Iraqi PM: Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi Killed

By PATRICK QUINN

BAGHDAD, Iraq Jun 8, 2006 (AP)— Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the al-Qaida-linked militant who led a bloody campaign of suicide bombings, kidnappings and hostage beheadings in Iraq, has been killed in a U.S. air raid north of Baghdad, Iraq's prime minister said Thursday.

Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki said al-Zarqawi was killed Wednesday evening along with seven aides.

Sounds to me like you have been seriously misinformed as to why we are fighting in Iraq.

I just checked out a DU thread where the opinion appears divided between those who believe Al-Zarqawi is a fictitious character belonging to a fictitious organization (Al Qaeda) and those who acknowledge his existence but refuse to believe the news reports of his death.

So opinion is divided between the openly delusional and the openly traitorous.

We aren't dying for just their freedom but our own, you SOB.

Read this and tell me Iraq didn't pose a threat to the US. Do you know that they knew 9/11 was coming? Do you think the anthrax came from Iraq, because I do and so do a lot of other respected people in government.

Fritz Hollings mentioned on the floor of the Senate that Iraq's state run newspaper knew exactly what was coming to the United States -- in July 2001 they published an article about it.

Before 9/11 (August 2001?), Saddam put his military on the highest state of readiness since the first Gulf War, goes into a bunker with his two wives (who hated each other and had never before been housed together) and does not emerge until well after 9/11.

But I don't expect the facts will get in the way of your agenda and tiny, ugly mind.

I think it's got to do with the whole peace and love teachings of Christ. He never did say to NOT stand up to evil exactly, but sometimes our human minds extrapolate that Jesus would not have liked us doing certain things.

Listened to the Inus interview with Liberman, the jerk was about anti-war as you can get. He is as bad as Al Frankenstein.

As a Christian I shouldn't celebrate the death of anyone, but this is extremely good news!

I'm also a Christian, and I think the death of an evil man should be celebrated. And welcome to FreeRepublic!

I'm stunned at how much that photo looks like it could've been taken in the Florida Keys.

"It seems you do not understand the nature of the war we're fighting. Simply put, we're *over there* so they don't come *over here* again."

Mrs. T nails it.

Could you let the President know?

He keeps getting sidetracked into the WMD trap and/or the "freedom for the long-oppressed Iraqi people".

Both are worthy goals, but why be afraid to state the obvious:

We're gonna keep the barrel of our guns right in your face in YOUR backyard.
