Mohammed Baqir al-Hakim, whose Shiite Supreme Council of the Islamic Revolution in Iraq is the largest Iraqi opposition group, has decided to return to Iraq from his exile in Iran. His spokesman, Haj Abu Zeid, said al-Hakim had not yet decided when he would go.

Al-Hakim's group, which claims to have 10,000 fighters, has said for years that it has spread guerrillas throughout Iraq in anticipation of a revolution. Abu Zeid said the group has told its troops inside Iraq to not confront U.S.-led forces and await Saddam's fall. However, he reiterated his group's rejection of a U.S. administration in Iraq.

I wonder if these people are the underlying reason Khoei(pro-west) was hacked to death along with Kelidar who purported was a Saddam Hussein loyalist in Najaf. What ever happened to the 100 or so bad guys held up in that shrine which the US forces stood down instead of going through the crowds?
