Good riddance! You know, if we pulled out of the middle east and left behind lots of explosives, all the hate mongers would kill each other off. They've been at it for years, but didn't have the materials.

Nothing like superior firepower. I love the smell of burning ragheads in the morning ...it smells like..VICTORY.
Seriously though. I wish there were enought of this low life ****sucker left...his head anyway to put on a stake.
Great news. I have WOOD for the second time this morning.
One down ...thousands left to kill.

I'm grateful that there was enough of him to identify conclusively, and I'm glad we didn't take him alive (sparing us yet another long drawn out trial drama a la Saddam.), but I wish that his death was more painful and had happened sooner. Perhaps we could mount his body and publicly display his remains in a pig sty.  Having said all that, his wretched end will mean less and less as time passes if we don't effectively exploit the vacuum his departure leaves within the ranks of the terrorist "insurgency." You don't win battles or wars by allowing the enemy time to regroup and recover. Hit them harder still while the animals are on the mat. Speaking of animals, the Westbury (Kansas) Baptist Church pukes were out here in Arkansas this past week protesting at a young soldier's funeral in Beebe. They held up their usual hateful signs while some of them STOOD on the American flag. People are showing an amazing restraint by not getting physical with these vomit spewing demons who are clothing themselves with their interpretation of God's word and shielded by the first amendment. That they are doing this at a time of war is - IMHO - traiterous behavior that gives comfort to our enemies. (In case you're interested, the law which prohibits these protests at funerals won't take affect until next month.)

We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

I heard ...on one of my favorite conservative watering holes....that Mike Berg...the father of the Berg who was one of al zarqweueeries victims (beheaded with knife on video)...said he was sorry that zarqawi was dead.
I dont know which one is more delusional Mike Berg or that moron Cindy Sheehan. Both of them need some help. Something way beyond a 12 step program no less.

i read that, too...something about how it's tragic when any human being dies, and how Bush and Blair are all about revenge...sure, it's tragic when a HUMAN BEING dies...al-Zarqawi wasn't human, he was a demon from hell...and it's not about revenge, it's about justice...that piece of sh!t won't be killing anybody else ever again...and you know what? i don't buy that self-righteous forgve him for he knew not what he did BS...I believe any (normal) father who had his son killed like that would be dancing in the streets saying "thank you, Lord"...I damn sure would be.

Pat, you are usually pretty good at math. I think you number is pretty low :-). We need to accelerate now, not sit back. New terrorist outpace the dead terrorist, the movement is growing not slowing. If we don't do something quick, it will get to the point where we simply have to kill them all.
We would have been better off catching him than killing him, but I will surely take the killing part as good enough for this monster. When you kill him, he inspires the young to be a great martyr like him and the movement grows. When you catch him he is shamed and rendered useless. A Muslim leader in jail is forgotten quickly, a dead one is remembered as a hero and one to be emulated.
I try to aggravate one person a day. Today may be your day.

The guys on the ground in Iraq say the terrorists are getting weaker. That the importation of terrorists is slowing and that their quality is declining. Very few Iraqis are involved with the terrorists and that the vast majority of the population hates them, as evidenced by the steadily increasing number of tips we get about them and the increasing size of the Iraqi army and police force. Of course that is from our rabidly partisan military, not from the totally objective and dispassionate press corps.

Yes indeedy. You wont hear a word of positive stuff from the strongly biased anti-American main stream media.
They are too busy celebrating the issue going on with the Marines who may or may not have crossed the line over there. Sadly our media only cares about publicizing the little negatives and none of the positives in our war against the raghead fascists.
Its sad to see those Marines already virtually convicted by the likes of losers like wolf blitztered and that ingrate murtha from PA. Sad Sad day indeed.
You'd think they would wait until the investigation was over and done before they start their hateful rhetoric.
Who am I kidding. That will never happen.

