Sometimes the Iraqis are a bit premature with this stuff. I’ll wait on the Coalition confirmation. It would be great news to have their second leader wondering where the virgins are, though.

This pos and what he has probably told our allies and us is why the left wing is so against doing what needs to be done to get critical intel from these Islamofacist Serial Killers.

The Reids, Pelosis, Murthas, Clintoons, Kerry’s and Kennedys know that their secret funders are in real danger when we or our allies capture their Islamofascist buddies.

Sorry, militants now are saying he is safe. The Iraquis want to believe he is dead. They are sort of like liberal Dems, they wish, dream things go their way. As usual, the bad guy has made it safely. Sort of like how Phila. fans see their teams. You know they will break your heart. So any good news in Iraq will be, ‘it will break our hearts.’ Now if it is true, the MSM will blame Bush for not getting him sooner!

al Qaeda pretty much hates everybody. ~ Lazamataz

Harry Reid? ~ FreeReign

For most of us they have fear and loathing.

For Harry and his ilk the have loathing and contempt.

I'm saddened that I share even that little bit with them...

The mainstream media must be experiencing "shock and awe" right now.

I have a friend who just returned from twelve months in Anbar province working the counter Improvised Explosive Device (IED) problem. It was his fourth tour of duty in Iraq.

His assessment is that:

1. We are very close to providing the stability required for the Iraqis to be successful

2. The flow of terrorists from external countries has been significantly interdicted and that the terrorists are far fewer in number than people realize

3. The media is 3 to 6 months behind on the real stroy in Iraq

4. The media is fully invested in our defeat in Iraq

Wait! I saw this episode of Star Trek! Kirk and the landing team get caught in a solar storm and are transported onto an identical ENTERPRISE in an alternate universe. Kirk has a Mistress and Spock has a beard. Advancement is accomplished by assassination....

Nancy Pelosi and Benedict Arnold Harry Reid are saddened, deeply saddened The Surge is paying off.

Actually you're wrong. The Democrats will claim that since this was an internal kill that we don't need to be there any longer. Watch them spin this into "Bush's policy is a failure."

> The U.S. military said it could not confirm the reports.

Hopefully this story is not true. Hopefully it is cover for the “real” story: al Masri at an undisclosed CIA rendition location learning to surf the waterboard and ratting out all his mates. Thereafter, off to Gitmo for a reunion.

"4. The media is fully invested in our defeat in Iraq"

Meanwhile, everybody in Iraq is turning against AQ. There is a connection to be made between them.
