I cannot depend much on my English listening comprehension, but it seems to me as if the CBS reporter from northern Iraq indicated or suggested in its first report on the issue that the Badr Brigade was created after the removal of Saddam. If that understanding is true then she probably should have done a better research. Badr Brigade is probably between thirty to thirty five years old. It was created during the Iraq Iran war as a militia for Iraq related purposes. It belongs to the Iraqi opposition in Iran Mohammad Baqir Al-Hakim how was assassinated after returning back to Iraq shortly after the removal of Saddam from power. With the deportation Saddam did at the beginning of the war with Iran to any one his system classify as Iranian or from Iranian descents (I thought I wouldn't see something like that craziness happen in a democracy until I came here and knew about what the identity complex caused to happen to the people seen as Japanese during second world war and how the Supreme Court allowed itself to issue an opinion that makes so little sense, if any, regarding that), there was probably no shortage of supply of Iraqis for that brigade.
