Iraq’s Ninewa province and its capital city of Mosul have
returned as a central hub for the country’s insurgency. After the Surge in 2007
many militant groups fled north to places like Mosul where they were then
reduced by American and Iraqi forces. Now insurgents are making a comeback.
They are attempting to assert their will over the governorate’s population and
economy, and targeting the local security forces.

It now appears that insurgents have free reign in Mosul and
southern areas of Ninewa. One provincial politician said militants controlled an area stretching from Mosul down to Qayara. A parliamentarian from the Iraqi
National Movement told Al-Mada that the governorate was a haven for terrorists,
while a lawmaker from the Kurdish Coalition claimed insurgents were openly
operating in Ninewa. He blamed the marginalization of the populace as opening a
door for anti-government groups to garner support. Jessica Lewis of the
Institute for the Study of War also pointed out the protest movement in the
province, the conflict in Syria, and the return of Kurds to power after the
2013 elections as other mitigating factors for the re-birth of the insurgency. The number of attacks reported in the press shows how well established
militants are in Ninewa. From January to October there were 936 security incidents
resulting in 1,314 killed and 1,696 wounded. 720 of those attacks, 76% of the
total were in Mosul. In comparison, insurgent groups are trying to rebuild in
neighboring Anbar and have only carried out 599 attacks there for those ten
months, killing 766 people and wounding another 742. Those figures show that
the insurgency has a strong presence in Mosul and the surrounding areas. This
has only come about in the last two to three years.

The Baathist Naqshibandi is one of many groups operating in Ninewa today (Wikimedia) |
There are several different insurgent groups operating in
Ninewa. Al Qaeda in Iraq (AQI) has long claimed Mosul and the western desert
regions as a base, and started rebuilding there in 2010. Others active in the
governorate include Ansar al-Islam and the Baathist Naqshibandi. The former
for example, began claiming attacks in Ninewa on the internet during this
summer. The Naqshibandi have had a long presence in the province as well. All
three are interested in Ninewa because it provides a supply route for men and
material from Syria, and is a major source of funds. In February 2013, for
example, Ninewa Operations Command reported that AQI and others were stealing oil from a pipeline that stretched from Salahaddin to Ninewa. AQI has also
historically been involved in trucking, real estate, and the black market in fuel in Mosul. Recently groups have expanded to extorting money from
mosques, schools, university professors, and power generator operators. Those
that don’t pay receive threats and then are attacked. The Sama shopping mall
was bombed in October leaving 19 dead and wounded after it refused to give
money to Al Qaeda. It’s been said that millions of dollars are made from these
extortion rings in the city. Those funds have been a motivating factor for
the insurgency to make a return in the province. Worse yet, everyone knows what
is happening yet few are willing to publicly speak out about it including the
local government according to a senior Iraqi military intelligence officer. The
security forces have been unable to stop these activities as well.
Rather than being a deterrent the Iraqi security forces
(ISF) have alienated the local populace, failed at stabilizing the area, and
become a target in Ninewa. The ISF got off to a bad start in 2013 when it fired
into anti-government protesters in Mosul in March killing one. Human Rights
Watch also demanded that Baghdad investigate an accusation that the police
executed five people they arrested south of Mosul in May. A member of the
provincial council pointed to these events as creating divisions between the
people and the security forces. Many of the Federal Police and Army units in
the province are also not from the area, which has increased tensions with the
locals. These have contributed to the ISF operations launched in Ninewa being
ineffective. At the end of May the Defense Ministry started a major campaign
against Al Qaeda in six governorates including Ninewa. The next month 6,000 troops were deployed along the Syrian border regions of Anbar and Ninewa before
provincial elections there. In July, a security wall across from Syria was
started in Anbar that was to stretch into Ninewa, which was supposed to be
completed by September although there’s been no word if that has been
accomplished. Then in August, Baghdad started its “Revenge of the Martyrs”
campaign that included Ninewa, and another sweep along the border in
September. Finally, in October, the Chief of Staff of the Army, General Babaker
Zebari visited Governor Atheel Nujafi to discuss how the local government and
the ISF could coordinate on security. None of these reduced violence. From
May to June there was virtually no change in the number of attacks, 110 versus
98, and deaths 128 versus 122, and in July fatalities increased to 156 after
101 incidents. Then in August there were 107 reported attacks and 128 killed,
113 incidents in September leading to 192 casualties, and topped off by October
where attacks dropped to 89, but 218 ended up dead. In turn, the insurgency has
gone after the ISF supply lines to Baghdad by attacking in places like Qayara,
Shirqat and Shura. The police and army are major targets as well accounting for
719 deaths from January to October, 54% of the total. Militants are also
attempting to intimidate them by blowing up their houses, 18 of which were
destroyed since the beginning of the year. This tactic appears to be working as
Al-Mada ran a story where it claimed the Defense Ministry had to provide
incentives to keep soldiers on duty in Mosul, and that some security forces
withdrew at night for their own protection. Going after the ISF has been a
focus for all of the militant groups in the province as it undermines the
government. In turn, the heavy handed tactics used by the security forces such
as mass arrests and the shooting of demonstrators has angered many in Ninewa
reducing the levels of intelligence and cooperation offered severely hindering
counter insurgency operations. Finally, the government is misappropriating its
resources by constantly deploying to the border regions instead of Mosul, which
is a base for insurgents.