Those anti-American journalist cowards!! How dare they risk their lives to find out what is going on over there? Of course everyone knows they are just making that stuff up.
(In case you can't see it, I'm being facetious.) I know, I know, I shouldn't let myself get drawn in by this kind of tripe, but in this case I just couldn't help myself.
Seriously, I was trying to google anything about Bill O'Reilly reporting from Iraq, but I came up with zilch, zero, nada. I guess O'Reilly has never been to Iraq. Hmmmm.......

And your point is......?
We did not have embedded reporters to any degree in WW2. Had they been embedded to the degree they were/are in Iraq I am sure the casualty figures for them in WW2 would have been much higher.

Here's the deal Keven. I am sick to death of logging into this website and seeing people called un-American and un-patriotic and every other vicious, hateful name or label without one single!!!! shred of evidence to back it up. Your idea of anti-American is someone who doesn't agree with your views. You are a prime example of the pot calling the kettle black. To me, name-calling and hatred are everything that America it NOT about. Hate-mongering is NOT the culture that the founding fathers had in mind for this country. In fact, I think they would find THAT un-patriotic and un-American, and basically disgusting.
You can't expect to spew that kind of crap and not be challenged on it. I am perfectly willing to listen to a logical argument, but I'm not going to listen to vicious, hateful name-calling. I know some journalists, and I know that those people are hard working, dedicated professionals who try to present the facts in an unbiased manner. Some jounalists risk, and lose, their lives (a point that seems to have eluded you) to let people know what is going on. I don't think that they, or anyone else, deserve the kind of vitriol that you like to dish out.
Maybe I'll get kicked off this board, but I don't care. I'll stand right here in front of all the good people on this board and say you are wrong to talk the way you do. I, for one, am sick of it.
Cody
Just for the record, and so nobody twists this post into something I didn't mean, I'm glad Zarqawi is dead, and I'm glad he got it the way he did. He was a psychopathic serial killer who used religion to justify his murderous ways.

The death of Zagawi is great! But something to worry about is all his supporters out here. They may want to do something in retaliation for his death. They may even had plans.We need to work at getting all those next in line and not celebrate untill we get them all.

No need to go anywhere Cody. You're right. There needs to be balance to keep things in check. As far as zagawi's death goes good ridance but, to believe it will make any difference in the battle forget it. Trying to impose our idea of how a country or government should operate didn't work in korea, didn't work in vietnam and it aint gonna work in iraq. I have friends over there risking there lives daily. What little I'v heard from them (soliders on the ground) didnt seem like we were winning alot of hearts and minds over there.

oh, Kevin, you have such a mild and good tone about you lol.
2004 = 20 civilian deaths a day
2005 = 31 "
2006 = 36 "
3 years later and the U.S. and British still have to run police actions. The Iraqi's are loosers who will never be able to take care of themselves. In that respect the mission is a failure, a horrible failure.
Our troops win every battle, thats not the mission. The mission Kevin, what is the mission? 90% of all adult males in Iraq have military training and own their own AK for goodness sakes. 3 years! They can't fight! Oh my. We are gonna be there forever, and that my friend has always been the plan. The coffee is burning, wake up and smell it.
The Iraqi folks knew where this monster was. Why did we take him out? Why didn't they bring us his head on a stick? They all love us so much. You know the answer to that as well as I do.

