If this is true, then we need to make a big deal out of it. Just think of the message:
"Had we gone along with Mr. Kerry's plan to pull troops out at the end of May, Zarqawi would still be at large, killing innocent men and women rather than 6 feet under."
I can't get to the NYT article that mentions it because you need a subcription .. but here are 2 links that make reference to it

Iraqi politicians should be told that they have until May 15 to put together an effective unity government or we will immediately withdraw our military. If Iraqis aren't willing to build a unity government in the five months since the election, they're probably not willing to build one at all. The civil war will only get worse, and we will have no choice anyway but to leave.
