No, especially if he's not admitting who he is and/or altered his appearance.

He is bigger than we think....

When Saddam was in power, Abu Ayman was a senior aide to the Chief of Staff of Intelligence.

This just wasn't a head chopper....this dude knows where all the bodies are buried so to speak.

No wonder they ran a DNA test on him.

Tahir Jalil Haboush was the head of Iraqi intelligence leading up to the war...Haboush is still at large I think.

captured a former senior intelligence official under Saddam Hussein who now has close ties to the al-Qaeda leader in Iraq Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.

I thought the article made it pretty clear this dude's a major player. Let's hope he's squealing like a pig.

I hope they interrogated him with a blow torch and a rusty pair of pliers.




They just need Marsellus to call in "a coupla hard, pipe-hittin' n***as to go to work on the Homes..."

Yup, the guy they caught was Deputy Chief in Saddam's intel and was in charge of massaging the press and has been doing so for the insurgency. This is a major coup, the insurgents can't replace him. The only bigger fish is Zarqawi.

I don't think so.
