FBI puts Zarqawi high on its list: Al Qaeda leader wanted for questioning

[ECH1969]

Abu Musab al-Zarqawi was placed on the list Thursday, and the U.S. State Department is offering a reward of up to $25 million for information leading directly to the Jordanian native's arrest or conviction.

"Al-Zarqawi is sought in connection with numerous terrorist attacks and continuing terrorist threats in Iraq," the FBI states on its Web site. "Al-Zarqawi has been convicted in absentia in Jordan for his role in the murder of a United States diplomat and for a bombing attack on the Jordanian Embassy in Baghdad, Iraq."

The FBI's "Most Wanted Terrorist" list of indicted terrorism suspects also was tweaked Thursday to include another six fugitives, bringing the total to 26.

The changes came a day after the FBI added to the list three terrorism suspects who escaped from a prison in Yemen earlier this month.

The FBI seems just a tad slow.

Looks like all they know is that they want a man of middle-eastern extraction. If that's the best they can do after this long, it doesn't give me much belief in his actual existence except as a diversion for BFEE...

3. "Did we mention we use him as cover for the civil war that going on?"

"that way it's looks like this whole thing isn't an inside job, pretty smart huh, hmm?"

4. Whitey wants a recount!

5. Big Bad Boogey-Man....

he's probably under my bed....or in the closet...

[Disturbed]

6. "Al-Zarqawi has been convicted in absentia in Jordan."

Seems that he had a lousy Defense Attorney.

11. So was Ahmed Chalabi, no?

:rofl:

[DoYouEverWonder]

12. No, Jordon dropped the charges

against Chalabi last year.

8. He may have left a leg in your closet. And even one under the bed!

The rest of him?

Probably in a lab somewhere, growing even more extremities for future pseudo 'kills' by us.
I mean, we kill the guy every other week. (Or so 'they' say.) Wink, wink, nudge, nudge.

He really should get a job with the circus.

7. Gee. Too bad for them he's been killed five times.

I doubt they'll get much from him... :rofl:

[HuffleClaw]

9. ? what nonsense is this ?

NOW they do this? hey, they are only a few YEARS too late.

10. What crime has Zarqawi committed that junior hasn't?

[DoYouEverWonder]

13. The Amazing Zarqawi?

The one and only, multiple injuries, limping around the Middle East, Zarqawi?

I hear he's shacking up with Usama bin Forgotten down in Dubai.

14. Too Funny. Wonder if they want the dead one or the live one?

The one-legged one or the two-legged one? What CRAP.
