"Young democracy:"

Iraqi and American troops arrested the second-highest official in the Iraqi Health Ministry today, accusing him of funneling millions of dollars to rogue Shiite militants who kidnapped and killed Iraqi civilians.

Iraqi officials accused Deputy Health Minister Hakim al-Zamili of using government ambulances to ferry weapons and militants across Sadr City, hiding them from American raids.

The United States military said in a statement that the arrested official was suspected of using his position to run a rogue unit of the Mahdi Army, the Shiite militia loyal to the renegade cleric Moktada al-Sadr, that killed political opponents and that he paid militants with American money intended to revive for Iraq’s decaying medical system.

The military said the official was accused of flooding the agency’s payroll with militants and using health ministry “facilities and services for sectarian kidnapping and murder.”


He probably killed more than a few American soldiers, too...with money provided by the Bush administration. Way to go, team.

Oh, and I see that the followup to "Surge," Operation-We've-Got-to-Evacuate-The-Green-Zone-Right-Fucking-NOW, Damnit! is officially in the planning stage. They just need to find a scapegoat.

I hear they're in consultation with anti-Semite/homophobe Bill Donohue on how to do that...
