I think most of these guys take an Abu name as a nom de guerre.

But .. but .. but ... I thought that there was no link between Iraq and Al Qaeda before 9/11?

LOL.

Paging the 9-11 Commission...

Sheesh - I really REALLY hate unrolling the tinfoil, but I'm starting to wonder if Zarqawi was killed long ago, or we're just not trying hard enough to find him.

Is it really possible we've wiped out this many people who we could infer have close contact (as aides) with Zarqawi, but we can't find him? We found Hussein in a rat hole, what, three or four weeks into the war? And no one will give up Zarqawi?

I think Zarqawi is long gone (out of the country or no longer among the living).


Flame away. It just doesn't add up.

1) Be Chuck Norris's best friend

2) Be Bond's local assistant

3) Be a guard in any superhero action movie

Nah, number one's gotta be "Be the guy wearing the yellow shirt in a Star Trek landing party"...

That brings the total number of "top level aids" killed to 247,955.

That is the best post on Free Republic -- ever!

I am sick and tired of all these "top aid" stories. Let's kill Bin Laden, Omar, Zarqawi and Al Zawari. Other than that, I don't want to hear about it!

Actually, the 9/11 Commission specifically said there werelinks between Al Qaeda and Iraq pre 9/11.

They did not say there were links between Iraq and 9/11 itself.

Its these little turn of phrases the meida use to confuse people.

Time for an expose on the terror/fishing connection. Abu Garcia has been terrorizing fishies for years!

I'm waiting to read the term "executed" in the last column. Unless these guys have a crisis conversion to Christianity.
