- Abboud Qanbar, also known as Abu Haidar, is a Shiite Iraqi Lieutenant General. He was appointed by Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki to lead the 2007 Baghdad crackdown in February 2007, though he was considered a relatively unknown officer. Qanbar was a compromise choice after the US Army rejected Maliki's first choice, Mohan al-Freiji. Qanbar announced the details of the new security plan on live Iraqi television on February 13. Qanbar fought in the Iran–Iraq War and was a brigadier general in the navy during the 1991 Gulf War. He was captured by American forces on Fialaka, a Kuwaiti island, and was briefly transferred to Saudi Arabia before his release. Despite being captured, Qanbar was later decorated by Saddam Hussein for his bravery in defense of the island. After the war, Qanbar was posted in Basra, but was excluded from new commands after he refused to stop the 1991 Shiite uprising.
