I posted it first!

I'm glad he's dead, mostly because of the guy who's head he sawed off with a serrated knife.
But this will have absolutely no effect on what's going on in Iraq.  If anything, it will increase the number of attacks in the short term.

Agreed.  The problem with fighting an organization rather than a nation is that its leaders are usually easily replaced.  Six months from now there will be someone in his place.

I found that just surviving was a noble fight.
I once believed in causes too,
I had my pointless point of view,
And life went on no matter who was wrong or right.

I disagree, Joel.  al-Zarqawi was the head of the snake in Iraq.  Killing him was a major strike against al-Qaida.

Sure, someone will take his place but the fact is he was quickly gaining legendary and almost mythical stature in the Middle East.  Taking him out lets the ragheads know that anyone can be gotten to eventually.

This might be a crushing blow to the insurgency in Iraq.  Then again, it might not.  I sure as hell hope it is.

I hope you are correct...time will tell.

Please stay in Florida.  You're not just dreaming, you're doing it out loud with KKK language.  Nice.

Also, you are mistaken about the snake's head/major blow idea.  The insurgency in Iraq will continue as long as the occupation continues.   The U.S. has lost and everyone knows it.  It's just a matter of time.

fyi - the 'ragheads' consider it an honor to die and will be lining up to carry on this cats legacy and would be more than happy to go out like he did

lolol @ you thinking these guys are worried that the US might be able to get to them

the only way this effects anything is if zarqawi was some sort of tactical genius and has leadership skills that are irreplacable...i highly doubt thats the case but that would be the only scenario where this would negatively effect the insurgency

Define "lost".  Its actually impossible for the US to "lose" the war in Iraq...we will not be defeated on the battlefield.  I actually see a "Vietnamish" finish to this one, where we establish a crooked, creaky "democracy", withdrawal our troops declaring "peace with honor", then the Islamofacists will overthrow the democracy.
