Iraqi PM: Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi Killed

By PATRICK QUINN

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.

I read that entire article. It was great!

[Cindy]

I pray everyday for our country and our troopers.

[Peach]

LOL. You're welcome.

[JFC]

THANK YOU AMERICA'S FINEST!

What a way to wake up.

God bless our military and the people of Iraq, may aggresive progress start to balloon across that nation.

Evil doers never win... the good guys always will. Take that libs and MSM.

Has Yaaawn Kerry or Turda congratulated our troops yet??

Pray for W and Our Air Force

These people are sick. All I have read there is how it means nothing that Zarq is dead. They want to believe that SO badly!! And also..they say how "un-Christian" we Christians are that are celebrating this death.

I just woke up here on the West Coast. Some people have sour grapes? Too bad.

High fives all around to everyone who's not a DU troll.

As for it being un-Christian. I for one am glad that murderous bastard was killed in such an unceramonious manner. As a Catholic who opposes the death penalty I have about as much sympathy for Zaqawi as I would for Hitler: zilch.

[Fudd Fan]

YES! -- We have no Zarqawi,
We have no Zarqawi today!!**

**[To the tune of "Yes! We Have No Bananas]

72 degrees F.

Assuming room temperature in the summer in Iraq would probably mean that your body temperature would rise.

CNN has a pic on their website, too...FRAMED AND MATTED! Gotta love it.

Full statement from the President on the killing of Zarqawi.

Rumsfeld up now.

[Smogger]

Big Deal. In WW2 Zarqawi would have been the equivalent of a low end german officer. Our great military has been reduced to chasing and killing radical office clerks.

DU TROLL ALERT!!!

Boy they are running rampant here this morning. Get out the industrial size can of RAID.

[Crawdad]

He has ceased to be!

[CWOJackson]

"As I understand it, Zarqawi was in a meeting with seven aids at the time of the bombing. All were killed."

Meeting adjourned and will reconvene in Hell.

[MozartLover]

This should be good...

Caldwell: We did. We did find some information. What everyone needs to understand that the strike didn't occur in a 24 hour period. It was a long exploitation of signals and human intelligence, many weeks led us to that target. Last night we conducted 17 simultaneous raids in Baghdad proper and outskirts and those 17 raids a tremendous am ount of intelligence was collected and is being utlized for further use. IT WAS A TREASURE TROVE!

Bump and a-bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, BUMP!! THANK YOU Peach!

Fear not. We who live here know well who the trolls are.

We will swat them with the TRUTH!

GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS!
