Fantastic! Another victory! And carried-out by Iraq's own indigenous military!
Cindy has her werk cut-out for her after this one.

It's good news I guess.....
I never would have guessed that there were so many Al Queda operatives in Iraq.....
What I found disturbing was part after , "in other developments"......JK

Re: No. 2 al-Qaida leader in Iraq arrested by Iraqi forces

Am I wrong in my thinking that the problem in iraq and the trouble israel has is that the middle east just does not want the competition from Captlist countries ? I know religion plays a part and the fact that men just like to prepare for battle, and the song "whats it all about" is hitting home.

No need to appologise for alqueda here. And Haut, I'll bet alqueda is even in your town.
No need to explain enemy motives. Everyone knows what they are already.
Bernieb, you are so right about the religion trhing.
This war is far more biblical than any human can claim it is political.
It's not "men who like to prepare for war", it is mankind. Always was,is and shall be. Nature of the demoted beast.

Self edit:
When I read the post again it didn't really say what I meant.
AH DUH!
Try going to Sea-Tac Airport.
More RagHead/Mulsim taxie drivers than you can count!
None of them will shake your hand! (yes Ive tried)
The last time I went there to pick up someone, there were about 15-20 of them standing around and showed me a place to park that I could not see. (all smiling ofcourse)
When I walked by them a couple minutes later and stuck out my hand to thank them.
They explained that it wasn't their custom to shake hands.
What a Semi Lie!
They just didn't explain they won't shake the hand of an non believer.

On 911 2001 Fisher Broadcast showed Muslins Cheering as (re-broadcast) as the twin towers fell.
Never to be seen on TV again.
When I questioned this to them, they told me I was crazy!
It never happened!
Mrs.Liink who is a Liberal (just said WTF) we saw this yesterday..

Me thinks that El-Qaida is much like a mythical monster.Whenever you cut off one of its heads,another twelve will grow right in its place.

Re: No. 2 al-Qaida leader in Iraq arrested by Iraqi forces

So I take it "Rag heads" are the enemy? Is this information new, and have you told the authorities of your discovery?

I'm happy we got the Alqaida guy, for whatever that is worth. Not sure it will make much of a difference in Iraq, however, as Alqaida in Iraq does not appear to be the biggest threat we face over there.

It won't make much of a difference in Iran, either, as Alqaida isn't much of a friend to them.

When your stir up a hornets nest, killing a few individual bees may be a good thing, but hardly a decisive one.

Re: No. 2 al-Qaida leader in Iraq arrested by Iraqi forces

yep I fear its a medusa monster. #3 will now take #2 and all wil continue on, whats funny is prior to 2003 there was no al-queda in Iraq.
it only got there due to the incridably brilliant war planning of Donald.
instead of Iraq we should have taken out saudi arabia. thats where the money was and is coming from.
however there is to much political and financial ties to do something that smart.
the next administration is gonna inherit a terrible mess I am afraid.
unless things change quite a bit the US best get ready for some serious energy shake ups.
the PDVSA sell off of its stations and some refineries in the US does not bode well.
if PDVSA has no refineries to feed nor stations to provide gasoline to there will be no need for PDVSA to send oil to the US.
but the current administration wont deal with the latin american issue, only poke them with sharp sticks and act like they dont matter.
trade sanctions cannot and will not work if the sanctioned country has enough mineral wealth.
without our current administrations brilliant planning it could be american factories in venezuela and ameroican ship yards building tankers and american oil companies pumping oil.
but the capturing of an alqueda leader wont slow the people down.
now even if we got bin laden himself it would change nothing.

Re: No. 2 al-Qaida leader in Iraq arrested by Iraqi forces

It is great news and congrads for the good guys.

I think even anti-iraq war people can acknoledge that the war has created a vacuum, and it has sucked all the old time Al Queda guys into it.

Now, the biggest threat to us is the homegrown radical muslims. Just like those in the UK.

Wait libs..back up...I thought al qeda was not in Iraq, based on...your news and veiws!8)

Re: No. 2 al-Qaida leader in Iraq arrested by Iraqi forces

Bondo you said:

"A Tactical Battle Plan moves the Battles to your oppenents fields,.....

The problem is Iraq is there was never a plan at all. We went in with not goals, no strategy, inadequate/false intelligence, no plan a or plan b, not removal plan,

Our only plan was for a few cowards and VN draft dodgers to play war and fulfill greed of their friends.

As for #2 Al Queda, thought we killed him a few weeks back, but I am still not willing to trade 2700 Americans soldiers for the deck of 52. There are better ways to handle them.

Sorry to add levity to this conversation but I could not resist 8)

The Iranian Ambassador to the UN had just finished
giving a speech, and walked out into the lobby where he met President Bush. They shook hands, and as they walked the Iranian Ambassador said:
"You know, I have just one question about what I have seen in America".
President Bush said, "Well, anything I can do to help you, I will." The Iranian whispered "My son watches this show 'Star Trek' and in it there is Chekhov who is Russian, Scotty who is Scottish, and Sulu who is Chinese, but no Arabs. My son is
very upset and doesn't understand why there aren't any Iranians on Star Trek."

President Bush laughed, leaned toward the Iranian ambassador, and whispered back, "It's because it takes place in the future."
