#1 Hmmm...no mention of US casaulties. These 70:0 kill ratios are something I can live with.

#2 That ratio is a tough one mathematically, approaching infinity, but I will do my darndest to understand it philosophically.

#3 Maybe this means that al-Douri doesn't have any support from whatever foreign groups are supporting the groups in Fallujah and in Najaf.

This might indicate a useful way of getting him to cooperate: he's dying, and does he want his dying acts to be helping the people who spurned him and would divide Iraq into Syrian and Iranian spheres?

#4 His daughter was briefly married to Saddamâs elder son Uday

The marriage was annulled because...? One party came up a head short?

#5 Phil - Back around the time of the festivities in Fallujah, right afterwards I believe - so about May-June, Al Douri swore allegiance to Al Zarqawi - or so it was reported in a story which was posted here on RB.
