AL QAEDA MURDERS OUR ANBAR ALLY


BBC:
A key Sunni ally of the US and Iraqi governments has been killed in a bomb attack in the Iraqi city of Ramadi.

Abdul Sattar Abu Risha, 37, led what was known as the "Anbar Awakening", an alliance of Sunni Arab tribes that rose up against al-Qaeda in Iraq.

US President George Bush met and endorsed the sheikh last week in Iraq. The White House, which has held up the movement in Anbar province as an example for the rest of Iraq, condemned his assassination as "an outrage".

... Abu Risha was killed, along with two bodyguards, by a roadside bomb planted near his home in Ramadi, the capital of Iraq's western Anbar province.
"The sheikh's car was totally destroyed by the explosion," Ramadi police officer Ahmed Mahmoud al-Alwani told Reuters.

It has been reported that he was the number one target of al-Qaeda in Iraq, that several attempts had previously been made on his life, and that his father and at least one of his brothers were killed by insurgents.


Several top sheikhs in the same movement were killed in a bomb attack in Baghdad in June.

  • OUR ENEMY - THE JIHADIST SCUM WHO MURDERED THIS SHEIKH - HAVE MURDERED MORE MUSLIMS THAN "CRUSADER ZIONISTS."
  • THE DEMOCRAT PARTY TALK OF RETREAT EMPOWERS THE JIHADISTS WHO DID THIS BY GIVING THEM HOPE.
  • I'D LIKE TO SEE THE MOVEON MOORE-SHEEHAN-DE PLAMA-OBAMA CROWD CONDEMN THEM AND JOIN IN OUR EFFORTS TO DEFEAT THEM - EVERYWHERE. INCLUDING IRAQ.
  • THE SOONER THEY DO, THE SOONER WE WIN.
COMPLETE ROUND UP AT MEMEORANDUM.
