ALERT: AL MASRI IN CUSTODY Democrats See This As A Failure
Al-Masri reportedly hurt, in custody; aide slain in skirmish north of Baghdad :
The leader of al-Qaida in Iraq was wounded and an aide was killed in a clash Thursday with Iraqi forces north of Baghdad, the Interior Ministry spokesman said.The clash occurred near Balad, a major U.S. base about 50 miles north of the capital, Brig. Gen Abdul-Karim Khalaf said.
Khalaf said al-Qaida in Iraq leader Abu Ayyub al-Masri was wounded and his aide, identified as Abu Abdullah al-Majemaai, was killed. Sources tell NBC News that al-Masri is in custody.
Ace:
Just curious: If fighting terrorists only makes more terrorists, should we just patch Al-Masri up and send him on his merry way?
Less terrorists if we do that, right?
Hot Air has more
The initial report of al-Masri’s wounding has yet to be confirmed, and should be accepted with caution. The U.S. military has refused to comment of the incident. During the hunt for Zarqawi, there were numerous reports of close calls until he was finally bagged in Baqubah in June of 2006.
Meanwhile, Pelosi tries stretching her authority. Maybe Bush will break the news to her while she’s in midflight somewhere.

Perhaps Al Masri can be brought to the U.S. and enter the 2008 campaign as a Democrite contender? The Democrites already have a two-faced, lying shrew, a plagiarist, a manipulator who made millions suing others, and a muslim. Having a genuine enemy of America in their lineup would really give them gravitas.

A quick way to change the minds of these Defeatocrats is to strip EXTRA protection from them. Tell them they have no right to any more protection than the average US citizen within the US. I’m sure you’ll see the borders closed and Iran and Syria put on quick notice that when it come to their lilly white hides, Iran and Syria can disappear under nuclear clouds before one of them is treatened.
