the beat goes on - Zarqawi's Replacement Named...

[bridgit]

'(AP) BAGHDAD Al Qaeda in Iraq announced in a Web statement posted Monday that a militant named Abu Hamza al-Muhajer was appointed the group's new leader to succeed the slain Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.

His real name was not immediately known. The name al-Muhajer, Arabic for "immigrant," suggested he was not Iraqi.

"Al Qaeda in Iraq's council has agreed on Sheik Abu Hamza al-Muhajer to be the successor for Abu Musab al-Zarqawi in the leadership of the organization," said a statement signed by the group on an Islamic militant Web forum where it often posts messages.' http://cbs4.com/topstories/topstories_story_163112537.html

13. Good question.

Since when did al Qaeda become some concrete organization that makes press releases and the like? I thought it was just a term loosely used to categorize terrorists.
