___Last time I checked, W was his Commander in Chief.

Oh, I believe that he is actively persuing Zarqawi and is itching to either capture him or get a confirmed kill, however, telling the press that we know where he is is pure bluster. If he knew, Zarqawi would be dead or in custody. If the general thought saying that he knew would flush him out, Zarqawi would know it was bluff and wouldn't rise to the bait (he hasn't stayed alive this long by being stupid).

I'm getting "close" to curing cancer too. When I've "found" the cure I'll let you know.

Are they trying to spook him so they can watch closely the several candidate sites they have, then catch him when he tries to run from the one he's actually in?

"He needs to be captured or killed. "

now what are we going to do with this worthless piece of camel dung if we capture him? Interrogate? sort through how many of his lies? When we do catch up with him , they ought to need to
have to use scoop shovels and garbage bags to collect him up.
Then feed that to the neighborhood dogs....seriously

Ramsfield said the same thing about bin Laden two years ago, but no result as we see.

Yeah I think that we've got most all of his "top lieutenants". Maybe we'll start getting a few "close captains" or an occassional "major major" now and then from here on out.

Or maybe his modern major generals. If we made a model out of a few of those, he might just have to surrender.

I think you're more correct on that...there is the point of
reverse psy-ops also....they probably figure, that Al-Z is
gonna trust his lieutenents (sp?) and close aids/spies/scouts, and not listen to public pronouncements anyway...This might be code for "we got most of 'em" so now it's time to take him down, or it may be to make the enemy think we don't really know, but we are doing that to embolden them, but we really know and are waiting for their next move to confirm our suspicions, and them "blam"....
These public pronouncements are really hard to decipher...

These announcements we are close to getting Bin Laden or Zarqawi make us look bad...too much talk and not enough results.

I've noticed that this Abizaid guy has been doing a whole lot of talking lately.

Half of the things he says would seem to have a detrimental effect to their efforts.

I've noticed that, too.
