Most of the attention is on what the military calls Shia "special groups," who've been blamed for three-fourths of anti-American violence in Iraq lately. But now comes a reminder that there is still a Sunni-led resistance, too. Iraqi National Security Adviser Muwafaq al-Rubaei told Voices of Iraq that Izzat Ibrahim al-Douri, the former vice president and Baathist, is based in Damascus and supporting fighters in Iraq.

Rubaei said that former vice president Izzat al-Douri is in Syria. "We have an accurate intelligence report which indicates that he is Syria and he finances several armed groups," said Rubaei.
