#2 Security forces just happen to capture aide after aide after aide?

Zarqawi is in a very remote room with car battery cables on his nuts and several pairs of pliers, dental drills, and other persausive devices at hand. He's singing like a freaking canary.

#3 Security forces just happen to capture aide after aide after aide?

Perhaps they cracked the courier network who ran messages between the aides?

#5 The Iraqi cabinet allocated today one million dollar for anyone who provides the authorities with information that lead to arrest of Muhammad Yunus Al-Ahmad who is suspected for supporting terrorist attacks against the Iraqi people and authorities.

The cabinet added in a statement that officials of the Iraqi government expect Al-Ahmad to be in Syria.


This is probably the most important part of the story. The Iraqi govt, after the election, is now insisting it legitimately speaks for Iraq and her people. And that means Syria is On the Other Side, so long as it keeps enabling the terror / insurgent network.

Try though they may to avoid it, the Gulf states are going to have to accept actions by the government of Iraq to protect the country and her people. Notice has been given and the Iraqi government has the help of the Coalition behind it, if it should ask for that help.

As, no doubt, it will.

I really, really hope it's the Iraqis that bring Zarqawi in rather than US troops. Or better yet, a combined op.

#6 I wonder if the Iraqis will have Z-man make a tape after the interrogations are completed. Sort of a Lessons Learned for future terrs.

#8 ...officials of the Iraqi government expect Al-Ahmad to be in Syria.

The next meeting of the Org of Arab States should be a real hoot.

#9 They've got the Z-Man, and they're threatening him with a Madeleine Albright lap dance. That, and of course the panties.
