I spent two years in Iraq.

The chief of the Gestapo, Heinrich Müller, hired to work for the CIA by the chief of the Switzerland chapter of that organization in Bern in 1948, said otherwise [3, p.256].
Müller knew Harold (Kim) Philby before World War II and he renewed their contacts when Philby was sent to Washington as a British intelligence officer to cooperate with the FBI and CIA [3, p. 112-113]. In his journal, under the date of January 8, 1950, Heinrich Müller noted the conversation he had with Philby regarding what happened on Gibraltar on July 4, 1943.

In 1963, Philby was revealed as a member of the spy ring known as the Cambridge Five, along with Donald Maclean, Guy Burgess, Anthony Blunt and John Cairncross. Of the five, Philby is believed to have done the most damage to British and American intelligence, providing classified information to the Soviet Union that caused the deaths of scores of agents.

Answer 1

we're too busy in Iraq's civil war to look for terrorists

Answer 2

When we capture the #1 guy, the #2 guy then becomes the #1 guy and it has little effect on their operations. It may also do more harm than good. What if the #2 guy that now becomes the #1 guy is more interested in attacking the U.S. then being in Iraq?

Answer 3

Probably because they're either laying low and enjoying anonymity, or because they've left the country with the millions of dollars they embezzled in their years of power.

Do you think our troops could even identify these guys? They all look like a parody of Saddam (or Borat), with their bushy mustashes and heavy eyebrows. Unless someone rats them out, they're not going to get caught.

Answer 4

The Army was going for a full house.

Answer 5

Gen. Heinrich Mueller - Head of Gestapo has never been found either. It took them 15 years to track down Eichmann. This stuff take time.

Answer 6

No.
For one reason, the Democrat Party is supporting these Terrorists. Democrats are wanting campaign money for the 2008 Election.
That's why Pelosi went to Syria.

I'm more concerned about the Home-Grown Terrorists, who are much more dangerous:
Hillary.
Osama Obama Hussein, the Muslim.
Little Johnny Edwards, with the $1,250 haircuts.
Pelosi.
Reid.
Kennedy.
Shummer.
Boxer.
Feinstein.
on & on.....Home-Grown Terrorists.

Answer 7

I'd like to see you go to Afghanistan and find them, IF you think you can do better. Haven't you ever studied the terrain of that nation?
Also, do you not realize that there are people in that region, who are willing to give their live to protect those men?

Answer 8

Once more... If they were caught it would cause us less reason to be there. It's like the deal with Osama. If they capture or kill him they know more Americans will question our being there.

Answer 9

Because we have a President who is not exactly playing with a full deck.

Answer 10

Because the ace of spades is no longer important. Why would the rest of the deck be important if he isn't?
