Up to 500 al-Qaeda members have escaped from Iraqs Abu Ghraib prison, most of whom were senior members and awaiting execution.. Among those said to have been freed were convicted senior terrorists..

They were freed when gunmen and suicide bombers blasted their way into the prison.

There was also another simultaneous prison raid just 20 miles north of Baghdad, An MP on the security and defence committee, Shwan Taha, said that between 500 and 1,000 inmates escaped from the two prisons.

The raid, a demonstration of al-Qaeda's resurgent power in Iraq, involved a combination of gunmen and suicide bombers who blasted their way into the high-security compound in the Iraqi capital's western suburbs. Among those said to have been freed were convicted senior terrorists awaiting execution

So when another false flag arises here in the states, they can now place the blame on somebody else.

Seems kind of fishy to me.

The rt link has a little more info

rt.com...

Suicide bombers drove cars with explosives into the gates of the prison on the outskirts of Baghdad on Sunday night, while gunmen attacked guards with mortar fire as well as rocket propelled grenades.

Other militants held the main road, fighting off security reinforcements sent from Baghdad, as several insurgents wearing suicide vests entered Abu Ghraib on foot to help free the inmates.

Ten policemen and four militants were killed in the fighting, which continued until early Monday, when military helicopters arrived to help regain control.

Sunni Muslims, who include the royal families of the Persian Gulf oil sheikdoms, have banded behind the rebels (Sunnis are the majority in Syria). The royal family of Saudi Arabia and Qatar have been funneling arms and cash to rebels, and Sunni Muslims who dominate al-Qaida have dispatched fighters to the front.

Al Anbar


Just about all the inhabitants of the province are Sunni Muslims and mostly from the Dulaim tribe.


So if they got to the Al Anbar province then possibly they could be granted safe passage to Syria to fight against Assad seeing how Al Qaeda is financed by the US GOVT.

The word resurgence is deceitful, at one side we get that al-Qaeda is a US (CIA) creation and at the other that there was no al-Qaeda presence in Iraq before the fake WMD war. So I guess that there was a need for "Freedom fighters" in Syria as Assad seems to be regaining control...

Sounds like releasing targets again into the wild for the next turkey shoot? Hmmm
