The shadowy leader of the Islamic State of Iraq was captured Friday in a raid on the western outskirts of Baghdad. Abu Omar al-Baghdadi, the insurgent leader was arrested along with several others in a raid in the town of Abu Ghraib. Al-Baghdadi admitted his identity and so did another “of the terrorists” who confirmed “that the one in our hands is al-Baghdadi, said the spokesman for the Baghdad security operation Qassim al-Moussawi.
This would be a victory for the U.S. military as one more insurgent leader is captured. But surly there are still many work to be done. As one of the leaders goes down, another will soon rise up. Can they all be captured before they can do any harm? Or is there a way of prevent the rise of the next insurgent leader? How many more of them must be capture in order to put an end to it?
