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.

"In other news, Generallissimo Francisco Franco is still dead."

That line needs to be updated to: In other news, Abu Musab Al Zarqawi is still dead.

Attempting to give cover to Murtha and other liberal politicians, the MSM is saturating the airwaves with Berg and other liberals. They will not succeed because the socialist Dem politicians are too enamored of their cause and the spotlight.

The MSM has to find ways to negate Americans celebrating the power, cunning and might of the US military.

The MSM will ramp up their propaganda against the US military because today the US military took out a known enemy of the USA and western civilization.

God keep our coalition forces and President Bush safe from all enemies - foreign and domestic.

Howlin, thanks as always for the ping.

Zarqawi Hideout Yields 'Trove' of Materials - NPR

A U.S. military strike has killed the most feared terrorist in Iraq, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. As the head of a group called "al-Qaida in Iraq," Zarqawi was blamed for coordinating suicide bombings, beheadings and other violence. The U.S. military reportedly relied on intelligence from Zarqawi's own network to find him.

The Jordanian-born Zarqawi was killed when U.S. warplanes dropped 500-pound bombs on his hiding place. Pentagon officials say they later found a "treasure trove" of material at the hiding place, which they believe will help in future operations.

Zarqawi's death Wednesday ended a winding path from Jordan to Afghanistan and Iraq. After dropping out of high school in Jordan, Zarqawi reportedly embraced a branch of radical Islam while fighting in Afghanistan. After a prison sentence in Jordan, he carried the banner of radical Islam to a remote corner of Iraq. After the fall of Saddam Hussein, he swore allegiance to Osama bin Laden, and his organization began to call itself al-Qaida in Iraq.

This image made available Thursday, June 8, 2006 by the U.S. Department of Defense shows rugs and other household items in the rubble of the last safe house of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi in Hibhib, Iraq. Al-Zarqawi was killed at 6:15 p.m. Wednesday night June 7, after an intense two-week hunt that U.S. officials said first led to the terror leader's spiritual adviser and then to him.

Has anyone else noticed the repeated CG shots on FNC of F-4 PHANTOMS dropping the bombs on Z? Gee whiz, FNC, it's not 1971!

It's a great day!

You know I think it's fitting that only his head is shown. He's shown the heads of innocents that he beheaded so it seems to me that turnabout is fair play.
