1- How an old woman managed to hide her only 2 sons from the Iraqi regime of Saddam Husain.

Two Iraqi brothers made their home a prison for 23 years to escape execution by Saddam Hussein's security forces, seeing daylight only after his fall.

Their mother Zahra Ibrahim lived in terror while hiding her sons Saad and Ibrahim. Any mistake would have been fatal. She endured repeated interrogation and constant surveillance by security men looking for the two boys. Her husband, pregnant daughter and another son had already been executed as suspected members of the Shi'ite Muslim Daawa Party.
"For 23 years I lived in fear and anxiety. My tears never dried until Saddam was toppled," Zahra, 67, told Reuters at her humble home in a crowded quarter of Baghdad.

Zahra hid her sons in a room inside the house, keeping the secret even from her closest relatives. She managed to convince the security forces they were in Iraqi jails. In 1989, a bureaucratic slip-up helped Zahra's cause: the security forces told her all her detained relatives, including Saad and Ibrahim, had been executed. Ibrahim showed documents taken from security headquarters after Saddam's overthrow which list them among those executed in 1989 for belonging to the "criminal" Daawa party.

But the harassment at Zahra's house never stopped. "We never left home. The first time we ventured into the garden at night was in 1996. We were afraid the neighbors would see us and report us to the security forces," Ibrahim said.

The two men, now 45 and 39, whiled away the years reading religious books and talking to their mother and four sisters. Only the five women and a neighbor, a close family friend, were in on the secret. "My sisters' children did not even know our names. They only knew us as uncles. We taught them what to say in case they were interrogated, we had to be very careful," Saad said.

Saad decided to disappear in 1980 and Ibrahim joined him two years later. They said they had never belonged to the Daawa party. Their family was punished because two uncles were charged with links to Daawa during the 1980-1988 Iran-Iraq war.

The uncles fled to Egypt and Iran in 1980. Iraqi security forces seized their wives and children and deported them to Iran. The husband of Zahra's daughter Sabiha also fled to Iran.

The Iraqis took Sabiha as a hostage. She never returned. "We discovered years later that she was executed in 1989 in a mass execution. She was four months' pregnant," Zahra said, tears welling in her eyes. Ibrahim was a high school student and Saad a public sector employee when they went into hiding.

"Security men dropped by the house all the time. They did not search it, but sat in the living room and asked about my sons' whereabouts. I insisted they were in jail along with my husband, son and daughter," Zahra said. She said she often went to the prison to ask about her detained relatives, always inquiring about her sons who were in fact at home, and was frequently summoned for interrogation at security headquarters.

2-For 22 years, Jawad Amer Sayed was a dead man.

Jawad was on the run from Saddam Hussein’s police in 1981, and instead of fleeing into exile, he decided to stay at home and hide. Inside a false wall he built between two rooms. For as long as it would take. It took 22 years. But on April 10, the day after Hussein fell from power, Sayed emerged from his hideaway to the amazement of relatives and friends. Only his mother, younger brother and two sisters knew from the beginning what had happened to him. An aunt learned later by mistake but had kept quiet.
 Everybody else thought he was dead. Sometimes, so did he.
 “Most of the time, it was very, very quiet. I think only death could be so quiet,” he said while holding court with visitors and admirers one recent day.

       It seems like everybody in Iraq knows Sayed’s story. It reached Baghdad by way of the relative of a television reporter who interviewed him. Newspapers ran with the tale. Iraqis argued about his feat over coffee and tea. Young people questioned whether anyone could — or would want to — hide for so long. They’d rather die, some said. Older people expressed less skepticism — they wondered why more Iraqis didn’t think of doing what he had done.
       Sayed said he went outside his homemade tomb only twice — to rebuild and repair the chamber." The last time I saw him, he was taller than me,” said Kamel Khalef, a neighbor who stands about 5 feet 8. Sayed embraced Khalef and came up only to his nose.
Sayed’s face is all cheekbone and beard. He lost his teeth, and stores them in a matchbox.
 “They fell one by one. I kept them to remember the time I spent. Look at this molar. This one was 1990,” he said.
    It is a testament to the fear instilled by Hussein that Sayed came up with a solution that condemned himself to solitary confinement.

