[Allegra]

I would like to see official confirmation by U.S. authorities/military first, though.

I'm waiting for that before I celebrate.

The MoI...well..let's just say we've had reports like this before and they turned out to be false.

I'm hoping like heck it's true, though.

[mware]

Just heard it looks like if this is the guy, the Iraqi’s killed him themselves.

[mware]

Oh dear, strike that one off as one of the people who Nancy Pelosi planned to visit off the list.

On the four year anniversary of MISSION ACCOMPLISHED, and the day that REID & PELOSI surrendered by representing their bill to the President.

What timing.

The leader of al-Qa'ida in Iraq, Abu Ayyub al-Masri, seen here in an October 2006 video, has reportedly been killed in an internal insurgent fight north of Baghdad. Picture: AFP

Well I guess Time mag can’t make him ‘MAn of the Year” now that he is DOA.

[syriacus]

Iraqi officials have blamed al Qaeda in Iraq for destroying a holy Shi'ite shrine in Samarra a year ago, an act that unleashed a surge in sectarian bloodletting that has driven Iraq closer to all-out civil war.

Bears repeating!

[Road Warrior ‘04]

The Democrat leader in Iraq is dead? The Democrat leaders in the U.S. will be mourning this day! Pelosi, Reid, Murtha, et al will be wearing black today. Their counterpart in Iraq is dead.
