U.S. ASSASSINATION TEAMS IN IRAQ?

By cosmici

the US has been exercising the Salvador option [*] in Iraq for some time, but seldom have we had reports of them actually having to get their special forces hands dirty themselves. These are typical "rogue warriors" - bearded, non-uniformed. ASIA TIMES:

Early in the morning on Sunday, June 18, US military helicopters landed near the home of Sinan Abdul-Ilah al-Mashadani in the al-Jughaifi district of Fallujah.

Within two minutes the doors of his home were blasted open and "a strange looking group of people" stormed inside, according to Said Walid Ahmed, a 40-year-old teacher who lives in the neighborhood.

"This force is not totally unknown to us here in Fallujah," Ahmed, who witnessed the incident from a nearby house told Inter Press Service (IPS). "They are a special force of Americans that assassinates more people than it arrests."

Ahmed described the force from the helicopters as "big men with long hair and beards, some wearing earrings, and others with little black caps on the top of their heads at the back".

Sinan Abdul-Ilah al-Mashadani, who was a student at al-Mustansiriya University and the sole supporter of his mother and younger brother and sister, was killed in the raid, apparently by a special operations team supported by the US military, according to witnesses... [*]

The Salvador option is working though - now the US is being asked to stay in Iraq by the Sunnis who havecome to fear the Shi'ite militias the strategy has empowered [*].
