Iraqi celebrate after hearing that Al-Qaeda militant Abu
Musab al-Zarqawi was killed in a joint US-Iraqi raid on the
outskirts of the restive city of Baquba. US and Iraqi
officials hailed Zarqawi's demise as a major blow against
al-Qaeda's bid to destabilise the country

Make that Al Zarqawi is now in HOG HEAVEN.

Along with thousands of other scum bag terrorists waiting for their 72 virgins straight from a Baghdad brothel.

Then it's on to fires of HELL for the rest of eternity.

MSM is upset with good news. They like their liberal bloodline do not what success in Iraq. They are calling for troops to come home asap. When in fact they care nothing about our military. Our military is well aware of who supports them and who does not!

By golly, I think that he is a goner! Yes indeed, hes gone yall!

Before:

An image grab from an undated video released on the website of the US Department of Defence (DOD) May 2006 shows Abu Musab al-Zarqawi holding an automatic rifle at an undisclosed location in Iraq. Tony Blair has said that he had "no illusions" that Abu Musab al-Zarqawi's death would alone lead to stability in Iraq but welcomed it as a blow to Al-Qaeda everywhere.(AFP/DoD/File)

After:

Good morning.
"And with all due respect, yes, I've seen impact zones from hellfires."

Good enough. Look at the film of the bombs exploding and you might reevaluate your statement that the damage doesn't look like bomb damage.

Personally, I'm more interested in the SOF operators who illuminated the building for those good Air Force pilots.

The moderators are doing a great job, but your superb sleuthing skills sure helped

Thanks but lets be honest. Dov12348 announced he/she was posting at FR and gave their poster name. No real sleuthing just extreme bravery at going behind enemy lines to bring the truth to the FR. lolol

Even Chief Moose couldn't have missed that one.
