Senior Al Qaeda Leader Captured in Iraq

Special Iraqi Army forces, with coalition advisers, captured a terrorist leader during a raid Dec. 7 in Fallujah responsible for directing sniper, improvised explosive device and car bombing attacks against Iraqi security forces. He also participated in the abduction and execution of several Iraqi Police officers. The terrorist leader has also directed and participated in an extensive murder and
intimidation campaign and the harboring of other terrorist fighters. He is a senior al Qaeda in Iraq leader in the area and controls several insurgent groups operating in
the Al Anbar Province.

Minimal damage was done to the objective and there were no Iraqi civilian or
coalition forces casualties.

1 I find it telling that all of these stories end with "Minimal damage was done to the objective and there were no Iraqi civilian or coalition forces casualties."
 
You do not hear about these stories in the MSM unless there WERE civilian or coalition casualties.

Didn't she say that AQ wasn't in Iraq as recently as this week?

5 The only war America is losing is the war of public opinion.
