QUOTE Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the infamous leader of al-Qa'eda in Iraq, has been "terminated" in an American air strike, the Iraqi prime minister has announced.
It was reported that Zarqawi was killed in the city of Baquba at 7.00 pm local time, in a joint operation involving Jordanian intelligence, US intelligence and American special operations forces. This post has been edited by woody: Jun 8 2006, 03:33 AM -------------------- |

The military briefing that was on CNN had some interesting information.
The general doing the briefing said that no Iraqi forces were involved and that very little informant information was used. Special forces tracked Zarqawi's religious advisor and he ended up in the same house as Zarqawi. They then realized a big meeting was going on and they thought Zarqawi was in the house. An airstrike was called in and took out the house. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

some interesting information came up when i googled "al-zarqawi dead"
written on June 2: FALLUJAH SHEIKH SAYS AL-ZARQAWI DIED ON FRIDAY http://www.adnki.com/index_2Level.php?cat=...173437230&par=0 written Sept. 2005: Cleric says al-Zarqawi died long ago http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/735...080950DF180.htm written sometime before today: Abu Musab al-Zarqawi: The Dead Voice of "al Qaeda" in Iraq http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/zarqawi_woodenleg.html so hmmm, could he have been dead already? was it really reported that he was injured JUST last week, and that Rumsfeld warned other neighbouring countries not to give him medical help? -------------------- ![]() |
