U.S. plans to build a democracy using former Baathists have gone awry in Fallujah and Ramadi.
Sunday, August 29, 2004 -
Baghdad, Iraq - While U.S. troops have been battling Islamic militants to an uncertain outcome in Najaf, the Shiite holy city, events in two Sunni Muslim cities that stand astride the crucial western approaches to Baghdad have moved significantly against American plans to build a secular democracy in Iraq.
Both of the cities, Fallujah and Ramadi, and much of Anbar Province, are now controlled by fundamentalist militias, with U.S. troops confined mainly to heavily protected forts on the desert's edge.
What little influence the Americans have is asserted through forays in armored vehicles, and by laser-guided bombs that obliterate enemy refuges identified by scouts who penetrate militant ranks.
Even bombing raids appear to strengthen the fundamentalists, who blame the Americans for scores of civilian deaths.
American efforts to build a government structure around former Baath Party stalwarts - officials of Saddam Hussein's army, police force and bureaucracy who were willing to work with the United States - have collapsed.
Instead, the former Hussein loyalists, under threat of beheadings, kidnappings and humiliation, have mostly resigned or defected to the fundamentalists, or been killed.
