A Hellfire in his future?
According to Associated Press, terror commander of Hezbollah, Ali Mussa Daqduq, who the US considers a suspect in the killing of five US troops in Iraq, is about to freed by Iraqi courts after they rejected the US request for extradiction;
Washington believes the Lebanese-born Daqduq worked with Iranian agents to train Shiite militias to target the U.S. military during the years of sectarian violence that gripped Iraq over the last decade. His case has illustrated the tricky aftermath of the long U.S. military campaign in Iraq that ended last year and has elements of both Iraqi and U.S. internal politics.
Daqduq was detained for more than four years by the U.S. military before it left Iraq last December. He was handed over to Iraqi authorities as required when the troops left, and amid a debate between the Democratic White House and Republicans in Congress over whether high-risk terror suspects should be brought to the U.S. for trial.
Yeah, I guess we couldn’t have just tossed his ass into Guantanamo before we turned him over to the Iraqis which would have precluded this extradition talk.

A Hellfire in his future? One can only hope . . . .
Too bad they didn’t toss his ass in a shipping container and send him to Gitmo.
This is bullshit. We left Iraq as a corrupt and broken state and they want to stand on the rule of law and deny his extradition to the US? This is where a little slush fund to pay off the right people would have come in handy to insure their courts ruled in our favor.
But hey, if the want to release him I am sure there are some Sunni friends we can pay to see him floating face down in a Fallujah canal.
Just call him “sniper-bait.”
