Iraqis Arrest Al Qaeda Financier

More good news out of Iraq.

Iraqi forces have arrested an Iraqi-born Palestinian suspected of acting as a financier for the Al-Qaeda militant network, military spokesman Brigadier General Qassim Mussawi said Sunday.

Mussawi said Mahmud Hamed Kamal al-Mathi -- also known as "Abu Qutada the Palestinian" -- was seized by commandos from the Iraqi Army's 4th Brigade on Saturday in Bab al-Moadham, a district of central Baghdad.

In a video of the suspect's interrogation shown to reporters, the 24-year-old bearded militant confirms his arrest and admits he received money from outside Iraq to fund insurgent attacks.

Of course, AFP continues with the word games, referring to the most vicious terrorists on the planet as militants.
