The two 500-pound bombs dropped on the house where Mr. Zarqawi was staying north of Baghdad killed five other people instantly, two men and three women, said Maj. Gen. William Caldwell, the American military spokesman here. When Iraqi police officers entered the ruins ahead of the American soldiers, they found Mr. Zarqawi badly wounded but still alive. The Iraqis strapped him to a gurney, General Caldwell said. American soldiers arrived almost immediately thereafter and quickly identified Mr. Zarqawi, the most hunted man in Iraq, by his scars and tattoos, General Caldwell said. Mr. Zarqawi tried to turn away and roll off the stretcher, the general said, and the American soldiers strapped him back on. http://www.nytimes.com/2006/06/10/world/mi...artner=homepage I'm surprised this hasn't come up yet. A major kill, although we are not to be deluded into thinking it is over. The man personally beheaded at least two innocent people, and was responsible for killing many Iraqi civilians and US military. I'm confident if there is a hereafter, he will be enjoying his virgins in an eternal fire of damnation for his heinious acts. To bad we didn't execute Sadam when we had the chance, which would further taken the fire out of the insurgents support. |

"exuberantly" You can put things so "tactfully" sometimes, Chris. I plead Guilty to being caught up in the moment. |

It is sad but the "enemy" believe that every American soldier killed takes the fast road to hell. Wars over race and religion are the most brutal. I hope that this makes a difference but we have "turned the corner" many times in the past... Ken |

Bush has stated taking out leaders is not the goal, because it will have little effect againt terrorist organizations of loose independent cells--of no organization at all. Yet this is now hailed as a great victory? False Dawn?