Last, the insurgency is attempting to scare and intimidate
local officials and the general population in Ninewa. The number of attacks
upon notables in the province, and especially Mosul is mind numbing. On January
2 the nephew to Speaker Osama Nujafi who hails from Ninewa was assassinated in
Mosul. January 14 a sheikh from the Jabour tribe was gunned down. The
next day a parliamentarian from the Dawa Party had his car blown up by a sticky bomb. January 21 a Patriotic Union of Kurdistan
official was targeted by a roadside bomb. February 4 the former head of
the provincial council was targeted by a roadside bomb. The following day
a council member was wounded after being shot, and February 6 another
councilman was hit by a roadside bomb. February 10, Speaker Nujafi’s
motorcade was struck by a roadside bomb, something that would be repeated on October 9. April 16 Governor Nujafi’s motorcade was struck by a roadside bomb, to be followed by attempts on his life on June 1, June 13, June 26, and August 28. July 8 the spokesman for the council was killed. August 4 a council member from the Mutahidun party faced a roadside bomb, as well as the head of the Ninewa Iraqi Turkmen Front on August 4, and the
head of the provincial council on August 8. September 29 five neighborhood
mayors were assassinated. That led 18 more to resign, and the mayor of Mosul to
suspend their work after the attacks. The general public has not escaped the violence,
as there are constant shootings and bombings of ordinary people every week. In
late August into September for instance, the Shabak community was targeted with
the shooting of three men in Mosul on August 19. August 28, 1 Shabak was
killed and four wounded by a roadside bomb in the city. One more was
gunned down in Alsideeq the next day. Finally, a suicide bomber struck a
funeral in Mosul killing 15 and wounding another 20 on September 14. That
led to some of the community to flee as a result. Again, the purpose was to
stoke fear in the populace, the local administration and those notables who
hailed from Ninewa. The Nujafi family has been a particularly favorite target,
since their assassinations would be a major coup for insurgents. These constant
attacks are probably a reason why more people and politicians don’t stand up to
the militants.
Ninewa is once again an urban bastion of the insurgency.
Several different groups such as Al Qaeda in Iraq, Ansar al-Sunni, Naqshibandi
and perhaps others have rebuilt their networks throughout the province, and are
carrying out a steady campaign to wear down the government, security forces,
and people. Militants earn a huge amount of money through their extortion rings
in Mosul to carry out these operations. They are also able to bring in fighters
and supplies from Syria through Ninewa. Their tactics appear to be working, as
there are more and more stories of militants being able to act uninhibited in
the province. The Americans and Iraqis were never quite able to shake the hold
of the insurgency over Mosul. Now it is back and terrorizing the area. The governorate
is a perfect location because many in the populace and political class are
opposed to Baghdad. That offers more opportunities for at least passive support
of the militants, especially for groups like the Naqshibandi that play upon
nationalist themes. In turn, the bases in Ninewa can be used to launch further
attacks into the central part of the country. The province is therefore an
important battleground between the government and militants, which the former
is losing.
