BAGHDAD (AP) -- An Iraqi military spokesman says the leader of the al-Qaida-affiliated Islamic State of Iraq, Abu Omar al-Baghdadi, has been captured in a raid west of Baghdad. U.S. officials had no confirmation

We will be fighting here, g.c.
I don't think they ever did put up a news item on the supposed capture of Bagdadi up north last week..
So it seems to me that they are doing more than just recycling what the AP reports.,...
It's good that the Iraqi army is announcing and taking credit for this capture. (We had a big hand in it to be sure, but it's still good)
Big Bump for our awesome military!
Those Jihadi bastards have got to be more nervous than a long tailed cat sitting under a rocker chair..
Hell - I can hear the canaries singing from here -- there must be dozens of full throated birds singing continuously...
Semper Fi
A headline I would rather see:
BREAKING: Abu Omar al-Baghdadi Dies During Interrogation.
No way this surge just won't work... give it up ... pull out now before we actually win.
"Time for the next Hydra head to grow."
Capture-Interrogate-Execute.
Rinse and repeat.

Queen: Another one Bites the Dust
Steve walks warily down the street
With his brim pulled way down low
Ain't no sound but the sound of his feet
Machine guns ready to go
Are you ready hey, are you ready for this?
Are you hanging on the edge of your seat?
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat, yeah
Another one bites the dust, another one bites the dust
And another one gone, and another one gone, another one bites the dust
Hey, I'm gonna get you too, another one bites the dust
How do you think I'm going to get along
Without you when you're gone
You took me for everything that I had
And kicked me out on my own
Are you happy are you satisfied?
How long can you stand the heat
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat look out
Another one bites the dust, another one bites the dust
And another one gone, and another one gone, another one bites the dust
Hey I'm gonna get you too, another one bites the dust
Hey, Oh take it - Bite the dust bite the dust
Hey Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
Oooh shoot out
There are plenty of ways that you can hurt a man
And bring him to the ground
You can beat him, you can cheat him
You can treat him bad, and leave him when he's down
But I'm ready, yes I'm ready for you
I'm standing on my own two feet
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
Repeating to the sound of the beat
Another one bites the dust, another one bites the dust
And another one gone and another one gone
Another one bites the dust yeah, Hey I'm gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust
Shoot out
Make him sqeual like the swine he is..
bttt
Never even heard of this guy before this article. What gives ?
Happy he's out of the picture regardless.These bastards have more top leaders .............
Meanwhile, the Kerry-Biden-Dodd Express demands we run away.
Thats the problem there . They all look the same , no uniforms , no flags , no lines of battle. The guy who seeld you fruit in the morning may be the guy who blows you up at night. The enemy live with ( and sometimes IS ) the general population. We should have fouhght ALL OUT or gotten out , one or the other.
The WOT keyword keeps dropping lately can we agree to keep using that?
No kiddin'. Zero violence is impossible to achieve in ANY country. Have you seen US crime statistics lately? What is your point?
Yeah, but al-Baghdid isn't al-Baghdadi either, so that really doesn't mean much. The important part is that they captured a senior member of al Qaeda....we'll know all dozen of his names soon no doubt.
