Not to mention how before the war Zarqawi was used as evidence of a Saddam/al Qaida collaboration which was a bogus claim...

Great, he's dead and it's a nagging mission we can check off the list...but the notion that this is a game changing event isn't supported by the facts as have been reported by our own military.

Beheading American civilians is small involvement in violence? And like it or not when a field operative in a leadership position is eliminated the game changes. What is it with Liberals trying to down play every signifigant American success in Iraq?
