Paul Bremer opens with three words...
"WE GOT HIM"

Scary thought - I agree with Rush no way will a "democratic" Iraq emerge within a year. Look how long it took the Axis powers after WWII with our help. We're stuck in Iraq for a long time, even with Saddam's capture. Has drug traffic stopped after Nireaga's (sp) capture?

Great news indeed, now we need to find the other SOB. Now let the proper rebuilding begin.

Ah - Rush is a druggie, don't listen to him
Someone will get the reward though! CNN reports that the capture was based on specific information provided as to his whereabouts - someone has a big payday coming! I guess in the end $$$$ talks! A great day indeed. The process, slow as it is, must now continue.

Good news!
I'm sure there's lots of people in Iraq asking "Now what?".

Give him to the families of all the folks he executed.

Very good news indeed. I will be for sure once the dna comes back pos. I thought we had him several times before.
But this is at least extremely positive.

That would be an awful lot of people...100s of thousands probably.
God Bless America and her troops. Another feather in Bushs cap!

Who believes that the 4th Infantry Division caught the guy?
The main phrase to center your thoughts on were "Elements of the 4th ID and Task Force 121..."
Hmmm....I don't think a bunch of tankers and mechanized infantrymen captured my man, their intell guys aren't that good. Maybe they performed the outter cordon of the area with all their big guns while a group of men ran in there and swooped on my bearded man.
Whatever the case, he's caught, but we'll be there for a long while.
