bismi-lLahi-rRahmani-rRahiem In the Name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful === News Update === Baghdad. The Resistance set off five bombs by Iraqi puppet forces and pro-Iranian Jaysh al-Mahdi militiamen in Baghdad on Friday. Three mortar rounds struck the Shii Buratha Mosque in Baghdad on Friday, a facility reportedly used as a torture and execution center by Shii sectarian militias. The Imam of he mosque is the Iranian citizen Jalal as-Saghir, a well known leader of Shii sectarian militias. There were reports of casualties as a result of Fridays mortar attack on the mosque, but no details were available at the time the correspondent submitted his report. The Resistance also fired a mortar shell at a headquarters of the puppet Iraqi Interior Ministry Shock Troops (Maghawir) in the ash-Shurtah al-Khamisah district of Baghdad at 4pm local time Friday afternoon. The bodies of 24 Sunnis who had been abducted by Shii sectarian death squads were found in Baghdad on Friday. Defections from pro-Iranian Jaysh al-Mahdi militia reportedly on the increase as pressure from Iraqi Resistance grows. In a dispatch posted at 2:34pm Makkah time Friday afternoon, Mafkarat al-Islam reported that an informed source in a Shii sectarian party operating in the Madinat Saddam section of Baghdad a district nicknamed Madinat as-Sadr since the US occupation said that dozens of members of the pro-Iranian Jaysh al-Mahdi militia had resigned from the militia and fled the country to Iran, Lebanon, or Syria following hard-hitting attacks on the group by Iraqi Resistance fighters. The Madinat as-Sadr correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported from Baghdad that a source in the Shi sectarian al-Fadilah Party who asked not to be identified said that an Iraqi Resistance organization had acquired a roster containing the names and addresses of a large number of Jaysh al-Mahdi militia members. For the past two weeks, the Resistance had been carrying out an extensive program of liquidating those Jaysh al-Mahdi gunmen. The source said that since the explosions in the city of Samarra an apparent reference to the mysterious bombing of the Imam al-Hadi mosque on 22 February 2006, which signaled a massive offensive of pro-Iranian Shii sectarian forces in Iraq more than 25,000 Shii sectarians had been killed throughout the country. The campaign against the pro-Iranian sectarians was particularly intense in Baghdad, Diyala Province, the Samarra area in Salah ad-Din Province, and in other regions. The source noted that the Resistance attacks had also crippled a large number of Jaysh al-Mahdi gunmen, placing an increasingly heavy burden on sectarian cleric Muqtada as-Sadr, to whom the disabled sectarian fighters have persistently appealed to continue paying their monthly wages and provide compensation. Sources indicated that there have been increasing instances of infighting within the ranks of the Jaysh al-Mahdi, in particular over control of the money derived from the khums the Shii tithe funds and loot seized in sectarian raids and ethnic cleansing campaigns. The sources said that such battles had left more than 20 Jaysh al-Mahdi gunmen dead in Baghdad and an-Najaf alone. The sources said that the movement of Muqtada as-Sadr and its armed wing the Jaysh al-Mahdi is increasingly gripped by the fear that the rival Shii sectarian gang, the Badr Brigades headed by Abd al-Aziz al-Hakim, will overcome the Jaysh al-Mahdi, particularly after al-Hakims recent visits to US President George W. Bush and his appeals for American help in dissolving the militias by which al-Hakim obviously meant the Jaysh al-Mahdi, not his own Badr Brigade. The Badr Brigade, a force of nearly 30,000 men, which is the armed wing of the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq (SCIRI) was trained in Iran for decades prior to joining the US military in their invasion of Iraq in 2003. After the American occupation, the Badr Brigades became the backbone of the puppet regimes security forces and puppet army. source: http://www.albasrah.net/pages/mod.php?mod=art&lapage=../en_articles_2006/1206/iraqiresistancereport_221206.htm === -muslim voice- ______________________________________ BECAUSE YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
