Jimmy Carter and Christie Whitman rushed to pay homage at Arafat's gravesite. Wonder which of our esteemed congress-creatures will be lamenting the death of this murdering scum.

At this monumentous time in American history, I'd lke to go on record as penning an obituary for the "Prince of Al Qeada" :

Borrowed from Ez.28 -

6'Therefore this is what the Sovereign LORD says:

'Because you think you are wise, as wise as a god,

7 I am going to bring foreigners against you, the most ruthless of nations; they will draw their swords against your beauty and wisdom and pierce your shining splendour.

8 They will bring you down to the pit, and you will die a violent death in the heart of the seas.

9 Will you then say, I am a god, in the presence of those who kill you? You will be but a man, not a god, in the hands of those who slay you.

10 You will die the death of the uncircumcised at the hands of foreigners.

I have spoken, declares the Sovereign LORD.'



11The word of the LORD came to me:

12 Son of man, take up a lament concerning the king of Tyre and say to him: 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says:

'You were the model of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.

13 You were in Eden, the garden of God; every precious stone adorned you: ruby, topaz and emerald, chrysolite, onyx and jasper, sapphire, turquoise and beryl. Your settings and mountings were made of gold; on the day you were created they were prepared.

14 You were anointed as a guardian cherub, for so I ordained you. You were on the holy mount of God; you walked among the fiery stones.

15 You were blameless in your ways from the day you were created till wickedness was found in you.

16 Through your widespread trade you were filled with violence, and you sinned. So I drove you in disgrace from the mount of God, and I expelled you, O guardian cherub, from among the fiery stones.

17 Your heart became proud on account of your beauty, and you corrupted your wisdom because of your splendour. So I threw you to the earth; I made a spectacle of you before kings.

18 By your many sins and dishonest trade you have desecrated your sanctuaries. So I made a fire come out from you, and it consumed you, and I reduced you to ashes on the ground in the sight of all who were watching.

19 All the nations who knew you are appalled at you; you have come to a horrible end and will be no more.'

Are they deeply saddened over at DU?

Zarqawi was helping them with their agenda. Strange bedfellows.

I'm sure there will be a BBC reporter sheding tears during a broadcast at the scene of Zarqawi's death today.

sceptics said his influence was exaggerated.

He was exhibit A that the US had a failing policy in Iraq BEFORE today. Now he will be an exaggerated threat and truly an all around misunderstood nice guy.

"It was a far cry from Zarqawi's youth as a petty criminal in Jordan, remembered by those who knew him by his real name - Ahmad Fadil al-Khalayleh - as a simple, quick-tempered and barely literate gangster."

If the above it true, and it probably is, then Zarqawi was being used by others who are smarter and don't require the notoriety. Probably Saudi.

Never the less....his body should be publicly thrown in to a pen with 100's of pigs until it is torn to pieces, eventually disappearing into the slop. There should be a web-cam set up and broadcast 24-7 so every member of his former little band of terrorists gets the message: you are next.

And nowhere in this article is any form of t-word used. Not even once.