He said he was a follower of the Dawa party, a Shiite Muslim group that battled Hussein for decades and has recently, like Sayed himself, emerged into the light of day. Secret police arrested two of his friends and they were executed. “I saw their names on a list of the executed. I thought up this idea. I built the wall in one night,” he said.
       Before going in, he buried Dawa books and pamphlets beneath the floor of another room. After emerging at the end of his imprisonment, he dug them out, too.
       Sayed lives about 100 miles southeast of Baghdad in a village of flat-roofed farmhouses scattered among date palms, sand and marshes. The chamber where he spent almost all his adult life — he is 49 — measures a yard wide by about seven feet long. To enter, he must negotiate a trap door barely wide enough for a slender person to squeeze through.
       Inside, Sayed fashioned a terraced living space from dirt he excavated when digging a well — it is located at one end of the compartment. At the other, there’s a toilet, placed somewhat higher. In between, he built a dirt platform to sit on. The lowest point is the space where he could stand and even bathe. A vent lets in air from the roof and a pipe drains water outside. A peephole no bigger than a finger’s diameter was Sayed’s window on the world. All he could see was the inner courtyard of his farmhouse and now not even that is visible. A date palm grew up to obscure the view. “I witnessed my brother’s wedding from here,” he said. “I didn’t dare go out to celebrate.”
       On one wall, he hung the necessities of his monastic life: a light bulb, for when there was electricity, a kerosene lamp, for when there was not; paintbrushes of various sizes to dust himself off; a toothbrush, which has not been useful for some time; an electric hot plate where he prepared rice and beans; and a small shelf that holds a Koran and a book of Dawa politics.
       His mother fed him fruit and vegetables through the trap door. He washed his gray cotton robe himself. He continued wearing it after his exit — it has a faded, patchy look.
       
CLOSE CALLS
       In the early years, police twice came looking for him, he said. Once, a policeman entered the adjoining room at night when everyone was asleep, rummaging about the bed that was placed over the trap door. Sayed’s mother, Aziza Masikh Dahash, awoke and screamed, and a neighbor rushed over firing a shotgun. The officer fled.
       Sayed’s mother also headed off two construction projects she feared would bring down the tomb around her son’s head. She once threw herself in front of a backhoe a neighbor was using to build a cesspool near the hidden compartment. “They thought I was crazy,” she said.
       In-laws were not let in on the secret. In Iraqi society, only blood relatives are fully trusted with deep family secrets. Once, a 13-year-old cousin of Sayed’s wandered into the house, rolled around under the bed and discovered the trap door. He crawled in, spied Sayed and ran to tell his mother, who guessed that it was her nephew and swore the boy to silence. She never told even her sister, Sayed’s mother, of the discovery.
       In 1998, one of Sayed’s sisters began to suffer delusional mental illness and talk about him and his wall. They sent her to live with relatives, lest she accidentally spill the story.

When asked how he could stand being alone, Sayed answered that he was not. Allah was in there with him, he said. “The Koran teaches that Allah is the companion of anyone who believes,” he said. He has practically memorized the Muslim holy book. When a recent visitor tried to recite some verses, Sayed quickly corrected him.
       He passed the time practicing calligraphy and kept abreast of current events via a small battery-operated radio. Arabic-language reports from the British Broadcasting Corporation were his favorite source of information.
       During the U.S.-led war, he heard the bombing — his home is near an air base and ammunition depot. The dirt road from the main highway is now littered with abandoned antiaircraft guns. When he emerged from behind the wall, he put on old sunglasses his mother had kept. He had trouble walking. Visitors have come from miles around, including strangers who want to hear his tale. He jots down the name of each visitor in a guest book. His mother tells one and all how his emergence was like “giving birth a second time.”
       Sayed wants to work — he studied management in Baghdad before going into hiding. He’s thinking of marriage. “It depends on my health,” he said. “I enjoy sleeping outside now. Looking at the stars. But, sometimes, I like to go into the wall. It is my second home. Maybe it is my first. I will leave it like it is.”
