A half-brother and former adviser to Saddam Hussein has been captured in Iraq, according to sources in the interim government.
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 Sunday.
Several months ago the interim government said Ibrahim was one of at least two former Baath Party officials directing the anti-American insurgency from Syria.
With this really important capture that leaves only about ten on our 55 Most Wanted List.
I am happy about the capture. I have my deck all sorted out!
