Baghdad : Iraqi troopers have killed a prominent militant believed to be a top aide of the Al Qaeda leader in Iraq, an army spokesman told the independent news agency Voices of Iraq (VOI) Saturday.

Mowafaq Yassin, identified as "the right-hand man of Al Qaeda's leader in Iraq Abu Hamza al-Muhajir," was shot after a firefight in the area of Badosh, 40 km west of Mosul, Friday, Brigadier Mutaa al-Khazraji told VOI.

"After clashes that continued for 30 minutes the soldiers killed him inside his home," said Khazraji. The senior officer said that Yassin specialised in preparing car bombs used in suicide operations.

I think he’s going for the All Your Base effect, and a muslim would call Satan Shaitan.

Satan must really be having a fit having to constantly take what amounts to more Clymers than a Democrat Convention with these guys. I wonder if he’s been forced to put in foot baths.
