the story will have changed again.

I suspect that "round up the usual suspects" exercise that went on shortly after the martyring of Hakim was just to put forth some image that the authorities are NOT completely powerless, really they have control over what's going on, just go shopping and everything's really going good. Thus Chalabi goes right out and says what Rumsfeld wants to hear, it's "regime loyalists" (admittedly, I suspected that also for it was for once one of the only suggestions that made sense) and "al-Qai'dah", etc..
