The operative, reported to have been killed on June 24, was identified 
as the Al Qaida commander in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul, Abu Khalaf.<P>
    The U.S. military officials said Abu Khalaf was killed when he was 
reaching for his pistol. His deputy, who was carrying more than $100,000, 
was captured.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.worldtribune.com/worldtribune/WTARC/2008/me_terror0287_06_30.asp">
"Abu Khalaf previously had been a deputy and Mosul military commander
for a close associate of former Al Qaida in Iraq leader Abu Mussib Al
Zarqawi, who was killed in a June 2006 coalition bombing raid," the U.S.
military said. "He rose through the ranks to become the terror
organization's overall chieftan in Mosul."<P>
    "With the declining morale [among Al Qaida in Iraq operatives] and
paranoia within their ranks, Abu Khalaf's death and loss of funds will
severely impact their terrorist operations," Lt. David Russell, a
Multinational Force-Iraq spokesman, said on June 27.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/7D4B5652-9B7B-4ABE-88D5-79368CAB3A2C/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
