🧵Rare photos related to the 1959 Iraqi Baathist uprising in mosul (shawaf movement), brought to colour.
Fadhil Hammadi Al-Shakra (فاضل حمادي الشكرة), one of the leaders of the 1959 uprising against Abdel Karim Qasim and the communist militia. A picture of him around 1955 and a picture before his hanging in 1959.
Abd alwahab alshawaf (عبد الوهاب الشواف) before 1959, another leader who was killed in the uprising.
Arab superstition as usual, all these theories, Saddam killed Abdul Salam Arif, Ahmad Hasan Albakr and Adnan Khayrallah.

In the biographical film by JTJ about Abu Anas al-Shami, the testimony of Abu Azzam (a founding member of the group) mentions that it was Abu Anas who proposed using the name "Jama'at al-Tawhid wal-Jihad" for the group and bringing it into the public eye as soon as possible xitter.gq/Movlad15/status/211090…
