#2 According to Time magazine, there were three Abu X's, all of them "unidentified". Hmmm...

#3 Okay, to recap. We killed #1, #2, #3, maybe #4 and we're pretty sure of #5-13, excepting numbers eight and nine, which may be either the new #2 and #3 or possibly aren't even in the country right now, or we might have killed a while back since we haven't heard anything out of them for six months. We also took out their information guy, their messenger guy, the guy who shoots their videos, their local grocer delivery boy who was in the wrong place at the very wrong time, and their drug dealer and his girlfriend. And also some guy called "Bob", and we don't have a clue who he is, except we thought we had killed him a good dozen times in the past, but he keeps popping up.

#4  Guess this means they'll have to do a search to find a new leader. Perhaps they can call in a consulting company.

Like al-Qaeda doesn't have enough headhunters?

#5 The al Masri Brigades took credit for previous terrorist attacks, some of which aren't widely known as such. Is Abu al-Masri connected to this previously unknown group? If so, that would connect Zarqawi and Al Q with previous European and American explosions. Regardless, this sweep is more exciting than catching Saddam!

#6 al masri is arabic for "the Egyptian" so its a pretty common name.

John Murtha is probably going over the resumes now to see whom he can "work" with....
