“The U.S. military also announced the Wednesday arrest in northern Arab Jabour of a man described as a foreign fighter who heads a car-bombing cell network.
The man, who was not named, is an Egyptian-born militant who came to Iraq in the early 1980s and later joined al Qaeda fighters, the military said.
“He has Iraqi citizenship and [is] believed to be a former high-ranking official of the Baath party during Saddam Hussein’s reign,” the military said.”
This just can’t be so toby....there were no AQ in Iraq until we got there doncha know. This will be ignored by the propagandists in the “mainstream” media. Perhaps President Bush will bring it up next week when he gives another speech about Iraq. We can hope so anyway.
