    Yes, this is a flag of the Shia Militia. You will see the Hezbollah influence and Iranian influence in different flags.
    Two sets of my arm patches in the pinned area under Peace Brigades and Brigades of the Popular Defense is worn by the
    Hezbollah Battalions in Iraq and is lead by Abbas Muhammadawl.

    A 53 inch wide by 34 in. high banner for the Brigade of Imam Ali.
    This is a soft synthetic material.
    I have found three different types of banner (flag) material.
    Stiffer, more like rayon - soft material - and real soft like satin.
    Translation above - the Islamic Movement
    Inside sword - No boy like Imam Ali and no sword like the sword of Imam Ali (Zulfiqar).
    Zulfiqar is the sword name of Imam Ali.
    Two supporting pictures.

    Cedric,
    I still have a few to go so keep looking. It's hard to get a decent picture of the larger size flags.
    I even had my wife hold it up on a pole so it was nice and straight when I took the picture but they
    still come out a little "off". I like the pictures with even borders all around.
    It's nice to see people sign their names after posting. At least I know who I'm talking to.
