The statement described the detained terrorist as dangerous and said he was nabbed in a search operation in the city, adding that he was responsible for bringing in terrorists secretly. Another statement confirmed that the allied troops handed over security mission in the town of Talaafar west of Mosul to the government Iraqi forces, last week. The city had witnessed a spate of terrorist attacks. |

| #4 Saddam displaced Kurds and moved in Baathist sunnis to control the oil there. The Kurds are moving back, but al Q and the Baathists, both, aren't giving up their stolen property and control without a fight. |

| #3 Mosul is full of Sunni hating Kurds. I am suprised that al-Qaeda has a presence there. |

| #1 What does it take to be a Qaeda chief? A flip of a coin? What is the ratio of chief to peons? Why doesn't Qaeda honor the English language law of "u" following Q? Were they trying to pervert the rules of Scrabble? |
