  • Q: It's September 23, 2008, and We're Talking to Lieutenant
    United States Institute of Peace Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training Iraq PRT Experience Project INTERVIEW #48 Interviewed by: Marilyn Greene Initial interview date: Sept.23, 2008 Copyright 2008 USIP & ADST Executive Summary Began work late 2007 with six-member PRT for Najaf, Karbala and Diwaniyah, located at the REO, Hillah. Later, the PRT split into three separate teams. Diwaniya moved to FOB Echo. Karbala and Najaf were able to go to their provinces, which were PIC provinces. These were the first two established in independently controlled provinces. Meant they were removed from Coalition Force presence. I was with Karbala PRT, located in Husseiniyah, adjacent to an Iraqi military compound, 13 kilometers from Karbala. Used contracted security escorts, either Blackwater or Triple Canopy. Another alternative was using DOD helicopters, which was preferred because it was simpler. PRT mission: expand governance capacity and efficacy; expand economic development; help in the equitable execution of the rule of law; expand central services capacity. Thought OPA worked OK, saw it as providing general direction and coordinating efforts of different PRTs. Especially appreciated their provision of excellent BBAs, plus good Justice and Agriculture people. OPA helped develop maturity models: where we are now, where we wanted to be in six months or 12 months, and what roadmap we would use to get from here to there, and what resources we would need to get there. Looking at the broad spectrum of PRTs all over Iraq, OPA would say ‘They’re doing very good in economic reform in Najaf, but I see in Karbala they’re having a hard time getting industrial expansion going, maybe we should get them additional resources to meet their goal.’ And that’s what I saw as OPA’s function.

    Lafta et al. Conflict and Health (2018) 12:31 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13031-018-0167-8 RESEARCH Open Access Living in Mosul during the time of ISIS and the military liberation: results from a 40-cluster household survey R. Lafta1, V. Cetorelli2 and G. Burnham3* Abstract Background: In June 2014, an estimated 1500 fighters of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) seized control of Mosul, Iraq’s second city. Although many residents fled, others stayed behind, enduring the restrictive civil and social policies of ISIS. In December 2016, the military activity, known as the liberation campaign, began in east Mosul, concluding in west Mosul in June 2017. Methods: To assess life in Mosul under ISIS, and the consequences of the military campaign to retake Mosul we conducted a 40 cluster-30 household survey in Mosul, starting in March 2017. All households included were present in Mosul throughout the entire time of ISIS control and military action. Results: In June 2014, 915 of 1139 school-age children (80.3%) had been in school, but only 28 (2.2%) attended at least some school after ISIS seized control. This represented a decision of families. Injuries to women resulting from intimate partner violence were reported in 415 (34.5%) households. In the surveyed households, 819 marriages had occurred; 688 (84.0%) among women. Of these women, 89 (12.9%) were aged 15 years and less, and 253 (49.7%) were aged under 18 at the time of marriage. With Mosul economically damaged by ISIS control and physically during the Iraqi military action, there was little employment at the time of the survey, and few persons were bringing cash into households.
