Sabawi Ibrahim al-Hasan al-Tikriti was number 36 on the U.S. military's list of the 55 most wanted people in Iraq. No other details were provided. An official announcement would be made soon, the sources said on Saturday. "Sabawi is captured, he's a big catch," one official in the government said. |

Sorry, I did a searh on the article title.
Uh, oh. Babwa Boxer will be upset and Diane Sawyer will worry that the poor guy is in a cold hard cell being mistreated.......
Is it my imagination or is the number of terrorist leaders being captured accellerating since the elections?
I'm pretty sure it's not my imagination.
US deaths are down since then, too.
Mr. Fez?
Doesn't it seem like they've captured a couple of dozen "half-brothers" of Saddam Hussein since the war began?
Wolfie just reported via AP that Syria captured him in NE Syria and turned him over to Iraq as a 'good will gesture'
How much you want to bet the others of the 55 that have not been captured are in Syria. And, that Syria only did this to get Iraq and the US and others off their backs (for a little while). I'm sure they knew where he was all along and just waiting until they needed a get out of jail free card. They better know this doesn't change much for them from the US POV.
Separated at birth?
I read on one of the Iraqi blogs that Allawi gave them a list of people who were there in Syria, a list of Syrian officers who had been taking bribes including the amounts and who paid them. He said he would start televising the confessions of the Syrian intelligence officers if they didn't cooperate. The Syrians called his bluff......only he wasn't bluffing. The next day, Al Iraqia started televising Syrian intelligence officers confessing. :o)
Allawi is a tough guy.
Maybe after we have constituted Iraq's army, that army can attack Syria in retaliation for its attacks inside Iraq.

Send his head wrapped in todays news paper.
Even the NYT doesn't deserve to be used for this purpose. Where would you send his head anyway?
Better to let the new Iraqi police recruits use him for target practice. It might take them a while to finish him off, but eventually they might find the mark.
Good point!
That's not as coincidental as you might think -- Freddie Mercury, formerly Farook Bulsara, was Persian.
