Defense Adviser: There are no resistance factions in Iraq, only Internet names

Check out the level of sad­ness in the country:

Defense Adviser Major Gen­eral Mohammed Al-Askri, in an inter­view with Al Arbiya played down the Iraqi resistance’s threat say­ing that most of the resis­tance oper­a­tions you see on the Inter­net are fake oper­a­tions made by paid-people using mod­ern video-editing techniques.

He give an exam­ple say­ing a video of a tank explod­ing is released by many resis­tance groups each group show­ing it from dif­fer­ent angle.

Added:

These fac­tions change their names fre­quently and try to con­tact the Amer­i­cans claim­ing their influ­ence in Iraq ask­ing for money.

The dan­ger we are fac­ing is Al Qaeda, the Bathists and the rest are Inter­net names.

In the same report Al Ara­biya quotes for­mer min­is­ter – from the Sadr move­ment – he added that the only real resis­tance fac­tion is Asseb Al Iraq which is a Shi­ite group first appeared in Basra and they attack the Amer­i­cans only not the Iraqi police or army.
