Death of a Monster
After Zarqawi
View From Baghdad: How Zarqawi's Death May Change the Game

Just minutes after Maliki's triumphant press conference, he presented names for the still-empty posts of Interior, Defense and National Security in the new government. It was a solid win for the Sunnis and seen as a reward for finally turning on Zarqawi. For Defense, they got Gen. Abdel Qader Jassim, a Sunni general, the current commander of the Iraqi Army and, famously, the general who advised Saddam to withdraw from Kuwait in 1991. For the post of Interior minister, Maliki named Shi'ite Jawad al-Bolani, a former colonel under Saddam and a close aide to Sheikh Karim Al-Mohammadawi, the "Prince of the Marshes," a local Shi'ite boss in the south opposed to Iran. Both men will be acceptable to the Sunnis, who loathed the former interior minister, Bayan Jabr, a religious Shi'ite tied to the Badr Organization, a Shi'ite militia still believed closely connected with the Iranian Revolutionary Guards.Bolani's anti-Iran credentials are solid. In January 2005, while standing for election for the transitional Iraqi parliament, al-Bolani told TIME: "The Iranian system will never happen in Iraq, and most Islamic movements agree with me on that."