Ok here's a few questions. If the Republicans and the press of the early 1940's had treated the president and the military fighting WW2 the same way today’s Democrats and press treat GW Bush and today’s military, would they have been heralded as great patriots or treated like traitors?
If antiwar politicians and the left wing press wanted to give aid and comfort to the terrorists what could they do that they are not doing already?
Does the fact that reporters are getting themselves killed in greater numbers than before make some sort of political point? If so, what?
If the US had followed the advice of the left wing and bugged out of Iraq a few years ago, who would be running the place now and what would their policies be? Would we be better or worse off?
I love listening to the left wingers talk about social responsibility and connectedness when it was they who abandoned South Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia to the mercy of the Communists in 1975 after our troops had won the war and a peace settlement with the North was agreed to in Paris. A few million Cambodians and at least a million Viet Namese paid with their lives for that victory of the American left
It was the American left that cautioned Clinton to stay out of Rwanda and let the Europeans dither about in Bosnia for over a year. Talk about “Never Again†doesn’t mean much when you won’t back it up.
JFK said something about bearing any burden and paying any price for freedom. What a load of crap. The left is unwilling to pay any price or bear any burden what so ever in the pursuit or defense of freedom. And everytime there is a burden to bear you can bet there will be a John Kerry or Murtha to demand that that burden be dropped and those who depend on our promises be abandoned and allowed to die or live under tyranny.
If the Holocaust was happening today I’m sure the left would want the UN to look into it maybe even demand sanctions. But as long as we weren’t directly attacked they would want us to stay out of it because “It’s not our country,†“They’ve always treated people that way,†“Let the Europeans handle it, it’s on their continent,†“What gives us the right to step in,†“We’re not the worlds policeman†or some other self serving blather.
Let’s insert the words “Jew’s†or “Black’s†where we so often hear the word “Arab’s†and consider how it sounds when you hear “Those Arab’s can’t help it, that’s just the way they are.†Or “All those Arab’s aren’t worth one American life.â€Â
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

Sorry Cody. However. You may just have to stay sick. The media is in this country today largely a disgrace. Your average run of the mill journalist working for MSNBC and or CNN or ABC and C (BS) is not fit to walk in my shadow three steps behind me on a good day. They just are not in my league. They are indeed "B"level Americans at best. Wannabes of the most inclement nature. Posers of the highest order. Not deserving of one iota of my respect.
Now there are a few good ones on FOX. At least they know what side to be on in a fight.
If any of these losers who call themselves journalists were to have behaved during WW2 as their modern counterparts have comported themselves now they would have been tarred and feathered and rode out on a rail.
Tar and feathers would be a good idea ...I am for it.

That statement is so true its frightening in its abject reality.
Last fall when I had the opportunity to visit Arlington and the JFK gravesite that very quote from one of his famous speeches is engraved in marble. I think that was something he believed in but is something that the current spawn of the devil that walk in his shadow and call themselves his equal would never begin to live up to. It takes a man like George Dubya Bush or his Father to live up to Kennnedy's ideal. Sad yet true. An excellent post.
I bow before your unequaled grasp of the argument.

Stick around Cody. There's really only a couple that seem incapable of intelligent discussion. It's kind of fun to watch them start spewing names and oaths when they have no other way to respond. Of course, you realize that it means that they've lost the argument and are just throwing tantrums to try to divert attention away from either their incompetence in debate or their indefensible positions..
P.S. I'm glad the S.O.B.s dead too.

General W. Westmoreland was widely quoted saying, "We have reached an important point, when the end begins to come into view," and in a televised news conference in late 1967, repeating the words of others about a "light at the end of the tunnel" to describe improved U.S. fortunes. Ten weeks later came the Tet Offensive.

Well Kevin, I'll give ya ONE THING dude! You sure know how to call a spade a spade, man!
And Cody?! Right on Brother! Well said!
I guess Larry and Kevin have never heard of Samuel Johnson(1709-1784...english author, critic and lexicographer), and/or one of his more famous observations...."Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel".
scoun-drel / n./....well, I don't think I need to explain the definition of this word to you gentlemen, right?!
Cheers,

(BTW...I'm going to coin a NEW word here...
su-per-scoun-drel"/ n. / true believers who needlessly demonize others who may not share their opinions...like ZARQAWI did)
And sorry to disappoint you gentlemen....but THAT'S IT for me on this freakin' subject.
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

I think this thread along with many others demonstrates how much division there is in the free world about the issues.
Only history will tell the tale of what worked and what didn't. The important thing to remember today is that we all come from different backgrounds and belief systems. This thread probably won't change anybodies mind on anything. I hope nobody takes it personally and develops a dislike for the person who typed their thoughts.
Nobody should ever feel they need to leave this great group over a thread.
The on topic issue seems to be agreed in that Zarquawi is dead and thats a good thing.
I try to aggravate one person a day. Today may be your day.

