Corporate media will never cover Election Fraud Jan 6 now
Abu Musab al-Zarqawi reportedly arrested in Iraq


DUBAI, January 4 (Itar-Tass) - Abu Mus'ab al-Zarqawi, whom the US occupation authorities declared to be the "target number one" in Iraq, has been arrested in the city of Baakuba, the Emirate newspaper al-Bayane reported on Tuesday referring to Kurdish sources. Al-Zarqawi, leader of the terrorist group Al-Tawhid Wa'al-Jihad, was recently appointed the director of the Al-Qaeda organisation in Iraq.

The newspaper's correspondent in Baghdad points out that a report on the seizure of the terrorist, on whom the US put a bounty of 10 million dollars, was also reported by Iraqi Kurdistan radio, which at one time had been the first to announce the arrest of Saddam Hussein.

There have been no official reports about the arrest of the terrorist. Al-Zarqawi, 38, a Jordanian, whose real name is Ahmad al-Khalayleh, aims to turn Iraq into a "new Afghanistan". According to Arab press data, Al-Tawhid Wa'al-Jihad group has divided Iraq into several emirates. The group's independent subdivisions at a strength of 50 to 500 militants operate in the cities of Al-Falluja, Al-Qaim, Diala, and Samarra.

15. The story is about election fraud, which the original poster said
would not be covered because of the al-Zarqawi story.

2. So far, nothing on Yahoo
If the arrest took place, it will be interesting to note when it is announced.

4. Guess the MSM has a little trouble multi-tasking
They'll freak out when they also have to cover the Gonzalez crap, too!

Thank God for the internet!

6. I Doubt The Validity Of This Story
I do not think they have caught anybody of significance since 9/11, and now would not be an exception. All the Al Qaeda leaders are still on the loose.

16. Lapdogs ARE covering Election Fraud--and BushCon talking points...
Ohio Election Fraud articles today:

AP article at MSNBC (see my analysis of the BushCon talking points)

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=203x231403

AP article in Ohio Beacon Journal

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=203x229002

____________

How can you arrest someone who does not exist?

----------

Anyway, it's Tass (Russian news service). Skepticism warranted.

---------

On the other hand, that's the best kind of arrest. They can invent all kinds of details, and who would know? (I love how they accuse US of "poorly written scripts"! --in the first AP article. They have a virtual presidency, right out of "Matrix.")

17. Maybe this will distract them, maybe not
If they're really determined to not cover it, the MSM doesn't even need a story this big.

Just a gossipy murder case, a bit of celebrity "news," or, god forbid, Janet Jackson's breast could dominate the news cycle for weeks.

No reason to throw in the towel before things get started, though.

International press may cover it. The MSM may be shamed into covering it. And we may even be pleasantly surprised by the MSM.

18. this story was posted two days ago on DU (from another ME sourse)--so
far it has not hit the American press. Maybe bush is waiting to tow him out at an 'opportune" time.
