Interesting development. I don't pity him. Still, it will be interesting to see what he will be charged for.

As for insurgency, it will be a blow against it for sure. But, IMO, it will not stop. A new leader will emerge, just as it was in Chechnya.

I guess this means he wasn't disguised as a woman... at least I hope so.

From MSNBC...

Quote

Earlier in the day, rumors of the capture sent people streaming into the streets of Kirkuk, a northern Iraqi city, firing guns in the air in celebration.

"We are celebrating like it's a wedding," said Kirkuk resident Mustapha Sheriff. "We are finally rid of that criminal."

"This is the joy of a lifetime," said Ali Al-Bashiri, another resident. "I am speaking on behalf of all the people that suffered under his rule."
