That Alleged Baathist Coup
As often in Iraq, the truth is hard to discover. The Maliki government is denying reports of a coup and we discover the following:
Initial accounts provided by Iraqi security officials said
that Gen. Ahmed Abu Raqeef, the director of internal affairs for the
Ministry of the Interior, was among those arrested. But that account
was wrong; Gen. Raqeef is, in fact, part of a committee overseeing the
investigation of government officials’ possible links to the Baath
Party.
Juan Cole has a theory.
