NBC NEWS SOURCES: AL MASRI IN CUSTODY

Niiiiiice.

The leader of al-Qaida in Iraq was wounded and an aide was killed in a clash Thursday with Iraqi forces north of Baghdad, the Interior Ministry spokesman said.
The clash occurred near Balad, a major U.S. base about 50 miles north of the capital, Brig. Gen Abdul-Karim Khalaf said.

Khalaf said al-Qaida in Iraq leader Abu Ayyub al-Masri was wounded and his aide, identified as Abu Abdullah al-Majemaai, was killed. Sources tell NBC News that al-Masri is in custody.

Via Hot Air.

Whatever happens, I hope that he's not subjected to any harsh treatment or physical discomfort. Because that's just what he wants.

Wounded, huh? We got any Nazi Kommandants around?

3:50 in the clip.

Just curious: If fighting terrorists only makes more terrorists, should we just patch Al-Masri up and send him on his merry way?

Less terrorists if we do that, right?
