Toe tag for al-Qaeda leader in Ramadi |
2005-10-20 |
US forces killed 12 militants in western Iraq including an al-Qaeda leader responsible for attacks around Ramadi, a focus of the Sunni Arab insurgency, the US military said overnight. A statement said Sa'ad Ali Firas Muntar al-Dulaimi, also known as Abu Abdullah, was among 12 people killed in a series of October 15 raids on suspected insurgents in Ramadi, about 110km west of Baghdad. The statement said Dulaimi was "highly regarded" by top al-Qaeda leaders in Iraq including the group's chief, Jordanian Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. "(Dulaimi) was chiefly responsible for planning and executing all terrorist attacks on Iraqi and coalition forces in the Ramadi and Falluja areas," the statement said. |

#3 I think Ramadi will be difficult to bring under full control even with this welcome success. Ramadi has a huge population, numerous criminal and terrorist gangs and many pro-Saddam and pro terrorism elements in the population. It will take a big deployment of well trained Iraqis to hold it. |
