Subject: [islam-arabia] How Baghdad gave up? Date: Thu, 10 Apr 2003 15:29:18 +0300 Dear All, I published today, in my paper Al-Madina, the story behind the story, explaining how, suddenly, the American forces entered in peace, and the Iraqi forces, regime and leadership, disappeared in peace. Here is a summary of my story: Saddam and company are in Moscow. Condi Rice Closed a deal in Moscow for him, his family and the top regime bosses to leave with the Russian Ambassador to Moscow. That is why the injured Ambassador returned to Baghdad soon after he left to Damascus. The Iraqi Defense Minister, General Sultan Hashem, who together with four other generals including Mustafa Kamal, the dictator's cousin and son-in-law discussed the deal with the former Iraqi Chief of Staff, Nizar Al-Khazraji, in Qatar and the CIA. They agreed that as soon as Saddam and company leave, General Sultan will disband troops, empty military, security and governmental offices of personnel and important documents, and give the American troops the green line to enter. The agreement included details as when and how to enter, as well as the safest routs and districts to take. CIA officers and informers on the ground, as well as satellite, predators and similar spy planes, monitored the plan implementation. General Al-Khazraji, who was on top of these contacts, will take over the command and control of the remaining Iraqi military and security forces. Most of the troops, especially the Republican Guards, melted among the civilians, but the agreement included immunity for them. The top Iraqi officials have already sent their families to Damascus, most followed suit with Russia as the guarantor of their safety. Many will continue to other destinations, including Russia, Switzerland and France, with an American promise no to pursue them. Billions of dollars were transferred abroad in recent months, on top of what is already deposited in secret and personal accounts in foreign banks, especially Swiss and offshore banks. However, most of the recent transfer went to Russian banks. The bombing of the building allegedly visited by Saddam was a cover to say later that all are "probably" dead. The American condition was for them to be "officially dead". Saddam and his group liked the idea because it saves faces, and it ends their lives as martyrs. This way, the Americans do not have to hunt them and demand trial, and they don't have to worry about being hunted the rest of their lives. The irony here is: America brought Saddam and his Baath regime to power against Abdul Kareem Qasim regime that was in its way to take the Moscow highway as an ally. When Saddam took the same way later, as American-supported Nasser did in Egypt, America gave him a one-way ticket this time ... to Moscow! What an irony. Salam, Khaled [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
