Abu Ayyub al Masri, al Qaeda in Iraq’s leader, reported captured in Mosul

More horrible news for the Leftists and Media. Just think of all the information that must have been captured with this terrorist scumbag! Soon dozens or hundreds of terrorists might be in jail or dead. Who will the Left be able to honor and support over there? Who will the Media call for reports of American Atrocities?

Abu Ayyub al Masri, al Qaeda in Iraq’s leader, reported captured in Mosul - The Long War Journal: "The Iraqi military claimed Abu Ayyub al Masri, al Qaeda in Iraq’s leader, has been captured in the northern city of Mosul in Ninewa province. The US military has not confirmed the report of al Masri’s capture. Al Masri's capture would provide a potential intelligence boon on al Qaeda's network in Iraq and its connections to the international organization.

Defense Ministry spokesman Mohammed al Askari said al Masri’s capture was “confirmed to him by the Iraqi commander of the province,” The Associated Press reported. The person believed to be al Masri has been transferred to US custody for identification, according to Askari. Al Masri’s capture was also announced on Iraqiya Television, the state-run TV network, AP reported.

The Iraqi government has a history of announcing the capture of senior al Qaeda leaders, only to have to retract the statements. The Iraqi government had made several claims of wounding, killing and capturing both al Masri and Abu Omar al Baghdadi, the fictitious leader of al Qaeda’s Islamic State of Iraq, several times during 2007. The reports turned out to be false or cases of mistaken identity."
