Al-Jazeera airs video of Iraq’s most-wanted

Rawi, who carries a $1 million bounty on his head, was also Jack of Spades on the “deck of cards” of 55 most-wanted suspects distributed by the Pentagon at the outset of the invasion.

In the aired footage, Rawi accuses the US forces of using neutron and phosphorus bombs during their assault on Baghdad airport ahead of the April 9 capture of the Iraqi capital.

His face is difficult to identify due to low light. He is seen sitting in what appears to be a living room wearing a black and white kefiya, the traditional Arab headdress.

“The enemy used neutron and phosporus weapons against Baghdad airport…there were bodies burnt to their bones,” he alleges, adding that elite Iraqi soldiers fought until they were martyred”.
