The top al Qaeda leader in Iraq has been captured, again and again and again

Is it just me, or have they announced the capture of the "top" guy every six months or so?

And notice in the article how the US military is trying to convince everyone that al Qaeda in Iraq is really controlled by Osama. News flash: al Qaeda wasn't even a significant presence in Iraq until Bush invaded. So spare us the "Osama is coming" propaganda. We're to believe that you're going to protect us when you're the reason he's there in the first place?

Total, utter, disaster.
