"...well dressed" and "polite"

Who are Zarqawi's minders? Anyone have any good info?

"...his escorts were well dressed with a look about them that was different from the casualties and family members we had been receiving from the al-Qaim offensive,”

Well dressed? What does that mean - they don't have crap all over their clothes or well dressed to western standards (i.e., suits, ties, etc.)

"The three men with him asked me politely that he be allowed to leave hospital immediately and that i supply them with a prescription and a list of medication that he may need,”

Intriguing. Who are these guys?
