BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) - The Iraqi government said Tuesday it has captured a key terror suspect who allegedly confessed to hundreds of beheadings. Ahmed Hussein Dabash Samir al-Batawi was arrested by a terrorist combat unit on Monday in Baghdad, according to the prime minister's office.

The unit also seized documents, cell phones and computers that contained the names and addresses of other wanted terrorists and information on Islamic extremist groups, the government said in a statement.

"Al-Batawi is considered at the top of the terrorist list," the statement said, adding he had "committed the ugliest crimes against innocent civilians especially in Hurriyah neighborhood that witnessed many massacres."

The government said al-Batawi confessed under questioning that he beheaded hundreds of Iraqis in Baghdad and other Iraqi provinces.

A little understated, don't ya think?

LOL! Well, I was trying to be diplomatic.

[monocle]

The muslim approved method of stoning would seem extremely aappropriate.

[DCPatriot]

I just gave you one (good reason)

If your name was on that list, I'd have you covered 24/7. If you're up to no good, then everbody you talk to and communicate with becomes a known quantity to my investigation.

I hope once they've extraced as much useful information from him as they can, they put a pistol in his mouth and pull the trigger. There shouldn't be any complaints - it's a better death than his victims had.

Great! Thoroughly interrogate, perform body cavity searches on Iraqi TV, [comment censored], hold a speedy trial, [comment censored], hold a lottery among victims' families, and behead him on Iraqi TV...

...by the end of June 2006.

Another top "Zarqawi Aide?"

Here, how about trying this one for a change?

Thank you, American and Iraqi forces, for risking life and limb to capture this evil coward!!

[Coop]

Why in bloody hell is this even IN the newspaper? Now every terrorist on that list will certainly have an opportunity to disappear. Sometimes the news media uses absolutely no common sense at all.

They know what they're doing.

An excellent capture - and the above info will be causing that much more havoc on our enemies -

I was immediately struck by the similarity as well, but your post definitely drives it home. Give KSM a shower and a haircut...

[freebird5850]

I was waiting for someone to post that...look at tose t-shirts!

[Old Grumpy]

I feel like the old wood-chipping machine is called for in this instance. Lower him into it, slowly, feet first.

The insurgents slain last week were well-known aides of the group's leader, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, in an area south of Baghdad, police Maj. Gen. Hussein Abdul-Hadi said.

They were killed in clashes Friday in the nearby city of Latifiyah, he said, adding that police had been following the suspects for two months.

Another inside glimpse....
