BAGHDAD, May 19 — An American Special Operations unit has killed a Shiite militant suspected of organizing a sophisticated attack on a government compound in January that left five American soldiers dead, several senior military officers said Friday.
The suspect, Sheikh Azhar al-Duleimi, was killed in a firefight after American troops raided a house in northern Baghdad on Thursday night, the officers said, in speaking in separate interviews. The raid was prompted by intelligence that Mr. Duleimi had recently returned from Iran, they said, where he had fled after the January killings.

Leave no stone unturned. Hunt them down and put them down hard...and use Black Jack Pershing’s method for ensuring that they don’t even get the luxury of thinking for a minute that there perverted, twisted Jihad mentality is going to award them with anything but a burn in hell.
