Baghdad, Iraq, Nov. 22 (UPI) -- Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the suspected al-Qaida leader in Iraq, was spotted south of the northern Iraqi oil-center of Kirkuk, reports said Monday.

The daily al-Taakhi, organ of the Kurdistan Democratic Party led by Massoud Barzani, quoted a police source in Kirkuk as saying Zarqawi had fled the battles in Fallujah to northern Iraq and might have been wounded.

"Zarqawi was able to sneak out of Fallujah with the help of his followers and moved in stages to the province of Toz Khormatu, south of Kirkuk," said the source, who was not identified.

He said Zarqawi was seen riding in an ambulance and heading towards southern Kirkuk, 260 kilometers (162 miles) northeast of Baghdad.

Iraqi forces backed by U.S. troops battled for more than a week against suspected Iraqi insurgents and Zarqawi's followers in Fallujah, west of Baghdad, in an attempt to out them from the Sunni city.

Zarqawi, a Jordanian, and his followers are blamed for the kidnapping and beheading of foreigners and for terrorist bombing attacks targeting Iraqi police and U.S.-led multinational forces.

Someone tell the left wing media that Bush's strategy for pushing the killers out of Fallujah has already forced a Zarquai sighting.

His days are much shorter now, thanks to our soldiers and marines. And no thanks to the corrupt liberal media.

What a celebration there is gonna be when this one is nailed. And I don't want him taken alive. I want one of our finest to have the privilege of doing him in. Then I hope we'll post his dead buttface all over the internet. In fact, I hope we hijack e Al-Jazeera just for this purpose....

"He said Zarqawi was seen riding in an ambulance"

Red Cross/Red Crescent again? They love to help terrorists.

[pissant]

And Osama's working at the corner 7-11. I only want to read the after action report of his death.

[joyce11111]

W...go get him

[Jazzman1]

OOOH, let's hope and pray when OUR FINEST do find him it will be a slow and painful death.

[Dog]

We take him alive annie....he will give us the whole terrorist network...up to and including Osama's location.

[Parley Baer]

If he is in the courtryside or in a smaller town it will be easier to get him. Lord let it be so. Parley

[BigSkyFreeper]

I hope that smarmy bastard Kevin Sites is there, camera in hand, videotape rolling, documenting what the media describes as the "hideous killing of an innocent Arab".

[E. Pluribus Unum]

And Osama's working at the corner 7-11.

[Neanderthal]

Somebody should quick tell the Marines.

[priceofreedom]

isnt Kirkuk a Kurdish area? (not sure)
if so it probably is not a safe place for the beheader.

[My2Cents]

Right you are. This guy, like all terrorists, is a coward who will fold like a cheap card table.

[TheCrusader]

Zarqoward's days are numbered now. I remember when they started having Saddam sightings everywhere, wasn't long before they got him.

[GraniteStateConservative]

It's a religion of peace. Did you miss the memo?

[blteague]

your time is coming my friend...I pray you meet one of our SpecOps boys in a cold dark alley and that he shows you the same mercy you have shown the hostages you have decapitated.

[Dog]

He was being protected in Falluja....by Omar Hadid.....if this report is true......that $25 million will look good to some poor Iraqi.

I hope we have the Iranian border covered ......it sounds like he is running for there.

[BigSkyFreeper]

Killing him puts him out of his misery, and destroys intelligence information we could possibly get if we humiliated him enough.

[VadeRetro]

Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the suspected al-Qaida leader in Iraq, was spotted south of the northern Iraqi oil-center of Kirkuk...

That eliminates north of Kirkuk. Now for the rest of the globe!

[maestro]

He said Zarqawi was seen riding a motor cycled camel and heading towards southern Kirkuk, 260 kilometers (162 miles) northeast of Baghdad.

/sarcasm,.....sorry, camel.

"What a celebration there is gonna be when this one is nailed. And I don't want him taken alive. I want one of our finest to have the privilege of doing him in. Then I hope we'll post his dead buttface all over the internet."

I agree. And although I know he MIGHT be more helpful if he's captured alive, I still can't help but hope he'll be done in - a la Uday and Qusay...

[Another Thought]

Tell Kevin Sites so he can do an interview an photo op. He will also want to be present at the capture to hold everyone properly accountable to MSM standards of conduct.

[Terpfen]

"Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the suspected al-Qaida leader in Iraq..."

At least the Washington Times will honestly tell us that there are indeed terrorists in Iraq.

[ken5050]

Correctamundo, doggiee.we'll turn him over to the Iraqis for "questioning"..

[BigSkyFreeper]

Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the suspected al-Qaida leader in Iraq, was spotted south of the northern Iraqi oil-center of Kirkuk...

Seal the borders to the East, West and North and set up a perimeter around Kirkuk and slowly make that perimeter smaller. Zarqawi is thereby cornered, and eventually captured.

I'm sure this is the strategy.

[gridlock]

Is there any particular reason we don't stop and search all ambulances on the road in Iraq?

[skikvt]

I hope they catch him alive and put Helen Thomas's panties on his head.....

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

ROFL!

[xzins]

You must be thinking that he's gotten very, very conceited.

:>)

[weenie]

Riding in an ambulance...these guys are such cowards.

I have an old book somewhere (I can't remember the title) in which diaries of the medieval crusaders are presented and one point that was repeated often by the crusaders was that they couldn't believe that the muslims had no standards of courage or valor.

[sheik yerbouty]

Maybe the Kurds can find him first.

[Right Wing Assault]

How big IS this guy's head??

"And I don't want him taken alive. I want one of our finest to have the privilege of doing him in"

Could not agree more. And I hope NO embedded media is there to witness it; photograph it. . .interpret it.

[My2Cents]

Not much courage and valor are required to be a butcher.

[RinaseaofDs]

Riding in an ambulance.

What a bunch of freakin' cowards.

They should use a laser guided bomb, equipped with one of those video transmitters that show the cool footage of the target being approached by the ordnance, as his colonoscopy probe when they finally catch him.

[freakboy]

What do you want to bet the coward will try to flee Iraq?

[Liberals are Evil Socialists!]

Sounds like a diversion to me. Hope they still check the Syrian and Jordanian borders.

[kyperman]

Thats to easy for this trash, he needs a good ol' torture session with the familys of those be murdered, complete with high voltage to the family jewels.

[Right Wing Assault]

Is she ROP or was she just watching too much Al-Jazeera?

[95 Bravo]

You must first HAVE a pair of family jewels to apply high voltage to. Not applicable in the case of Zarcoward.

[PeoplesRepublicOfWashington]

Zarqawi deserves the Mussolini treatment.

[spokeshave]

Kirkuk you say.......

He needs a ride in the Kursk

Followed by luncheon with Polonius

[trek]

"I hope we hijack e Al-Jazeera just for this purpose...."

I hope a Marine finds him wounded and caps him, preferably on film.

[anniegetyourgun]

This one will never talk....

[Shqipo]

OK...Now blow up everything south of Kirkuk and be done with it. Let the Kurds have the whole place as their new homeland.

[Billthedrill]

...Zarqawi had fled the battles in Fallujah to northern Iraq and might have been wounded.

Painfully, one hopes.

[halfright]

Helen wears pull up diapers.....
