Sadam Death Squads?

SADDAM'S DEATH SQUAD EXPOSED

A top-secret squad of 30 Iraqi terrorists, all specially trained killing machines, are loose around the world and could strike anytime and anywhere, a former top spy of Saddam Hussein has revealed, as reported in the New York Post. Their deadly specialties include sabotage, urban warfare, hijacking and murder, according to Abu Zeinab al-Qurairy, a former brigadier general in
Iraq's Mukhabarat intelligence service.

The onetime Iraqi tells the February issue of Vanity Fair his "Dirty 30" were culled from a
secret, 1,200-strong commando force called al-Qare'a - "the Strikers." Known as Iraq's "elite of elite," the Strikers, whose existence wasn't known in the West until now, have been trained to a level far beyond the nation's ordinary special forces, al-Qurairy says. The 30 evil soldiers now
roaming the world are said to be much more deadly.

The feared unit was commissioned by Saddam's son Uday and presented as a "birthday
present" to his dad in April 2000.

Al-Qurairy said he gave the 30 new identities, complete with United Arab Emirates passports supplied by a corrupt UAE minister paid off by the Mukhabarat. That means they can travel anywhere without creating suspicion. In fact, Al-Qurairy believes the Twin Towers attacks have
a direct link to the terror team he trained.

He notes that hijack leader Mohamed Atta twice met a notorious Mukhabaret
special-operations expert in Prague, Czech Republic, and Ziad Jarrah, who piloted Flight 93, also had met with Mukhabaret men.

"When I saw the World Trade Center attack on television, I turned to a friend and said, ‘That's ours,'" he says.

The links are plausible, considering the intense training exercises al-Qurairy put his squad through. In one of most disturbing, he fitted the Dirty 30 in diving gear and had them blow up a specially-constructed mock-up of a U.S. Navy destroyer. The destruction of the fake ship, moored in central Iraq's Habbaniya Lake, was videotaped and then shown to Saddam as part of his birthday celebration.

Al-Qurairy, 41, says that, to this day, he as no idea where the Dirty 30 are or what they are planning in the way of murder and mayhem. His elite force was trained at one of Saddam's main terrorist training camps, Salman Park, 45 minutes south of Baghdad. There, he says, "trainees who fail are used as targets in live-ammunition exercises."

They're probably in the Virgin Islands, clipping coupons.

That's about par for Saddam. I read a story where he got nuclear scientists to return home by threatening their families, then forced them to make a nuke.

They were going too slowly, so he took one of the scientists and had him hung up by his thumbs, for several years. The remaining scientists worked a LOT faster, and they did succeed in building a fridge-sized nuke. Yes, it would blow up, but no, they had no way of delivering it to Israel, or even Kuwait.

Where did you *hear* this news? Have you ever considered going to the CIA with this information?

They were probably sold into sex slavery by the people that were supposed to be helping them because the mercenaries kept killing their chickens and eating them raw.
