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."

My guess is that after the family tribe publicly disavowed him they blew him away, or at least told Coalition Forces where the scumbag could be found.

If he's not burning in hell right now, at least 8 of his kind are!

Whoever gave the nod to this campaign deserves the Nobel Peace Prize!

"The Democrats and Lefties will say that killing al-Zarqawi will only enrage Al Qaeda,"

They haven't said anything that makes sense in several years.

I just checked Tradesports, and the "Zarqawi Capture/Killed by Dec 05" commodity is moving--up 25 points today, but still only in the low 30 range.

That's very possible. Didn't Hussein's boys get turned in by one of their cousins?
