For those not familiar with Mullah Krekar, here's a bit of a synopsis of his life and geographical ties:

pwhce.org

Krekar is one of the founding members of Ansar Al Islam, the group which Abu Mu'sab Al Zarqawi found sanctuary with during the latter part of Saddam's regime.

Ansar Al Islam, some same split into Ansar Al Sunnah (while others claim they merely changed their name), is one of the primary Al Qai'da sub-groups operating in Iraq. A large number of Ansar Al Sunnah members, I opine, are former Iraqi Intelligence agents, Republican Guards, and Fidayin Saddam.

He's someone we DEFINITELY WANT.
