At least one Arab television media outlet reported that Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the head of the al-Qaida in Iraq, was killed in Iraq on Sunday afternoon when eight terrorists blew themselves up in the in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul.
The unconfirmed report claimed that the explosions occurred after coalition forces surrounded the house in which al-Zarqawi was hiding.
WASHINGTON, Nov 20 (Reuters) - U.S. authorities are looking into whether al Qaeda in Iraq leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi was killed in a gunfight in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul, a U.S. official said on Sunday, but a White House spokesman said that was "highly unlikely."

sounds like 8 terrorists didn't care who he was ... i was wonder if he whined the way Che did before the federales shot him dead
Oh yeah. If we can get Saddam, we can get his bastard. I'm betting he's sitting in Syria because he's dead meat if he goes anywhere in Iraq.

Uulating in anticipation!
I want to see him on a slab, just like Saddam's sons. It's the best way to treat these rats. There is no way Saddam should still be breathing. The Iraqis should have put the Mussolini on him.
My first thought was the Jordanians too.
Seems to me that a suicide bombing is a great guise for dissapearing...
Someone may have to alter the crying Cindy Sheehan pic about hurricane Katrina to include her disappointment
of Zarqawis death.
Karl Rove - Good One; I missed that one.
Ahh, I guess it really DOES take a village . . . . .
Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!
We need DNA proof this human waste has been greased.
This would be such fabulous news - but for it not to be true would be awful. How many news sites are reporting this? What about DNA?
Anyone have details??
LOL
ROFLMAO! Did I detect just a microscopic tinge of sarcasm in there somewhere??
A FReeper Keeper!!
An Iraqi man paints over the picture of Al-Qaeda's frontman in Iraq Abu Musab al-Zarqawi on a billboard in Baghdad. The prominent Jordanian tribe the fugitive Islamist Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, disavowed him in a declaration published in top Jordanian newspapers.(AFP/File/Ali al-Saadi)
LOL
Ouch!
Wonder what his screen name was?

So if he IS dead, does that mean he possibly JUST MISSED being enroled and covered by his "underwriter" John McCain in his "24/7-365 Terrorist Insurance Torture Protection Plan?"......
