Juba the Sniper Captured?

Filed under: Uncategorized by Chad at 3:30 pm CST

From The Jawa Report:

The Iraqi Ministry of the Interior announced that it has captured the Baghdad sniper known as Ali Nazar al Jubori. The name sounds eerily familiar. al Jubori….could this be the original Juba sniper? That is the claim being made.

Let me remind my readers that the “Juba the Baghdad sniper” does not exist–at least, not in the heroic sense that the jihadi crowd has painted him as. He’s a myth. A piece of fictional propaganda produced by terrorists. A heroic superman for the al Qaeda supporters of the world.

This Juba guy was credited with, at one time around six months ago, over 400 kills of U.S. military personnel.  Of course those who gave Juba the kills are those that support him, and the facts on the ground always ran counter to Juba’s claims.

Dr. Shackleford is completely right.  The man was always a myth, which means his capture is worth more than if he had been real.

Digg It!
