Big news, Ansar al Sunnah is one of the most active Jihadi groups in Iraq. Odd that he is a Saudi, I thought I had read that Ansar al Sunnah was lead by an Iraqi. Iraqi security Saturday arrested the head of the al-Qaida affiliated Ansar al-Sunna, leader Hilal Hussein al-Badrani, authorities said. A security source said al-Badrani, a Saudi national, was captured Saturday near the town of al-Shurqat outside the northern city of Mosul. He was in possession of weapons, rocket-propelled grenades and ammunition. The man is suspected of being a senior al-Qaida member in Iraq and heads an armed group called Ansar al-Sunna (Supporters of Sunnis). In a related incident, the U.S. military in Iraq said troops arrested ten gunmen suspected of launching rocket attacks on the northern oil-rich city of Kirkuk.
