Iraqi resistance biography .ms Iraqi civilians' reaction to the statement were reported to vary widely, from being "hailed as the manifesto for a legitimate resistance movement" to being dismissed "as mere bravado". Among the reasons the resistance gives for the sabotage is to prevent an American seizure of Iraqi oil, which some opponents of the occupation believe was one of the main reasons for the invasion. Not all resistance to the occupation and interim government is violent: there are various Iraqi groups and political parties advocating peaceful non-violent resistance. iraqi-resistance.biography.ms

Iraqi Insurgency Almost a year on, with kidnappings and beheadings by Islamic militants, large cities still not under the control of coalition forces months away from planned elections, and with security problems requiring the diversion of funds from reconstruction projects, assumptions were being reconsidered and estimates revised. Attacks against foreign nationals are intended to intimidate non-government organizations and contractors and inhibit reconstruction and economic recovery. The Former Regime Loyalists, or FRL’s, threaten the safety of Iraqis and prolong the Coalition presence. www.globalsecurity.org /military/ops/iraq_insurgency.htm

USATODAY.com - Prewar intelligence predicted Iraqi insurgency Two reports by the National Intelligence Council, a group of senior analysts that pools assessments from across the nation's intelligence community, warned Bush in January 2003, two months before the invasion, that the conflict could spark factional violence and an anti-U.S. insurgency, the official said. Even after it became clear that Iraqi insurgents were capable of sustained conflict, administration officials downplayed the seriousness of the situation. Iraqis, they said, would be grateful to be rid of Saddam. www.usatoday.com /news/washington/2004-10-24-insurgence-intel_x.htm

Alexander's Gas & Oil Connections - Saboteurs hit Iraqi oil and water supply A new group of resistance fighters, the Iraqi National Islamic Resistance Movement, said that they would battle the occupying troops even if the US-led coalition helps Iraq recover from war.

Under U.S.-British occupation: LIFE IS HELL FOR IRAQIS And [the Iraqi National Islamic Resistance Group’s] varied and frequent attacks have prevented the occupiers from planting themselves on Iraqi soil. The Pentagon brass face a choice of admitting either that U.S. forces target journalists or that the Iraqi resistance and a hostile Iraqi population have made the troops panicky and trigger-happy. Iraqis are the main victims of the U.S./British occupation. www.iacenter.org /iraq-life-hell.htm

Indymedia UK - An Inventory of Iraqi Resistance Groups The resistance considers those who are on the side of the occupation to be as spies and traitors who do not deserve to remain on Iraqi territory, and hence they should be liquidated. Its declared aim is to liberate Iraqi territory from foreign military and political occupation and to establish a liberated and independent Iraqi state on Islamic bases.

ISN Security Watch - The Iraqi resistance and information warfare The men, identifying themselves as part of the hitherto unknown Iraqi National Islamic Resistance Movement, pledged to escalate their efforts to evict US forces from Iraq. That was the case this weekend when, just as al-Jazeera broadcast the message of the Iraqi National Islamic Resistance Movement, another regional satellite TV, Abu Dhabi-based Al-Arabiyah, aired an audiotape by a man praising Osama bin Laden. "The Iraqi resistance, as is well-known, has started to make substantial progress on the domestic front, putting the enemy on the defensive rather than offensive, and its varied and frequent attacks have prevented the occupiers from planting themselves on Iraqi soil, thank God," they said. www.isn.ethz.ch /news/sw/details_print.cfm?id=7264

Among those arrested was the suspected leader of the National Islamic Resistance/1920 Revolution Brigade terror group, the Defense Ministry said.

Jihad Unspun - An Insiders Look At The Iraqi Resistance Iraqi National Resistance Brigades: In a communiqué broadcast by Al-Jazeera on June 16, 2003, the Brigades qualified Saddam and his followers as "enemies who have contributed to the loss of the motherland". Iraqi Resistance: This group appeared on November 24, 2003 in a phone call to the Australian CARE agency in the Mansur District of Baghdad, claiming responsibility for an RPG attack on their office and warned the agency to leave Iraq or face more such attacks.

Fallujah: Operation al-Fajr (Dawn), Part 3 After the Iraqi Army took control of the main police station in Fallujah, they immediately raised the Iraqi national flag to symbolize the major role thousands of Iraqis had in the offensive.

