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.

Al Murthawi is in a corner.

Actually, he has come off as being incredibly stupid. Just about anyone with even an ounce of brain knows we still can't pull out now. I always thought Murtha was smarter than this, merely because of his service. I never served and even I know that.

We now know the SOB is dead. It's disappointing though that his body hasn't been turned over to his victims for desecration.

I'm not entirely unhappy about this. I figure in the next life he'll get punishment and desecration enough.

I agree! If he hadn't been up, watching and alert, all us FReepers wouldn't be "the first to know" as is rightfully so!

Maybe many readers feel this way and might post kudos and a recommendation that St Jacques reap a handsome (? in regards to Howard Dean) "Howard Dean voodoo doll or something" reward.

Perhaps. But I envision that God will enact a punishment far beyond anything we mortals could do to him or his corpse at this point.

I heard about this on the way to work and am just now seeing, on Jim's wonderful site, how it broke. It's beautiful. Wooo hooo! I am so happy and happy for you to be the "breaker." Congratulations!
