#1 I'm looking for work right now. I'll let you all know if I see that "Assistant Regional Manager" role for Al Queda in Iraq pop back up in Monster.com. It seems they just took the ad down about a month ago. That job must suck. The customers hate you, the boss is always hanging you out to dry and the competition is literally killing you. I guess he took it for the black eyed bennies.

#2 DEBKAfile: September 27, 2005: The Abu Azzam reported killed in Baghdad is not Zarqawiâs most notorious senior lieutenant. DEBKAfileâs counter-terror sources strongly doubt that the man reported dead is in fact the Abu Azzam believed in charge of financing and arranging the movement of foreign fighters into western Iraq from Syria and other countries. His death has in fact not been officially announced.

Funny, it looks official to me.

On March 19, coalition forces announced his capture in Baghdad. it was reported in DEBKA-Net-Weekly in the same week. He was then commanding Abu Musab al Zarqawiâs forces in the capital. Since then, according to our information, he has been held and interrogated by US forces.

Hummm, witness protection program, "crossfire" or DEBKA not knowing what they are talking about?

#3 Interesting comment, Steve. Since he was was reportedly in control of financing foreign fighters coming into Iraq I was just about to comment what a shame it is that they didn't get him alive. Here's hoping that they did.
