Iraqi sources: Al Zarqawi arrested
Albawaba ^ | 3/6/05

Posted on 03/06/2005 1:49:47 PM PST by TexKat

Iraqi sources have told a Saudi newspaper that al-Qaeda's man in Iraq, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, has been arrested. Al Watan daily said Sunday that the official announcement on the arrest was delayed until a new Iraqi government is in place. The purported arrest supposedly took place on the Iraqi - Syrian border, the report added.

It should be mentioned that CNN aired on Saturday new pictures believed to show al-Zarqawi, who is America's most-wanted man in Iraq.

The Saudi paper said that the arrest of al-Zarqawi was completed ahead the recent visit of US Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld in Iraq. This visit took place early February.

Story #125,383 about Zarqawi being captured.

I'd like to see Bush call a press conference and have him bring in this jackass in with a ball-gag, show some video of Zarqawi committing some horrible crime, and then issue a statement that this is the kind of person Ted Kennedy thinks needs defending.

Then send Zarqawi up to Kennedy's compound on Martha's Vineyard for "safekeeping".

If Allawi needs the info to get out, to help him politically, then why not leak it? That way he keeps it secret for security reasons, but lets a rumor of it float. As for it not being a reason to keep it quiet - that they are waiting for a new government before announcing it - perhaps that is just a cover story for the real reason they are holding back.

Abu Musab al-Zarqawi gets picked up more often that the clap at a Kennedy picnic.

If this is true, which I doubt, I hope we have him somewhere with a leash around his neck and woman's panties on his head, waterboarding him for every crumb of intel in his wicked brain.
