[history]
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."

If this is true, the devil will have told old Adolf and Joe to get busier and start digging faster that new hole for Zark's place in hell, and the devil will have told Uday and Quday to get the fires burning hotter.

Negative, Ghostrider. Look again. The Debka thread only made me go look for legitimate news source. The first mention of this raid I found (and pinged you to) was a San Diego publication. Debka may actually have gotten this one right, but I still view it as a joke.

Excellent probable- certainly possible, series of events.
One thinks Zarq's "apology" for the wedding slaughter fell on deaf ears...

My opinion on this is that if they did get Zarqawi, it's a direct result of his actions in Jordan.Yup. That and the tribe denouncing him. He got the call, as they say in Donnie Brasco.

I think the time needed depends on the type of DNA they're using?
