Militants Threaten Iraq PM After Beheading Hostage


BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Islamist militants vowed on Wednesday to 
assassinate Iraq (news - web sites)'s interim prime minister, just 
hours after they said they had beheaded a South Korean hostage in the 
violent run-up to a U.S. handover to Iraqi rule. 
 
Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, a Jordanian accused by U.S. officials of 
organizing many deadly attacks in Iraq, made the threat against Prime 
Minister Iyad Allawi on an Islamist Web site. 

"As for you, Allawi -- sorry, the democratically elected prime 
minister -- we have found for you a useful poison and a sure sword," 
said a taped voice, purported to be Zarqawi's own. 

Allawi, a tough former Baathist who plotted against Saddam Hussein 
(news - web sites) from exile, responded defiantly. 

"We do not care about these threats, we will continue to rebuild Iraq 
and work for freedom, democracy, justice and peace. Iraqis have faced 
these threats before," said a spokesman from his office. 

The interim government, selected by a U.N. envoy in consultation with 
U.S. and Iraqi officials, will be sworn in when the U.S.-led 
occupation formally ends in a week's time. 

Zarqawi's group, Jama'at al-Tawhid and Jihad, said on Tuesday it had 
decapitated South Korean hostage Kim Sun-il after Seoul refused to 
withdraw forces from Iraq. 

Hours after finding Kim's body, U.S. forces launched an air strike on 
a suspected safe house of Zarqawi's group in Falluja, west of 
Baghdad, the second such raid in four days. Residents said the attack 
destroyed a garage and killed four people. 

Arabic Al Jazeera television showed footage on Tuesday of hooded 
gunmen standing over a kneeling Kim, who was blindfolded and wearing 
an orange tunic similar to those worn by prisoners in U.S. detention 
facilities such as Guantanamo Bay. 

"We warned you and you ignored it," one of the men said. "Enough 
lies. Your army is not here for the sake of Iraqis but for the sake 
of cursed America." 

Al Jazeera said the tape then showed a man cutting off Kim's head 
with a knife. It did not broadcast that part. 

South Korean President Roh Moo-hyun denounced Kim's killing and said 
his country would still send 3,000 more troops to Iraq to join its 
670 engineers and medics there. 

"BRUTAL ACTION" 

The Arabic-speaking South Korean translator, who shouted "I don't 
want to die" in an earlier videotape, was kidnapped in Falluja. His 
firm initially said he had been taken on June 17, but the Foreign 
Ministry in Seoul said it might have been earlier. 

Washington, which views Zarqawi as an ally of Osama bin Laden (news - 
web sites)'s al Qaeda network and a chief architect of violence in 
Iraq, has put a $10 million bounty on his head. 

"The free world cannot be intimidated by the brutal action of these 
barbaric people," President Bush (news - web sites) said. 

Zarqawi and other insurgents have intensified a campaign of bombings, 
assassinations and attacks on oil targets to disrupt the June 30 
handover to Allawi's government. 

A roadside bomb blast killed a woman and a small boy and wounded the 
woman's husband in Baghdad on Wednesday. The husband kept asking 
hospital staff to call his wife, unaware she was dead. The couple had 
been married 15 days. 

Kim's parents had urged their government to do everything to save 
their son, a devout Christian who had worked in Iraq for a year for a 
South Korean firm supplying the U.S. army. 

After news of his death, they sat cross-legged and stunned in their 
modest backstreet house in the South Korean city of Pusan, as his 
sister wailed and thrashed around in grief. 

Kim's killing echoed the beheadings of a U.S. hostage in Iraq last 
month and a U.S. hostage in Saudi Arabia last week. All three were 
dressed in orange before being killed by militants said to have links 
to al Qaeda. 

Since early April, dozens of foreigners have been seized in Iraq. 
Many have been freed, but at least four have been killed. 

Signaling readiness to defuse tension with Britain, Iranian Foreign 
Minister Kamal Kharrazi said eight British servicemen held in Iran 
after their boats strayed into the Islamic Republic's waters would be 
freed on Wednesday. 

But an Iranian television station said later the release was likely 
to be delayed until Thursday. The report also said the three British 
boats would stay in Iranian naval custody. 

Iranian forces captured the Britons on Monday in the wreck-infested 
Shatt al-Arab waterway along the Iraqi border.
