Bombing kills Iraqi terrorism officer
BAGHDAD — He compared al-Qaida in Iraq to wolves, urging that the terrorist group be crushed since he believed its members would never reject violence. But the wolves got to the Iraqi counterterrorism officer first.
Ahmed Subhi al-Fahal’s death in a suicide bombing in Tikrit could embolden al-Qaida loyalists to try to make a return to the area around Saddam Hussein’s hometown where he held sway. On Friday, within hours of his killing, dozens of Web sites affiliated with al-Qaida in Iraq were already celebrating the death of their nemesis. The attack also stood as a reminder that Iraqi security officials who work closely with American forces remain a target for insurgents even as overall violence in Iraq fades. Thursday’s bombing, outside a goldsmith’s store, also killed two of al-Fahal’s bodyguards and two bystanders in Tikrit.
