Iraq-Jordan
1ST INFANTRY DIVISION DETAIN THREE SUSPECTS
2004-09-08
TIKRIT, Iraq -- 1st Infantry Division Soldiers from 1st Squadron, 4th Cavalry Regiment conducted two cordon and searches to capture or kill known Al-Duri enablers and Anti-Iraqi Forces members on Sept. 8. During the first cordon and search near Ad Dwar at about 2:15 a.m., the Soldiers detained Mahmoud Al-Duri and Ahmad Shihab Ahmad Al-Duri.
Guess anyone named Al-Duri is on the list of Al-Duri enablers.
During the second cordon and search near Ad Duluiyah at about 2:30 a.m., the Soldiers detained Sabiah Saleh Quaddori Al Khazraji who attacked Coalition Forces on July 21. The detainees were taken to Coalition detention facilities for further questioning.

#5  The way they intermarry within a tribe, I'm surprised that there is enough difference in DNA to make an accurate identification.

#4  t w : Remember they thought they had al-Douri, but the DNA (and red hair) only suggesated a "relative". Perhaps a brother-cousin or something of the sort.

#3  Big Ed,

That's why Saudi Arabia has so many problem children in the younger generation: significant levels of mental retardation, physical handicaps, and an interesting selection of insanities. And yet, they marry the kids off anyway, which will make the next generation's problems even worse.

#2  And they intermarry so much that they put the rural south stories in this country to shame.

Did anyone look at Saddams family tree? So many 1st cousins marrying. . . You know recessive genes that carry inherited disease is rife!
