U.S. Forces: Number 8 on Iraq Wanted List in Custody

Ladies and gentlemen: The US Army presents the King of Diamonds! From WaPo:

The U.S. military said Thursday that its forces had captured a former regional commander in Saddam Hussein's Baath Party who is on Washington's list of most-wanted Iraqis.

The U.S. Central Command said in a statement that Aziz Salih Numan was a Baath Party regional command chairman responsible for west Baghdad. He was also a former governor of the southern cities of Karbala and Najaf.
