Iraqi
troops have ceded control of four towns in the last two days.
On
Saturday, the town of Qaim was captured by insurgents.

Staff
in Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki’s office are preparing to hold a press
conference later Sunday to comment on the confused retreat of the country’s
army.
One
of the captured towns, Rutba, with a population of about 55,000, is situated in
a strategic location about 150 kilometers east of the Jordanian border, with
the Amman-Baghdad road and the Mosul–Haifa oil pipeline passing nearby.

Sumber
tanpa nama memberitahu AP bahawa tentera bercadang untuk melawan untuk menawan
semula Rutba dan mengancam untuk memulakan serangan. Ini mendorong penduduk di
bandar ini, di antara mereka mungkin ada sehingga 20,000 pelarian dari Fallujah
dan Ramadi, untuk berunding dengan militan menyerang untuk meninggalkan bandar
itu secara aman.

bandar-bandar lain ditawan, Rawah dan Ana, berdiri di tebing Sungai Euphrates.
Militan muncul mungkin untuk menuju ke bandar Haditha, di mana empangan penting
ialah kedudukan. Tentera Iraq telah dilaporkan dihantar 2,000 tentera tambahan
untuk melindungi empangan ini, tetapi sama ada tentera akan mampu memenuhi
tugas untuk itu kita lihat.
Militan
Sunni mengawal kawasan yg luas bukan sahaja Iraq tetapi Syria juga. Kawalan
ke atas lintasan sempadan, seperti bandar Qaim, membolehkan pemberontak dengan
mudah mengangkut peluru dan bekalan di antara kedua-dua negara.
Dalam
pada itu, beribu-ribu militia Syiah pro-kerajaan berarak ‘marched’ melalui Baghdad, Kirkuk dan bandar-bandar lain
di Iraq menunjukkan kekuatan.
Anonymous
sources told AP that the army intends to fight back to recapture Rutba and
threatened to start shelling. This prompted the town’s residents, among whom
there could be up to 20,000 refugees from Fallujah and Ramadi, to negotiate
with the invading militants to leave the city peacefully.
Two
other captured cities, Rawah and Anah, stand on the banks of the Euphrates
River. The militants appear likely to head for the city of Haditha, where an
important dam is positioned. The Iraqi military has reportedly dispatched 2,000
additional troops to protect this dam, but whether the army will be capable of
fulfilling the task remains to be seen.
The
Sunni militants control vast areas not only of Iraq but of Syria as well.
Control over border crossings, such as the city of Qaim, allows the insurgents
to easily transport ammunition and supplies between the two countries.
In
the meantime, thousands of pro-government Shiite militiamen marched
through Baghdad, Kirkuk and other Iraqi cities in a show of force.

Perarakan
itu menunjukkan bahawa militia Syiah bersenjata bukan sahaja dengan pistol,
tetapi dengan senjata berat juga, seperti berganda pelancar roket, meriam dan
berat mesin senjata api.
Para
pemberontak Sunni, yg kebanyakannya tlh berjuang menentang kerajaan Syria
Presiden Bashar Assad untuk 3 tahun yang lalu, juga dengan baik bersenjata.
Dalam keadaan semasa konflik mazhab antara Syiah dan Sunni di Iraq, perang
saudara di negara ini mungkin sangat berdarah dan kejam.
The
march demonstrated that the Shiite militia is armed not only with handguns, but
with heavy weaponry as well, such as multiple rocket launchers, artillery and
heavy machine-guns.
The
Sunni insurgents, many of whom have been fighting against the Syrian government
of President Bashar Assad for the last three years, are also very well armed.
In the current conditions of sectarian conflict between Shiites and Sunnis in
Iraq, a civil war in the country could be particularly bloody and ruthless.
