Iraqi writer Sabah Nahi revealed, on Tuesday, what he described as the few minutes that prevented the killing of former regime leader Saddam Hussein with an American missile during the war launched by Washington to overthrow him. However, the attempt turned into a “bloody massacre” that claimed the lives of dozens of civilians.[/size]
[size=45]Nahi wrote to the “Independent Arabia” website, saying, “The leaders of the former regime fled Baghdad at the outbreak of the war, and the president kept going around (as I saw him by chance in the Mansour neighborhood) at that lonely dawn, looking for a smuggler disguised in a white (Peugeot) car and another like it, racing to get him into the A restaurant garage on 14 Ramadan Street in Mansour, and that was the moment he disappeared.[/size]

[size=45]Nahi says, “After Saddam Hussein escaped from the (Al-Sa’a) restaurant on 14th Ramadan Street, which was bombed a few minutes after his exit - Saddam Hussein - and the mud was scattered in the elegant Mansour Al-Baghdadi neighborhood by that missile that dug deep into the ground, and killed the families who were in it and lived around it. Parts of its remains were scattered on the roads, and perhaps some were examining the body parts of the dead to see if Saddam was among them.[/size]
[size=45]Nahi explains, "The story of Saddam's sudden exit from the (House of the Clock) sparked many stories and stories that could cover volumes. How did Saddam know that he was being targeted by a missile, with a few minutes between him and the missile?"[/size]
[size=45]And he adds, “My source, whom I met recently, and he is from the first line in the intelligence apparatus, and he was in the advanced security department and its place of trust, says: When I was holding an important sector to secure the capital in the center of Baghdad, and he received me by secret mail and with the personal signature of the president, he ordered the appointment of a new director of the intelligence apparatus. He is Khaled Sultan al-Tikriti, one of the president’s escorts, and one of the officials in the apparatus, and the book includes a paragraph urging the arrest of the traitor, the current director of the apparatus, and killing him if necessary in any place you find him.”[/size]
[size=45]And he continues, "This was the first shake-up of power and rule in my view, in a regime that used to hold the responsibility of the intelligence apparatus only to those who had confidence in power and President Saddam."[/size]
[size=45]He added, “During the audit that I conducted at the time, after the incident, the director of the agency, Taher Al-Habush, failed to attend a small meeting that he was obliged to attend with President Saddam in an adjacent room in the (Al-Sa’a) restaurant in Al-Mansour neighborhood, and after asking him about his non-attendance, President Saddam asked to leave the place immediately. After that, the center was bombed by a plane that was hovering around the place, and fired a missile with enormous destructive power, targeting the life of the president and those with him in that place.”[/size]
[size=45]The senior security official did not rule out, according to Nahi, that the director of the agency had “handed over and cooperated with the American forces in return for guaranteeing his life and personal security.” He was preoccupied with asking the officers of the apparatus about the outbreak of war and the occurrence of a strike or not, and he was trying to know the possibility of a war breaking out, as one of the old officials in the apparatus told me, who was surprised by his manager’s questions about war and the possibility of its occurrence.[/size]
[size=45]And the security official, who has irrefutable documents, confirms that his fugitive boss “took $50 million to secure his life, escape and hide, and to arrange what is necessary to deny the accusation that the president himself has established against him in a letter circulated to the security services,” he said.[/size]

[size=45]According to Nahi, “There are continuous stories that accompanied the escape of security leaders before the political and partisan on the eve of the 2003 war and after it, opening files that have not yet been completed. It will be fertile material for historical research of modern Iraq, but the escape of Izzat al-Douri, the vice president, and Abdul Baqi al-Saadoun, Muhammad Yunus al-Ahmad and Abu Zaki al-Aboudi, And others from the group of 55 that the US military put on playing cards, opens pages of search for the ability to disguise and work among circles that talk about their dealings and their dead hearts, and they continue to reject the occupation during its military presence for eight years (2003-2011), and work in a new, hostile environment.[/size]
[size=45]Nahi believes that they are “stories that have not yet been announced, except in the case of Abdul-Baqi al-Saadoun, a member of the Qatari leadership, and the unveiling of the secrets of the disappearance of Izzat al-Douri, who took over the leadership of the Baath Party after Saddam Hussein’s trial and execution.”[/size]
[size=45]Nahi concludes by saying, "It seems that the Iraqi leadership that managed the files of previous wars and the siege that exhausted them, and the president's reliance on the family and not the professional, trained, experienced leaders who graduated in administrations, which is a long history that lasted 35 years of the life of the Baath in Iraq and put it on the shelf, has reached Convinced that she is not responsible for the political and security decision in the country, because the culture that prevailed from lessons with their colleagues who were crushed by the power machine, is that they are decision-takers and not its makers, and the advice they gave her did not work, as an officer in Public Security with the rank of major general, Moayad al-Wandawi, confirmed to me Who warned them of the consequences of continuing to ignore the competencies in the party and government authority, which fell victim to wrong choices.[/size]
