In Washington, a U.S. official said the identities of the terror suspects killed was unknown. Asked if they could include al-Zarqawi, the official replied: "There are efforts under way to determine if he was killed."

That's a little red flag, now isn't it? They clearly thought he MAY have been there, or they wouldn't be checking into it.

Hopefully hes dead. Would be better off us killing him than taking him as a prisoner and all of the human rights assholes crying and comlaining about his treatment in captivity. Easier just to kill him.

Stay tuned and see if there is any veracity to the story..

One question. If Zarqawi is dead, then who would the democrats have us surrender to???

I guess Zarqawi shouldn't have threatened the life of Jordan's King.

"...some by their own hand to avoid capture."

We can kill 'em, or they can kill themselves. Makes no difference to me.

If this is true, and I sure hope it finally is, I'm going to set off fireworks or something to celebrate. I'll at least have a beer and make a toast to our brave soldiers, that's for darn sure! :)

They probably don't want to make any announcement until they know for sure.

To Kill Zarqawi would be great, to kill him the same week the democrats almost surrendered would be priceless!

Three insurgents detonated explosives and killed themselves to avoid capture, Iraqi officials said. Eleven Americans were wounded, the U.S. military said.

This is the point in the story where the writer starts repeating himself and then just writes filler about Iraq.

Keeping my fingers crossed...

All stats are now on the side of this story. Besides Iraqis are sick of this guy and want him caught or dead.

He also threatened the life of the King of Jordan....not smart...they'll find a way to get him...looks like they've used our great military to do just that. ;o)

I doubt he was among the dead, he seems like the type that would try to escape some how. I remember he was cornered on a highway where we found his computer months back and escaped when the car went under an underpass.

What iritates me about the story, is how the reporter has to mix in unrelated coalition casualties, starting with the second paragraph.
