Iraq - 2 Zarqawi Aides Arrested

That's according to this report.

If true, I find this bit revealing:

A US army announcement confirmed that Mullah Kamel al-Assawadi, who is described as "one of the most wanted people in northern Iraq", was captured while trying to bribe his way past an Iraqi checkpoint in Balad town 70 km outside of Bagdat (Baghdad).


So now even bribes aren't working for the terrorists. Just another sign Iraqis have had enough of these terrorists and hopefully soon we'll get Zarqawi.

UPDATE

And another one. This one on Monday.

"The Iraqi security forces backed by US troops captured on Monday Agha Umar, a top aide for Zarqawi, in Baquba, some 60 km northeast of Baghdad," the official told Xinhua on condition of anonymity.


Closing in?
