If he is dead, my money is on Jordanian intel.
Agreed, he crossed the Rubicon with that screw up and then to declare his desire to assassinate the king of Jordan.
Hopefully he is now just a dead maroon.
My first, second and third thoughts after Zarqawi bombed Jordanians was that he had made an unbelievably stupid mistake, and that Jordanians might very well make him pay for it before anyone else did.
Didn't Z just threaten Jordan's king? If so, that was darn fast timing on finding him. I wonder how long they knew he was there?
If it was Jordan intel, sadly, they've probably known where he was all this time. It seems to depend on whose ox is gored.
If true, it would sound like the Jordanians were holding out on us, until THEIR asses were attacked and THEIR King was threatened..
It's getting harder and harder to trust an Arab Muslim.... With over 1,000,000,000 Muslims in the world -- you'd think that at least a million or two would be willing to join us on the BATTLEFIELD and not just sit in the bleachers...
Semper Fi
Jordanian intel is my guess as well. One simply should not threaten to kill the King.
