1. (U) The Department has reviewed its files and finds
that it possesses no credible information of gross
violations of human rights at this time by the members of
the Iraqi Security Forces listed below. Department
strongly suggests that visa applications for these
individuals be filed with as much time as possible to allow
for additional processing procedures that may be
required. Note that if, at any time, the Embassy becomes
aware of any information regarding incidents which could
be deemed to be credible information of a gross violation
of human rights by these individuals, the Embassy should so
inform the Department.
