'There is no greater shame than to see your country occupied'
Early one morning this week, when the police have yet to set up too
many checkpoints, Abu Mujahed will strap a mortar underneath a car,
drive to a friend's in central Baghdad and bury the weapon in his
garden. In the evening he will return with the rest of his group,
sleep for a few hours and then take the weapon from its hiding place.
He will calculate the range using the American military's own maps and
satellite pictures - bought in a bazaar - and fire a few rounds at a
military base or the US Embassy or at the Iraqi Prime Minister's
office. Then Abu Mujahed will shower, change and, by 10am, be at his
desk in one of the major ministries.
