Arab Fighters Say Iraqis Sold Them Out to U.S.
(Reuters) Lin Noueihed - Ahmed Abdel Razzaq went to Iraq to fight the Americans and die a martyr. He ended up in a U.S. prison camp after the Iraqis he went to defend captured and sold him for $100. Motivated by religious zeal or Arab nationalism, busloads of Arab volunteers crossed Syria to go to Iraq before and during the war. The U.S. said in November it had over 300 suspected non-Iraqi fighters in its custody in Iraq.
