An unknown left-wing group calling itself the Iraqi Armed Revolutionary Resistance distributed leaflets in the Mid-Euphrates area around Najaf, Hilla and Karbala calling for “resistance against American, British and Zionist occupiers in order to liberate Iraq and form a free socialist, democratic alternative,” according to the Al-Badeel Al-Iraqi website. The group, which described itself as a “movement of Iraqi Communists and Marxists experienced in armed struggle, leftist Iraqi nationalists, and their supporters,” claimed responsibility for an attack against U.S. troops at the Khan Al-Nus area between Najaf and Karbla on Sunday.link (http://www.iraqslogger.com/index.php/post/2790/Iraqi_Marxist_Insurgent_Group_Declared)

They seem to have high ambitions and have identified their enemies as:
the “puppet government, the so-called Council of Representatives, terrorist Salafis, militias, the Interior Ministry, Iraqi traitors who came on American tanks, the American and British mercenaries, contractors, and their servants from the South Lebanese Army.”

In other words, just about everyone else...

It's too bad they couldn't be Islamic fundamentalist commies. Then the neocons wouldn't have to bother anymore with rewriting their old tirades about falling dominoes of monolithic communism into tirades about falling dominoes of monolithic Islamofascism. The time savings could make the killing and funneling of our tax money to war profiteers so much more efficient.
