Kenny_Logins Posted January 23, 2020 Report Share Posted January 23, 2020 6 hours ago, GregHi said: Tonight my friend told me a little about his experience in Najaf in 2003-2004 when he was an “S2” translator/interrogator (I hope I’m saying that correctly.. maybe an Iraqi veteran can correct me if I’m wrong). Anyway,, His dislike for Sadr is obvious he said we (the US), should have killed him back then. He said the Marines and Army were closing in on Sadr in 2003-2004 in Najaf and just about to take him out, as he was hiding in a shrine in the old part of Najaf. Sistani had been away in another Country recovering from an illness and returned to Najaf and convinced the US forces not to go into the holy shrine and pull back due to the bad image of killing him in a holy place.. Then Sadr left and went to Iran. so anyway I thought that was interesting.. I like hearing about his first account experiences. I could never understand why the US didn't take out Sadr. His Mahdi Army killed a lot of our guys, which we still owe him for. It's never too late. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GregHi Posted January 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2020 So tonight he told me some info from solemania. He said over the weekend during the regular protests that Sadr “security” abruptly left the area. He said once they were gone black SUVs rolled in and started kicking out the protestors and the shooting them. But they are resilient.. Even though the group burned down their Make shift camps, the protestors returned with brinks and mortar to rebuild their camp.. kind of reminds me of the 3 little pigs story.. lol 11 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WheresmyRV? Posted January 28, 2020 Report Share Posted January 28, 2020 Greghi thank you so much for your friends info, I appreciate your posts very much!

Popular Post GregHi Posted January 30, 2020 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted January 30, 2020 Thank you all for the nice comments regarding my friends intel.. I appreciate them.. Just want to make sure that people know, my Shia friend is from Najaf, but has lived here in the US for a few years now. He served as a lower level translator over there. So when we talk about current events, he tells me about his past experience there and his friends and family’s current experiences there. He gets his info from his friends on Facebook and talks to his family over the phone or FaceTime there. I don’t want anyone to think he himself is actually in Iraq now, but of course he is close to being actual boots on the ground there through his friends and family.. 16 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GregHi Posted February 1, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 I sent a text to my friend this morning to see if he could confirm Allawi is the new PM and he just replied. He said “Yes, it’s true!” He said, and remember this is just his opinion and bleak outlook on things.. “like I said before, it won’t change anything”.. meaning the GOI will remain corrupt.. I then asked him if the protestors were upset from the news? And his reply was “Yes they are”.. His responses are really what we expected but just kind of confirmed how the people feel about the whole situation.. 2 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
