragmenting the Arab region.
The idea of “the dissolution of Iraq into a Shi‘ite state, a Sunni state and the separation of the Kurdish part” was voiced by veteran Zionist military correspondent Ze’ev Schiff in Ha'aretz on 2 June 1982 and was a part of the divide-and-rule strategy laid out by Zionist writer Oded Yinon in his “Strategy for Israel in the 1980s,” published in Kivunim (Directions), A Journal for Judaism and Zionism, published by the World Zionist Organization in occupied Jerusalem in February 1982. (It was translated by the late anti-Zionist writer and activist Israel Shahak and is widely available.)
The idea of splitting the Shi‘ah in Iraq from the rest of the country was a cornerstone of the neo-Conservative strategy laid out in “A Clean Break” a paper drawn up by American Zionist government officials Richard Perle, Douglas Feith, David Wurmser, and Paul Wolfowitz in 1996 for the then Zionist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Then in 2000 the neo-Conservative Project for a New American Century wrote Rebuilding America’s Defenses on the basis of the “Clean Break.”
The American version of the strategy for a partition of Iraq appeared in the article “The Three-State Solution” published in The New York Times on 25 November 2003 by Leslie Gelb (President Emeritus of the US Council on Foreign Relations). The same idea was reiterated, this time with “bi-partisan support” in the article by Gelb and US Democratic Senator Joseph Biden in “Unity through Autonomy in Iraq,” in The New York Times on 1 May 2006.
Then on 8 October 2006 the London Sunday Times reported that the partition of Iraq along religious and ethnic lines was one of the suggestions that the Baker-Hamilton commission was advancing.
Sectarian killing spree continues: 33 bodies recovered in Baghdad Monday.
In a dispatch posted at 5:35am Baghdad time Tuesday morning, the Association of Muslim Scholars of Iraq (AMSI) reported that the Iraqi puppet police recovered the bodies of 33 more victims of murder dumped in various parts of Baghdad on Monday.
The AMSI reported puppet regime sources as saying that 26 of the victims’ bodies were dumped in the al-Karakh area: seven in the al-‘Amil neighborhood, six in as-Sayyidiyah, five in ash-Shu‘lah, three in al-Bayya‘, two in al-Ghazaliyah, two in al-‘Adl, and one in the al-Washshash neighborhood of al-Karakh.
Another seven bodies were picked up in the ar-Rusafah area: three of those in al-Waziriyah, two in Baghdad al-Jadidah, and two in Madinat ath-Thawrah − the neighborhood nicknamed “Madinat as-Sadr” after the American occupation in spring 2003.
Most of the victims had been shot to death, the puppet police reported.

The AMSI reported a source in the puppet police as saying that dozens of Resistance fighter assaulted the puppet “Shock Troop” headquarters, which was recently set up in the former al-Mutawakkil School in the al-Mu‘tasim district of Samarra’, at 8pm local time Monday afternoon. The Resistance men blasted the headquarters with all sorts of light and medium weapons as well as rocket launchers.
The source reported that as the battle raged between the Resistance and the puppet regime troops an Iraqi Resistance fighter driving an explosives-laden Kia car slammed into the headquarters and blew it up, killing five puppet “Shock Troops” and wounding eight more of them according to preliminary figures. After a half an hour of fighting, the Resistance men slipped away and the nature and extent of their casualties, if any besides the car bomber, were unknown.
The powerful blast inflicted heavy damage to the headquarters and also damaged several neighboring buildings. Emergency workers evacuated casualties to the city hospital.
The AMSI correspondent noted that it was puppet “Iraqi Interior Ministry Shock Troops (Maghawir)” who set off the bombs in the Shi‘i Shrine of the Two Imams in Samarra’ on 13 June in an effort to spark sectarian warfare so as to implement a Zionist and US plan to partition Iraq on sectarian lines.

Dhi Qar Province.
An-Nasiriyah.
Thirty-five reported dead as rival Shi‘i sectarian groups battle for control of an-Nasiriyah after British forces withdraw.
In a dispatch posted at 1:37pm Makkah time Tuesday afternoon, Mafkarat al-Islam reported that fighting between rival Shi‘i sectarian units, vying for control of the southern city of an-Nasiriyah (385km south of Baghdad), has left 35 dead and 125 wounded.
The correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported a medical source in one of the hospitals in an-Nasiriyah as saying that fighting between the Jaysh al-Mahdi Shi‘i sectarian militia and rival Shi‘i sectarians in the puppet police force began on Sunday night when the puppet police sectarians attacked the office of Muqtada as-Sadr − the sectarian cleric who heads the Jaysh al-Mahdi − in an apparent response to an attack on the puppet police chief in the city that had left him wounded.
At the time of reporting an uneasy calm prevailed in the city, though gun battles raged during the night of Monday-Tuesday. Jaysh al-Mahdi gunmen were deployed throughout the city and the Shi‘i sectarians in the puppet regime military and police were also on high alert. Puppet regime troops were searching for snipers atop tall buildings on al-Hububi Street following nighttime fighting that saw at least 10 commercial stores go up in flames that no fire department could get near enough to extinguish.
An-Nasiriyah, an oil-rich city in the south of Iraq, had been relatively peaceful with little Resistance activity against the US occupation. Following the British announcement of their impending withdrawal from southern Iraq, battles erupted as rival Shi‘i sectarian began to fight each other for local dominance following the British departure.
On Tuesday, the Jaysh al-Mahdi sectarians were in deployed in the neighborhoods of Aridu, ash-Sharqiyah, as-Salihiyah, and al-‘Askari in the west and north of an-Nasiriyah. Electricity was out in many parts of the city due to the battle damage and telephone land lines and many cellular services had also been knocked out of action.
A high official in the Shi‘i sectarian puppet Iraqi army − who asked not to be identified − disclosed that occupation troops from the US satellite countries of Australia and Romania had been put on alert to intervene if the fighting resumes between the rival Shi‘i groupings in an-Nasiriyah − both of which support the occupation.
Al-Basrah Province.
Al-Basrah.
US- backed puppet regime rewards al-Basrah puppet police chief for sectarian rampage by promoting him to role in central administration in Baghdad.
In a dispatch posted at 10:39am Baghdad time Tuesday morning, the Association of Muslim Scholars of Iraq (AMSI) reported that puppet regime officials declared on Monday that the puppet police chief in the southern city of al-Basrah had been promoted to the post of General Director of the “Ministry of the Interior” in Baghdad. The move appeared to be a reward for the puppet official’s role in the sectarian purge of Sunnis from Iraq’s southern most city as it came just days after the sectarian Shi‘i sectarian militias in al-Basrah, together with the puppet police and regime troops, rampaged through Sunni mosques in the city destroying many and terrorizing Sunni residents out of the city.
The AMSI reported that the puppet police chief, Muhammad Hammadi, had been at odds with the puppet governor of al-Basrah, a member of the rival Shi‘i sectarian Fadilah Party which had publicly broken with the main Shi‘i coalition to which the Badr Brigades, the Jaysh al-Mahdi, and the Da‘wah party of puppet “Prime Minister” Nuri al-Maliki belong. The Fadilah Party and the main Shi‘i sectarian coalition led by the Jaysh al-Mahdi under cleric Muqtada as-Sadr have been battling each other for control of the southern region after Britain announced its intention to withdraw earlier this year.
