Leader of – Soldiers of Heaven- reported dead a year ago now is alive

I don’t think many people noticed this report on Alquds newspaper yesterday, but it shows the credibility of the Iraqi government and army sources, and how much can we trust what they say.

The report starts with the following:

Iraqi army troops raided houses and mosques in Basra and other Iraqi provinces arrested 27 members of a group called “Ansar Almahdi” which is part of “Soldiers of Heaven“, the report is confirmed today by Karbal’s mayor.

Until now there is nothing wrong with the report, but her comes the weird part:

The group is led by Ahmad Hasan Al yamani who was at his home at the time when these arrests happened.

About a year ago in the so called “Soldiers of heaven” incident, the Iraqi government announced that Al yamani was killed, see the New York Times report, BBC link also.

Iraqi officials said Monday that they had killed the leader of the militia…..identifying him as a man who went by the name Ahmed Hassan al-Yamani, but whose real name was Diyah Abdul Zahraa Khadom.

Another link from the New York times:

I’m 100 percent sure that the group’s deputy— Diyah Abdul Zahraa Khadom, also known as Ahmed Hassan al-Yamani — “was a security officer from the old regime

They even published an images of his dead corpse, see Al-Hayat report + image.

Credibility?

    As long as he was an armed terrorist, a sympathiser and slave of the wahabaathys, he can go to hell.

    You can make smart remarks about credibility etc. At the end of the day, another professional rapist from the unholy wahaby-baathy alliance has been flushed down the toilet. May he rot for ever with the body of his master Saddam.

    Good news for Iraq, and for humanity.
