An inside job

Meet Ayham Sameraei. He is a dual Iraq-American citizen. He is the former electricity minister of the interim Iraqi government and he was jailed for corruption. Up until this weekend he was a prisoner in one of the few safe places in Baghdad, inside the Green Zone. He is no longer thanks to a crack team of American security contractors who busted him out.

The American embassy says that it is assisting the Iraqi government in looking for him. I'll bet they're not assisting too hard.
