Skokie, IL man possibly killed by terrorists

Reports from various international media are reporting claims from an al-Zarqawi group that Skokie businessman Neenus Khoshaba was been executed.

Personal note: Skokie borders my hometown of Morton Grove.

It appears Khoshaba has no ties to the US military, he's a more likely just a guy trying to set up various business deals in Iraq. If he has been killed, it seems to be that he was murdered for being an American citizen.

In a related story, there are reports that not only has Abu-Musab al-Zarqawi been wounded, but that he also has left Iraq for treatment. A note of caution: reports of al-Zarqawi's capture or death have been almost daily media fodder. None so far have turned out to be true. The latest news does come from a web site that in the past has posted announcements from al-Qaeda, but it's a good idea for everyone to remain skeptical about this latest news.
