In other news, John McCain demanded he be sent to Leavenworth and given constitutional rights.

Osama bin Laden or Ayman al-Zawahiri are the ones that mean most to the public and they are, “in the rear with the gear” somewhere.

I hope McCain he does not hear about it or he will get a 'big headache!'

The abuses... the humanity! :)

Well, al Arabiya is where I first heard of Zarqawi's demise back in '06 and it turned out to be true.

But I'm going to wait for our military to confirm this...
