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.

How long before we hear about torture to get the intel on where he was.

A General Scales was just on FOXNEWS who said that he knew (and it will be revealed publicly in a few days) that Zarqawi was given up by a Sunni friendly to the coalition who had infiltrated al-Qaeda.

He said it is very good news that Sunnis are now turning on these rats and not giving them shelter.

Good morning.

I've seen several Leftists claim that this was a ploy to take Haditha from the headlines. I think there is a good chance that you are correct and we may see the atrocity stories actually go away for the reason you stated.

Wonder how this is connected to the new defense minister who is a Sunni. (Please remember that most Kurds are Sunnis).

BOO HOO! Your hero is gone. Go ask Murtha what your spin on this is.

You are right. My hero is gone.

I sure do miss Ronald Reagan.

But am having my own little personal Dead Zaqawi Day celebration. :-)

Let us all proclaim June 8 as Dead Zarqawi Day. LOL!

I too am sitting at work just quietly enjoying the heck out of myself.
