Looks like two top terrorists are now in custody. From Charles at LGF:
Big Al Qaeda Fish Hooked in Iraq
The replacement for Abu Musab al-Zarqawi: Insurgent leader nabbed in Iraq raid.
The leader of the al-Qaida-affiliated Islamic State of Iraq was captured Friday in a raid west of Baghdad — his identity revealed by a fellow insurgent detained with him, an Iraqi military spokesman said.

Abu Omar al-Baghdadi was captured in a raid in Abu Ghraib on the western outskirts of Baghdad, said Brig. Gen. Qassim al-Moussawi, spokesman of the Baghdad security operation. U.S. officials had no confirmation of the capture. “One of the terrorists who was arrested with him confessed that the one in our hands is al-Baghdadi,” al-Moussawi said.

Kenyan police arrest key Al Qaeda suspect
He is tied to '02 attacks in Mombasa

The Kenyan police have arrested a man they believe to be a key Al Qaeda suspect who tried to shoot down an Israeli airliner and helped plan the simultaneous bombing of a hotel in 2002 that killed 15 people, officials said.

The man's identity was not immediately confirmed, but investigators said they believe he is Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan, a senior official in Kenya's security services told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the matter was classified.

Nabhan is wanted for questioning by the FBI and the Kenyan police for the 2002 attacks and the 1998 bombings of the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, which killed more than 200 people. Nabhan fled to Somalia after the attacks near Mombasa. Last year the U.S. assistant secretary of state for African affairs, Jendayi Frazer, accused Islamic radicals in Somalia of sheltering him and demanded they hand him over.
Good job -- two less of the scum floating around and who knows how much these two will talk once a few carrots are dangled in front of them... Posted by DaveH at March 9, 2007 5:01 PM
