The leader of al-Qaeda in Iraq, Abu Ayyub al-Masri, was killed on Tuesday in an internal fight between insurgents north of Baghdad, the Interior Ministry spokesman said.
Brigadier-General Abdul Kareem Khalaf told Reuters: "we have definite intelligence reports that al-Masri was killed today".
Another source in the ministry also said Masri had been killed. Khalaf said the battle happened near a bridge in the small town of al-Nibayi, north of Baghdad.
Both Khalaf and the other source in the ministry said the authorities did not have Masri's body.

The US military said it could not confirm the reports.
"I hope that it is true, but we want to be very careful to make sure," said Lieutenant-Colonel Christopher Garver, a spokesman for the US military in Iraq.
There has been increasing friction between Sunni Islamist al-Qaeda and other Sunni Arab insurgent groups, particularly over al-Qaeda's indiscriminate killing of civilians in Iraq.
Masri, who is also known as Abu Hamza al-Muhajir, assumed the leadership of al-Qaeda in Iraq after Jordanian militant Abu Musab al-Zarqawi was killed in a US air strike in June 2006.
US and Iraqi officials accuse al-Qaeda of trying to tip Iraq into full-scale civil war between Iraq's majority Shi'ites and minority Sunni Arabs with a campaign of spectacular car bombs attacks that have killed thousands.
Iraqi officials also blame al-Qaeda for destroying a holy Shi'ite shrine in Samarra a year ago, an act that unleashed a surge in sectarian bloodletting.
The US military commander in Iraq, General David Petraeus, said last week that al-Qaeda was now "probably public enemy number one" in Iraq.
Masri, an Egyptian, has been described by the US military as a former close Zarqawi associate who trained in Afghanistan and formed al-Qaeda's first cell in Baghdad. The United States has a $US5 million ($A6 million) bounty on Masri's head.

fewer the better, no ?

Alqaida denies this

but yeah, the fewer the better.

I really hope that it can be confirmed in the near future. As much as I want these terrorists gone from this planet, I still fear that the more terrorists are killed, the more angry and "motive" the terroists get.

Indeed, but this was an intern conflict between leaders I think, the more divided they get, better for us.

This is what I hate, Arabs from other countries coming to Irak and explode it, it is so damn irritating i just want to see how tough they are unarmed.

Glory to the world, al-Queda is on the verse of death.

in Al-quida's current state, they will soon be history. And for gods sake, let us hope so.

I dont know if you know but currently, are the death numbers of alqaida higher than kurds??

What I mean is, Alqaida are trying to bomb whatever they can in south kurdistan, but are we doing good against them??

to be honest, I need to research that more, never heard of any peshmerge attacking al-quida before, or Al-quida bombing Southern Kurdistan, But my opinion, is that we WOULD do better than them with help from U.S.

U.S will never get rid of them, historical facts can prove that, Sovjet, with the whole cavalery division, wasn't near in dividing taliban in the Afgan Wars, and since Al-quida is far more international and larger(?), Foreigners will have the same problem in defeating Al-quida. They need men like us, people who know the enemy, the regions where terrorism is spread, and who more easily can infiltrate the community, than ANY American could ever do.

But to answer your question, I do think there is killed far more alqaida's pr. day than at least Iraqi Kurds, not to mention their suicide bombers, and alqaida got several fronts to defend, afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq etc.

I will research this more now.

OK

I think I just mixed between al qaida and the baath party sorry, your right, alqaida hasnt bombed much on kurdish land, but the baath party has.

So my question was the same, although I meant baath, not alqaida. Sorry for confusing you !

no problem brother, kinda fun trying to find stuff about kurdish encounters with alqaida anyways

If you direct me to Baath, I think, we easily could say that we are owning the shit out of them, with Saddam, Baathism also died. Those Muslims who are former members is rather interested in killing other branches of Islam instead of being active Baathist I think, please correct me if I'm wrong.

Trying desperately to find new members among Kurds, hilarious xD

Looks like the only Kurds interested in Al-qaida is those who prior their faith before their motherland, No need to call them Kurds longer, with other words.

Yes basically you call them Arabs. Because that is what Al-Queda would be working towards if it should take out the Western Powers from the Middle-East.

Bin Ladin as an Arab would try to Arabify everything with the Baaths. They would create concentration camps like the Nazis and exterminate everyone that wasn't Arab, including those stupid enough to side with them in the first place.

indeed, something weird that they want us to join forces though, our cultural and historical roots have nothing to do with Arabs, Personally, I would like to believe its only because of more men to their army, nothing more.
