The terrorist Abu Younis is one of the extremists who has close ties to Abu Musab al-Zarqawi and is the mastermind of more than 60 terrorist attacks in Baghdad, targeting governmental officials and Iraqi army and police it said.
The announcement added that the terrorist confessed to making more than 20 car bombs ... in addition to recruiting foreign suicide attackers.

How about filling it with all the unedible pig parts that remain after a humane slaughter .
Easier to just say pig.
there could be several reasons...
first of all, the raid they got him in could have included several people. These guys dont normally go anywhere alone.
It probably took a while to identify him. Aliases over there can be sentences long after all. Once they identified him and he (probably) confirmed that and started singing like a bird, they wanted to announce it as "progress".
He will get his eventually. He has murdered and maimed countless numbers over there....
WE don't do anything with them. Iraq took them into custody. They will "deal" with him much better than we ever could. Durbin isn't a senator in Iraq. Praise God.
