WASHINGTON — U.S. intelligence agencies
have identified several guerrilla groups, including
one whose name calls for Saddam Hussein’s
return, that they now believe are behind much of
the anti-U.S. violence in Iraq.
The top general in the region, Gen. John
Abizaid, estimated Thursday that insurgent fight
ers in Iraq total no more than 5,000, and he said
the largest and most dangerous groups are Saddam
loyalists.
“I would say that this group of Baathists
(Saddam loyalists), by far, represents the greatest
threat to peace and stability,” the general said.
Abizaid, the chief of U.S. Central Command, did
not provide details, but said the insurgent forces
have considerable training and supplies, plus money
from stashes left over from Saddam’s rule and from
sources outside Iraq.
The most significant, The Return Party, is com
posed primarily of members of Saddam’s Baath
Party, the officials said. Another, Muhammed’s
Army, appears to be run by former chiefs of
Saddam’s security services.
Other threats include Sunni Islamic extremists,
some from outside the country, and Shiite extremists
who may be receiving support from others in Iran.
Much remains murky about these opposition
forces, the officials acknowledged. And most of
the major bombings and attacks against U.S. and
other Western targets remain unsolved.
But defense and other American officials famil
iar with Iraqi intelligence say they are making
some headway into characterizing the guerrillas.
The groups are using classic guerrilla tactics:
bombings, snipings and hit-and-run attacks, and
some are using suicide bombers, officials said.
While the groups have varying degrees of organiza
tion and capability, their emergence in the months
since Saddam was ousted suggests the U.S. could be
facing a sustained insurgency from several fronts.
Chief among the identified guerrilla groups are:
—The Return Party: Considered the most sig
nificant insurgent group in Iraq, although officials
could not put a figure to its size. It is composed
primarily of members of Saddam’s Baath Party
and maintains the party’s prewar structure, with
regional and local organizations.
—Muhammad’s Army: This group, also seek
ing to return Saddam to power, consists of at least
several hundred fonner members of Iraq’s intelli
gence and security services.

Researcher shocked by transport of vials
By Betsy Blaney
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LUBBOCK, Texas — A
plague researcher for the Army
testified Thursday that she was
surprised when she learned that
a Texas Tech University pro
fessor personally transported
samples of potentially deadly
bacteria from Africa.
Thomas Butler, 62, is on trial
on multiple felony counts stem
ming from his report of stolen
bacteria responsible for bubonic
plague, including charges of
illegally transporting the vials.
Patricia Worsham, who
works in the plague division at
the U.S. Army Medical
Research Institute of Infectious
Diseases at Fort Detrick in
Maryland, said she discussed
possibly obtaining samples from
Butler. But she said she had no
idea he had personally brought
them on a plane from Tanzania.
“I would have run scream
ing from the room,” said
Worsham, who said she had
exchanged e-mails with Butler
about the samples. “That is a
type of violation of the law that
I would not want to become
involved with, that my institute
would not want to become
involved with.”
Butler faces 69 felony
charges in connection with his
Jan. 14 report that 30 vials were
stolen from the university lab,
an incident that sparked a
bioterrorism scare in this West
Texas town. The renown
plague researcher later admit
ted to accidentally destroying
the vials.
Butler’s defense team has
portrayed him as a dedicated
researcher who was doing
plague research for the govern
ment — the Centers for
Disease Control and
Prevention, the U.S. Army and
the Food and Drug
Administration.
On cross examination,
defense attorney Floyd Holder
asked Worsham about an e-mail
that he said showed Butler want
ed advice on how to transport
plague samples to the institute.
He asked whether she advised
him or dodged his question.
“1 wouldn’t have intentional
ly dodged the question and 1
wouldn’t necessarily say this
was asking for advice,”
Worsham said.
Worsham said she trusted
Butler’s knowledge and experi
ence in safeguarding plague sam
ples being transported, In other
testimony Thursday, a CDC offi
cial said he spoke to Butler the
day the vials were reported miss
ing and characterized their con
versation as “odd.”
Kenneth Gage, a plague sur
veillance and control officer at
the CDC’s Fort Collins, Colo.,
office, said he spoke to Butler to
establish how dangerous the
vials were.
Butler had taken the samples
to the Colorado facility in June
2002 for diagnostic testing. In
their conversation, Gage testi
fied, Butler seemed more con
cerned about test results that
showed not all of the vials test
ed positive for plague than the
fact they were missing.
Within hours of the report
of missing vials, scores of fed
eral agents descended on the
city and a frantic search for the
vials ensued. It ended when
Butler gave FBI agents a writ
ten statement in which he
acknowledged a “misjudg-
ment” in not telling his super
visor that the vials had been
“accidentally destroyed,”
according to testimony.
Prosecutors allege that
Butler reported the vials as
missing in retaliation for and to
deflect attention from difficul
ties with the university’s
Institutional Review Board.

tias, continue to operate separately from other
insurgents, U.S. officials say.
U.S. officials also have identified several
groups they label as extremist:
—Muntada al-Wilaya: A Shiite extremist group
operating in Baghdad and southern Iraq. It wants to
eject American forces and set up an Islamic state
like Iran’s. American officials have suspicions that
this group is linked to the Qods Force, an Iranian
special forces unit that reports to the religious gov
ernment in Tehran, and to Lebanese Hezbollah.
—Ansar al-Islam: A Sunni group, composed
primarily of ethnic Kurds from Iraq’s north, that
U.S. officials say has ties to the al-Qaida terror
network. Members may be acting as local fixers
for foreign al-Qaida members entering Iraq.
—Abu Musab Zarqawi: A man, not a group,
with al-Qaida ties. This Jordanian is thought to be
working with Ansar al-Islam but also leads his
own network in Iraq.
Various U.S. officials have also spoken gener
ally of “foreign fighters” as a threat. While some
may be operating under al-Qaida’s umbrella,
many are thought to be lone actors or small groups
inspired to wage jihad, or religiously motivated
war, against U.S. forces.
