It's on ABC Late Night News Right Now
ABC News Update:
BAGHDAD, Iraq Jun 8, 2006 (AP)— Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the al-Qaida-linked militant who led a bloody campaign of suicide bombings, kidnappings and hostage beheadings in Iraq, has been killed in a U.S. air raid north of Baghdad, Iraq's prime minister said Thursday.
Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki said al-Zarqawi was killed Wednesday evening along with seven aides.

If Josh Bolton is as smart a Chief-of-Staff that I think he is, I hope he'll "manage" to get the news out on how W took Z's photo out of his desk drawer and drew and X thru it.
Per FNC: Coalition presser at 8 AM ET.
No prob.
Ammo's cheap.
After hearing this hateful traitor, what you both said is not a far fetch!
Timeout and I think the same thing about Berg. He is an awful person.
Wonderful news to wake up to this morning!
YEP!!!!!!
Berg sr was on Fox and was disgusting..sad about "another human life" taken.He ranted about Bush and would not accept that Zarqawi did anything wrong.
We'll see how many want to step to the head of the line to replace him. If we got some good intel at the safe house, Zarqawi's death may be the least important aspect of this story.
Thanks, I have finally bookmarked it.
I was thinking MSNBC management (if there is such a thing?) told Imus he needed to stay on topic or they would pre-empt. But, if they did tell him that, he would have already revealed it.
I wish he'd get some one other that Crawford on there. He's turned too smarmy for me.
He sounded insnae today to me. Time for his wife to do a DNA check.
Love it, love it, LOVE IT!!!!
Was Nick Berg the one who had gone on a bipolar trip around Iraq thinking he could cash in on the problems there or get himself even more excited than he was?
I always thought he was an undermedicated smook with clueless parents, so this is no surprise that his father is delusional as well.
