It's Getting Lonely At the Top

It's getting lonely for the top terrorist in Iraq because his underlings keep getting killed or captured:

A man believed to be al Qaeda's No. 2 operative in Iraq has been killed, a U.S. Defense Department official confirmed to CNN.

Abu Azzam was a "significant" figure in the al Qaeda network in Iraq, the official said.

Those who aren't currently partying with Allah are finding new homes in U.S. military prisons:

Just last week, U.S. and Iraqi officials announced that two men described as top al Qaeda leaders in the northern city of Mosul were captured during a September 5 raid.

One of those captured in that raid was said to be responsible for supervising and directing the day-to-day operations of the group, and was responsible for numerous attacks against Iraqi security and coalition forces. Officials hailed the capture as a blow to al Qaeda's operation in northern Iraq.

Of course, we can never forget that we're losing this war, according to the leftist wackos that invaded Washington D.C. last weekend. I'm sure that will provide some level of comfort for the dead and captured terrorists.