Whiskey Bar: History Archives It was a culture riven by contradiction, angered by thwarted national ambitions, and struggling to reconcile an exalted sense of religious superiority with extreme military and political inferiority. The Iraqi constitutional "process" (now careening towards a bitter and divisive referendum) has already inspired one of the silliest historical analogies I think I've ever heard, at least since Ronald Reagan shuffled off the stage. Like our own nation's founders over two centuries ago, the Iraqis are grappling with difficult issues, such as the role of the federal government. billmon.org /archives/cat_history.html

The Daily Star Web Edition Vol. 4 Num 50 Qatar-based al-Jazeera television also showed a statement from another Iraqi group -- the "Iraqi National Islamic Resistance: 1920 Revolution Brigades," in reference to Iraq's history fighting British colonial rule -- warning against further foreign intervention. A group claiming to be an Iraqi branch of Osama bin Laden's al-Qaeda network claimed responsibility for attacks on US soldiers in an audio tape broadcast on al-Arabiya on Sunday but its rhetoric sounded more typical of Saddam supporters than Islamic militants. Two previously unknown Iraqi groups on Tuesday warned countries against sending troops to Iraq, where US troops are facing daily attacks, Arab television channels said on Tuesday. www.thedailystar.net /2003/07/16/d30716130173.htm

HoustonChronicle.com - Fisherman gives insight into Iraqi resistance He said one such group, the Iraqi National Islamic Resistance Movement, would soon release a videotape. Also, his authenticity was vouched for by an Iraqi journalist with strong contacts in the resistance who served as go-between in setting up the interview with The Associated Press. But such stories are widely believed by Iraqis, and add to the aura of the resistance. www.chron.com /cs/CDA/ssistory.mpl/special/iraq/2069352

POLITICAL CARTOONS...Rebuilding Iraq: Anxiety Rises on the Homefont about the Quagmire.

Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization (MEK) Formed in the 1960s, the organization was expelled from Iran after the Islamic Revolution in 1979, and its primary support came from the former Iraqi regime of Saddam Hussein starting in the late 1980s. In 1981, the MEK detonated bombs in the head office of the Islamic Republic Party and the Premier’s office, killing some 70 high-ranking Iranian officials, including Chief Justice Ayatollah Mohammad Beheshti, President Mohammad-Ali Rajaei, and Premier Mohammad-Javad Bahonar. In 2000 and 2001, the MEK was involved regularly in mortar attacks and hit-and-run raids on Iranian military and law enforcement units and Government buildings near the Iran-Iraq border, although MEK terrorism in Iran declined toward the end of 2001. library.nps.navy.mil /home/tgp/mek.htm   (603 words)

Centre for Research on Globalisation (CRG) The party responsible for the killing of Iraqi Shi'i cleric and Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq Chairman Muhammad al-Baqir al-Hakim was the topic of discussion of Al-Jazeera TV's "Open dialogue" programme on 30 August. Asked about the political future of Iraq and whether resistance or peaceful activity will prevail, Muthanna al-Dari says: "The biggest loser of the assassination of Muhammad Baqir al-Hakim, as Belqaziz said, is the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution. Asked about the death of Al-Hakim, Belqaziz attributes it to "the deterioration of Iraq's security under the US occupation of Iraq" and to "the colonialist US-British invasion of Iraq, which opened the door for all attempts to undermine national stability and the Iraqi social fabric." globalresearch.ca /articles/ALJ309A.html   (2363 words)

The U.S. Occupation and Resistance in Iraq Representatives of the Iraqi Islamic Party, whose head participated in the Iraqi Governing Council and who is also a member of the interim national assembly, participated in the MSA meeting, and joined in condemning the siege. Ba'athist Arab nationalists and the Iraqi Communist Party were the strongest elements of the country under the nationalist-military rule of Qasam; Ba'athism proved more powerful in the coming decades. Not surprisingly, Iraqis are supportive of this measured opposition to the occupation; the Coalition Provisional Authority itself conducted a poll in June 2004 that found that the vast majority of Iraqis viewed Sadr more favorably after the uprising than before. www.wpunj.edu /~newpol/issue38/perusek38.htm   (2363 words)