GREAT NEWS!!!! The story is that Al-Zarqawi was still alive but unconscious when he was discovered in the rubble and was put on a stretcher by the Iraqi police when they first arrived on the scene. When the coalition forces arrived a short while later, he woke up enough to recognize that we had the SOB and tried to roll off the stretcher to escape. I'm glad he died knowing he'd been caught and was conscious enough to hopefully suffer some of the same physical and psychological pain he had inflicted himself. It ain't much, I know, but it's SOMETHING.  I hope we can treat bin Laden to the same hospitality real soon. P.S. Alchohol is not legally available to U.S. troops stationed in Iraq, and is rationed (limited to two beers a day) on our bases in "support" countries like Qatar. I hope that these limitations were loosened a bit for the pilots directly involved in the strike. They certainly deserved more than "just a couple" for this one!

Ah...who gives a rats nest if a few liberals are stewing in their own cesspool. LIke I said and will repeat ad nauseum anytime something good happens for the good ole USA the libs will empty their proverbial bowels to rationalize it as being unimportant. When you care enough to diss your own country to the extent that the left does these days...well nothing surprises this good ole jingoist....nice to to see Dwight tweaking the definition to meet his own ends. More good news on the subject. My compatriots out at the Raytheon plant on the south side of Tucson are celebrating as it is believed that their Paveway 11 GBU-12 laser guided camel jockey killer may have been the silver bullet that nailed zirqweeerie to Paradise. I bet management gives em all a BBQ for that one. They make the guidance systems out there. Allah Be Praised.

JC,
Do you think he may have perhaps been "rolled" off the stretcher and that he died in a "blazing gun battle"? (e.g. gotten his head trampled on).

I should have entitled this thread, Bill Clinton let me down. Thrilled Zarqawi is gone. Tried to discuss this with a very liberal friend of mine. I asked him if our boy was going to get rewarded with the 70 virgins. He said, and I quote: "nah he gets a special place in hell right next to Donald Rumsfeld". Now, while I am not a huge Rummy fan, that quote tells you everything you need to know about important events in this country being jaded with political agendas. That is like trying to compare Hitler to Henry Knox. Jesus! Let's enjoy a fantastic victory, instead of making it a referendum on Bush for once. And it is a victory. 'Kay? If you cannot be objective enough to appreciate this a&& being eliminated without wrapping it in a political agenda, then bugger you. This is precisely why I left the Democratic party several years ago. It is a joke. They have let this American down, and I will not be back anytime soon. Actually, that is not completely true, because I like Chris Dodd. If he gets a nomination over some other idiots like Clinton, Gore, and Kerry, I could come back provided that McCain is not nominated. Until then, adios. p.s. this is just my opinion p.s.1 Don't even get me started on the Tet Offensive.

Okay, I'll tread lightly a little further.
What is the difference between the Tet Offensive and the Battle of the Bulge?

Bedouin: While that's not a bad scenario to consider, I think it's amazing that he survived for even a short time at all after the building he was holed up in was hit by a 500 pounder ("pounder" is an ironic word in this cae, dontcha think?). After seeing the videos and the rubble, I'm surprised there ws even enough of him to recognize. Luckily, there was, and it proved conclusively that he is now history. The problem I see with the whole "40 virgins" thing is that virgins (IMHO) are generally not as much fun as the alternative. The other downside with virgins is that they always want you to meet the parents. Finally (I'm on a roll here.), there is usually a good reason that a virgin is a virgin.  Maybe, just maybe, the best revenge we can have with Zarqawi is that the whole "40 virgins" myth is really TRUE. Serves him right!
