Iraq May Give Amnesty to Insurgents
By JIM KRANE, Associated Press Writer
BAGHDAD, Iraq - Iraq (news - web sites)'s prime minister, less than a week after taking power, may offer amnesty to insurgents and could extend it to those who killed American troops in an apparent bid to lure Saddam Hussein (news - web sites) loyalists from their campaign of violence.
A spokesman for Iyad Allawi went as far as to suggest attacks on U.S. troops over the past year were legitimate acts of resistance — a sign of the new government's desire to distance itself from the 14-month U.S.-led occupation of Iraq. [This slap in Dubyuh's face with added insult to our war dead is troubling testimony to a war gone wrong.] RJ.
