US: Top al-Qaida in Iraq Figure Captured
The U.S. command said Wednesday the highest-ranking Iraqi in the leadership of al-Qaida in Iraq has been arrested, adding that information from him indicates the group's foreign-based leadership wields considerable influence over the Iraqi chapter.
Khaled Abdul-Fattah Dawoud Mahmoud al-Mashhadani, also known as Abu Shahid, was captured in Mosul on July 4, said Brig. Gen. Kevin Bergner, a military spokesman.
Hear that sound, Harry Ried? It's the sound of your political fortunes going down the tubes when, despite your best efforts, our soldiers succeed in Iraq!
