‘Chemical Ali’ Dead?
Three Key Iraqi Leaders Believed Killed; Explosions Shake Baghdad
B A G H D A D, Iraq, March 21 — Three top Iraqi leaders — including Saddam Hussein's cousin, the infamous "Chemical Ali" — are believed to have been killed in what would be a major blow to the regime's defense against the U.S.-led onslaught, sources told ABCNEWS.
ABCNEWS' Brian Ross reported that the three critical Iraqi officials — Taha Yasin Ramadan, Izzat Ibrahim al Douri, and Ali Hassan Majid, known as Chemical Ali — are believed to have died in Wednesday night's "decapitation attack," the opening salvo of the war.
A CIA spokesman denied the report, but American intelligence sources said they reached this conclusion from analysis of radio traffic and after watching who went where, and who didn't arrive where they were expected.
"Chemical Ali," Saddam's cousin and governor of southern Iraq, earned his chilling nickname by using chemical weapons to suppress a Kurdish rebellion in northern Iraq in the late 1980s, killing thousands.
Both Ramadan and Ibrahim were longtime advisers to Saddam. Along with Saddam himself, the two men were the only surviving plotters who carried out the coup that brought the Baath Party to power in 1968.
The three men did not appear in a videotape of Saddam meeting with advisers released today. Also absent was Saddam's eldest son Odai. There are suspicions he also may have been killed, but this could not be confirmed.
