SPIES
U.S.-led occupation authorities in Iraq have begun a covert campaign to recruit and train Iraqi spies to help identify resistance to American forces, the Washington Post said on Sunday.

Citing unnamed U.S. and Iraqi officials, the newspaper said the move to recruit agents of ousted president Saddam Hussein underscores a growing recognition among U.S. officials that American forces alone cannot prevent attacks like the bombing of U.N. headquarters in Baghdad on Tuesday.
