#1 Sounds like we are getting some high quality intel if we were able to locate these guys.

#2 Turn him over to the Iraqis--the new DOJ torture memo doesn't cover them.

#5 We should not have released the news this shithead was captured. Al - Qaeda dogs seem to be able to hide pretty damn good. Im sure Zarqawi has plans for when those closest to him are detained.

#6 Two possibilities:
1) He was captured some time ago, and his usefullness in providing actionable intel is over.
2) He was captured in such a state that it would be unreasonable to expect to obtain actionable intel (dead or brain-dead - or is that redundant?) and so by announcing his 'capture' one hopes to cause his superiors to self-destroy some channels we don't and won't know about.

#7 I like the idea of cutting his sphincter muscles and letting him go.
