Here is my vote. Prison garb is a burka. Streisand 'music' 24/7. All meals made with pork products. Cell mate is gay jewish body builder with a propensity for violence. Prison guards are Israeli women who have lost either children or husbands to homicide bombers. Make sure that Al Jazeera and CNN get to videotape and distribute the prison activities to the Arab world.
And series if true
I'm waiting for our Military to confirm this before I start cheering.....
Lets see -- we got him -- Russia/China report it and we do not. I imagine whatever intel he could have given would have been more valuable had the world not known he was captured.
Is he the guy with the lazy eye?
John Kerry was arrested?

URGENT: 'TARGET #1': al-Zarqawi reportedly arrested in Iraq...
The site won't load for me. We are all hitting it at the same time. LOL
Why isn't this in breaking news? Once it is confirmed...I'm sure it will be. Correct?
>>>I want him alive and tortured into giving us everything he knows - like where bin Laden is, who's financing the insurgents, etc. Then kill him.<<<
And, I want it broadcast over all television sets everywhere.

04.01 / 11:36 | 700 Abu Musab al-Zarqawi reportedly arrested in Iraq.
Dubai, January 4. KAZINFORM. - Abu Mus'ab al-Zarqawi, whom the US occupation authorities declared to be the "target number one" in Iraq, has been arrested in the city of Baakuba, the Emirate newspaper al-Bayane reported on Tuesday referring to Kurdish sources. Al-Zarqawi, leader of the terrorist group Al-Tawhid Wa'al-Jihad, was recently appointed the director of the Al-Qaeda organisation in Iraq, Kazinform refers to Itar-Tass.
The newspaper's correspondent in Baghdad points out that a report on the seizure of the terrorist, on whom the US put a bounty of 10 million dollars, was also reported by Iraqi Kurdistan radio, which at one time had been the first to announce the arrest of Saddam Hussein.
There have been no official reports about the arrest of the terrorist.
Al-Zarqawi, 38, a Jordanian, whose real name is Ahmad al-Khalayleh, aims to turn Iraq into a "new Afghanistan". According to Arab press data, Al-Tawhid Wa'al-Jihad group has divided Iraq into several emirates. The group's independent subdivisions at a strength of 50 to 500 militants operate in the cities of Al-Falluja, Al-Qaim, Diala, and Samarra.
The personnel of the group is on the whole 1,500-strong and includes Iraqis and citizens of Arab and Islamic countries. There are demolition experts and missilemen among them.
The group has depots of weapons and explosives in various parts of the country. It intends to frustrate the upcoming parliamentary elections that are scheduled for the end of this month. Al-Tawhid Wa'al-Jihad threatens to do away with Iraqi Prime Minister Ayad Allawi and members of the interim government.
No help here, a repeat with no confirmation.
*BANG**BANG**BANG**BANG* ... FREEZE OR I'LL SHOOT!
(Damn, I always get that in the wrong order.)
Ditto. Got my fingers crossed. I MUST do some work. Please, please ping me if anything looks good.
Wait a minute... Didn't the dems say Al-Qaeda had no ties to Iraq??
About five minutes.

Will this help to bring peace or enflame his followers? Many would liked to have seen him KIA, but personally I am glad he was arrested because he would have been dubbed a martyr if we killed him.....if this report is true. I'm hoping it is, but don't want to get my hopes up too high!
