No, the Keltoi are the Celts. They settled in Anatolia and mingled/migrated throughout the area due to wars and dispersement.

The Franks were the Crusaders and many were Celtic.

The Iraqis of today have an inordinate number of people with missing limbs, much like Viet Nam, due to the long years of war. Also, Saddam used to torture people so badly that they lost limbs as a result. It is reported that one armed and one-legged people are not that uncommon and this predates the US crusade.

Even if up to 4% of Iraqis have lost limbs, it still narrows down the hunt and eliminates at least 96% of the population, and probably much more. Certainly many of the other amuptees have lost arms, or the opposite leg. Unless he's not even in Iraq anymore, it's just unbelievable that Zarqawi hasn't been found yet.

Too bad David Jansen wasn't alive, he could give valuable info to our intelligence guys on how an amputee stays one step ahead of the law.
