The
Iraqi National Congress (INC) is a secular Iraqi opposition
group that is based in London and backed and funded by the US.
It is led by Ahmed
Chalabi, who is expected to play a key role in the
post-Saddam regime in Iraq.
The
INC was founded in 1992 to comprise Kurdish and Shia Iraqi
opposition members. In 1995, an attempt by the INC to organize
an uprising against Saddam’s regime failed and many lives were
lost.
The
Iraq Liberation Act, which was passed by the US Congress in
1998, granted the INC a sum of $97 million.
