Ali Mussa Daqduq, who U.S. officials say played an integral role in a January attack in Karbala that killed five Americans, allegedly was helping to train Shiite militias fighting U.S.-led coalition forces, the officials said.
And who exactly was he?
Daqduq was captured in a raid aimed at seizing another Shiite militant leader suspected of involvement in the January 20 Karbala attack, said Brig. Gen. Kevin Bergner. Intelligence officials said that Daqduq and the Iraqi militia commanders with whom he worked have admitted working with Iran’s Quds Force.
The Iranian special operations force “is using Lebanese Hezbollah essentially as a proxy, as a surrogate, in Iraq,” Bergner said. He added that the military is learning about the “specific motivations behind those operations.”
Thus far Iran seems to have been getting away with it- but I honestly don't think that will continue for much longer. Iran is responsible for the deaths of those five American soldiers.
