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 heard that as well, she is really stupid. She is a liberal from the way she is talking. She seems very unhappy about this and she wants to put a doom and gloom scenario on it. The hateful liberals are really despicable.

[nopardons]

WOW ! :-)

[bonfire]

Except if my phone rung in the wee hours I would have a heart attack.

[Timeout]

Nah. Let her sleep. I wish I could go back to bed but I can't sleep after this.

Tonight...when Chris Matthews looks like he's eating s*%t....I'll be too woozy to enjoy it.

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

Strange..I just sort of woke up & came to the computer.

[Howlin]

It's about damn time we had some good news, eh?

[peggybac]

Who are you talking about?

[Just A Nobody]

Thank you for the great first hand report Allegra. It is a great day for Iraq and America!

[nopardons]

For real...they actgually said that?

[Rte66]

Another one bites the dust
And another one gone, and another one gone
And another one gone, and another one gone
And another one gone, and another one gone
And another one gone ...

[Allegra]

Who is Allegra? Does he have any video to post...

I'm a "she". ;-) I work in Baghdad and am seeing all of this. Iraqis are telling us "thank you."

The initial reaction has now died down but there is still laughter and everyone is smiling.

"You can always go to DU to get a fair and balanced report (gag)"

As of now, the DU thread on Zarqawi's death has a total of five posts. pop-up link, you won't leave here, I promise!

They must be kinda bummed!

[Howlin]

Latest from DU: "Zarqawi never existed. He was just a fictional straw man set up by US to have someone to hate."

By all means, let's turn this country over to those fools in 2006 and 2008, huh?

"I'm thinking of calling onyx and waking her up! :-)"

I think onyx is up on the other thread.

[bonfire]

Keep the reports coming, Allegra! Thanks!

[nopardons]

Oh boy.....the TURBANATOR! :-)

[Citizen Soldier]

That is so cool! THEY get it!
