U.S forces in Iraq suspect that Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, leader of al-Qaeda in Iraq, has fled to Iran. Iraq's intelligence services have received information that the Jordanian-born terrorist was spotted in areas close to the Himreen Mountains, 75 miles south of Kirkuk and near the border with Iran.

Adu Humpmahn, press secretary for al-Qaeda acknowledged that Zarqawi has gone to Iran, but denied that he had “fled” Iraq. “We are winning in Iraq,” said Humpmahn. “Why would Zarqawi flee?”

“Zarqawi is merely taking a break while he plans even mightier blows against the American Crusaders,” said Humpmahn. “Zarqawi will be touring some historic sites and enjoying the world famous Iranian cuisine. He is particularly fond of Donbalaan.” (Donbalaan is a dish of fried sheep testicles, eggs, bread crumbs, and parsley).

He's stopping by on his way to taking over port operations in the UAE.

This may be true, and it just might be disinformation to throw us off his trail.

Most likely he's there to get help from the otherwise useless mullahs.

Nothing new here (persay). Or should I say nothing here to clearly suggest he is actually in Iran - In that Zarqawi has worked both border regions (Syrian & Iranian) since he has been in Iraq - And used the Himrren Mountains as his original hideout early on -

That is the area ansar-al-Islam was originally before we ran them into Iran, correct?
