BAGHDAD - The suspected leader of an al-Qaida-linked militant network was captured Thursday by Iraqi military forces.
Abu Omar al-Baghdadi has been a key target for U.S. and Iraqi forces for years as the leader of the Islamic State of Iraq, an umbrella group of Sunni militant factions that is believed dominated by al-Qaida in Iraq.

Very good news. He is the highest value target in Iraq. We definately need an enhanced interrogation of this guy. Let's hope that surf's up for this dude.

In fact “Abou Omar AL Baghdadi” is just a spokesman of Al Qaeda terrorists in Iraq and he is just an actor. The real leader of Al Qaeda terrorists in Iraq is called “Abou Hamza Al Mouhajer”.

No, first we have to "Mirandize" him, furnish him a lawyer from the ACLU and then release him on bail in New York City so he can have all sorts of interviews on MSNBC, CNN and CBS. </sarcasm>

I would, if I had my way, roll a bullet on a piece of pork in front of them and then aim it at him, demanding to know what he knows about the rest of the insurgents.
Or dangle him above a pool of pigs blood and demand to know everything. Then verify. If he lies, drop the blood on him nad record his screaming. Then videotape it and then plant copies around for terrorists to find it, or simply send one to Al-Jazeera.

Al Baghdadi is just an actor. Leave it to 0bama to hype his capture as being a big deal.

After his mother writes a letter to bambi begging for us to go easy on him, I'm sure the White House can arrange for him to live in a Boston public housing project.

Barack says no torture. Now, all we get to do is hug and kiss them. Not so quick there...I'm sure that could be considered torture too (depending on who is doing the hugging and kissing). So I assume we'll need to bring his family in with him to make him comfortable while we detain him until he can be tried in the US. If he gets off we can give him welfare and set him up a new base of operations right here in the USA. If he is convicted we will do the same, but first he must pay his debt to society by allowing us to house him in a prison for a few years before we let him out into the US.

Better let him go. There’s no such thing as a Islamic terrorist. The boy-king says so.
