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.

[Brilliant]

It's not about one man.... Until they catch him. Then, it's about one man.

[Blood of Tyrants]

It is either pure bluster or this guy is a complete idiot.

[avg_freeper]

"I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that anything that senior military say like this is carefully thought out, and part of a well-planned strategy."

Yeah, I would tend to agree. I just hate it when anyone provides fodder for our rabid left-wing news media "insurgency".

[sarasota]

Did Zarq take "credit" for the recent downed helicopter?

[C-Note]

Exactly.

They know where he is and are watching the area. After this announcement they are hoping Zarqawi leaves, then BOOM.

[b4its2late]

How many aides does he have left?

[sarasota]

I don't think Z's "associates" think like that. Money can't buy the glory of martyrdom against the infidels.

[NetValue]

If this were true we better get him and end it fast. The politics of the war are changing and we still need to deal with nuclear proliferation by North Korea and the threat of nuclear attack by Iran.

[COBOL2Java]

How many aides does he have left?

What day of the week is this?

[dead]

I think enough money might get one of them to consider just this one itty-bitty sin.

Allah-schmallah. $25 million buys alot of virgins in the here and now.

Looks like their doing a flush out the toilet move. Watch for high speed caravans to get a nice bomb up their tailpipe.

[phoenix_004]

Just nuke the whole of pakistan.....That will kill most of the curent terrorists and the future terrorists!!!!

[moose2004]

Abizaid probably referring to the fact that US and Iraqi intelligence have learned a great deal about his hideouts, his pattern of movements, and the fact that they can count on more and more cooperation from Iraqi citizens who sickened by the ruthless murder of thousands of their fellow countrymen by Al Qaeda.

[sharktrager]

If we know where he is, why, exactly, hasn't he assumed room temperature. Damned If I Know

[ASA Vet]

Don't be so hard on you're self.

[GiveEmDubya]

"I think we have a good idea of where to find him," Abizaid told CNN."

Now kill him!

[verity]

I, for one, appreciate your intelligent observation.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Uh, General, I'd rather you not tell us, given that he's probably already packed up and moved with this announcement.

My bet is they don't really know where he is but by announcing that they do he will be flushed into the open long enough for a Predator to lock onto him.
