The demonstrators, enraged by military action against Iraqi Shia Muslim fighters in Najaf, screamed, "Down, down Allawi" and "Allawi, you coward, you American agent".
Allawi is our new Saddam without a mustache. The foreign press has already reported that Allawi has personally executed detainees. Obviously Allawi is as much a thug as Saddam, and he deserves the same fate!
BTW, Paul McGeough who broke the story had to flee Iraq for his life after his newspaper published it. The American press has never run this story!
Allawi shot prisoners in cold blood: witnesses
By Paul McGeough in Baghdad
July 17, 2004Iyad Allawi, the new Prime Minister of Iraq, pulled a pistol and executed as many as six suspected insurgents at a Baghdad police station, just days before Washington handed control of the country to his interim government, according to two people who allege they witnessed the killings.
They say the prisoners - handcuffed and blindfolded - were lined up against a wall in a courtyard adjacent to the maximum-security cell block in which they were held at the Al-Amariyah security centre, in the city's south-western suburbs.
They say Dr Allawi told onlookers the victims had each killed as many as 50 Iraqis and they "deserved worse than death".

But the informants told the Herald that Dr Allawi shot each young man in the head as about a dozen Iraqi policemen and four Americans from the Prime Minister's personal security team watched in stunned silence.
