For many Muslims, they're synonymous.
Being Islamist means you don't have to choose.
It is inevitable that they downplay the death of Zarqawi.
Actually, they haven't noticed that the official US policy is to downplay it. So they play into the administration's hands.
It's the other point of view, that this was the victory of all victories that would hurt the administration. Because when it proved NOT to be the end of the terrorist activity in Iraq, then the US would appear to have seriously underestimated or exaggerated.
The critically important point of all this is that Zarqawi would be universally loved by all Muslims if only he had attempted to confine his killing to Americans, Israelis, other non-Muslims and those "apostate" Muslims who actively support America's policies. Unfortunately, even when it is spelled out, many Americans and most Europeans do not understand.
Abdullah, a 29-year-old Saudi secretary, put the third point of view: "I consider Zarqawi as nothing more than propaganda for the Americans. He's just a name, a rumor so that they have somebody to blame everything on."
S/he obviously hasn't been decapitated by the Z-man.
Only Reuters would have the word hero in the headline with Al-Z.
So are the liberal Democrats. Though it's probably running about 70-30 in favor of the hero.
Anyone know if the DUmmies have started in on, "That pic is NOT Zarqawi!"
Murtha, Harry Reid, Pelosi, Boxer, Bill Clinton and Howard Dean can give their eulogies!

Reuters owned by the Saudis....
Reuters interviewed two New York cab drivers and one said "Down with Boosh!"... thus their headline.
He's an "EX-PARROT WHO'S PINING FOR THE FIORDS"!!!
He left with little tendrils of smoke rising from his corpse. Who is humiliated now?
That's okay, there are enough pieces to go around.
"I lost my appetite and will join the many that go to bed hungry tonight. This is why they go to bed hungry."
My wife said that I should sell that horrible picture as a new non drug birth control method.
Now we can add weight reduction to the medical claims.
