January Surprise?

The Middle East is abuzz with rumors that terror chief Abu Musab al-Zarqawi is in custody, reports the Jerusalem Post Online Edition.
"I wouldn't like to comment for the time being," Interior Minister Falah al-Naqib said when asked about rumors that Abu Musab al-Zarqawi had been arrested. "Let's see. Maybe in the next few days we will make a comment about it."
Oh, like maybe a few days before the elections?

Nothing like a "no comment" from government officials to prompt thought that an event has taken place.

This will be an interesting one to watch unfold over the next week or so.
