Re: Zarqawi is Dead! <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>BAGHDAD, Iraq - Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the al-Qaida leader inIraq who waged a bloody campaign of suicide bombings and beheadings of hostages, has been killed in a precision airstrike, U.S. and Iraqi officials said Thursday. It was a long-sought victory in the war in Iraq.ADVERTISEMENTAl-Zarqawi and seven aides were killed Wednesday evening in a remote area 30 miles northeast of Baghdad in the volatile province of Diyala, just east of the provincial capital of Baqouba, Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki said."Al-Zarqawi was eliminated," al-Maliki said.At the White House,President Bush hailed the killing, saying it is "a severe blow to al-Qaida and it is a significant victory in the war on terror."But he cautioned: "We have tough days ahead of us in Iraq that will require the continuing patience of the American people."Al-Qaida in Iraq confirmed al-Zarqawi's death and vowed to continue its "holy war," according to a statement posted on a Web site."We want to give you the joyous news of the martyrdom of the mujahed sheik Abu Musab al-Zarqawi," said the statement, signed by "Abu Abdel-Rahman al-Iraqi," identified as the deputy "emir" or leader of al-Qaida in Iraq."The death of our leaders is life for us. It will only increase our persistence in continuing holy war so that the word of God will be supreme."Video from the scene of the attack showed children scrambling over a flattened jumble of cinderblocks, concrete reinforcing bars, blankets, blue plastic bowls and other debris. A pickup truck was scorched and crushed.Two young members of the crowd showed the camera a child's sandal, a backpack with a teddy bear on it and a stuffed animal. The site sat across a dirt road from a grove of palm trees.</div>LINKThis is great!! :yess:
Re: Zarqawi is Dead! It doesn't matter though, someone will just take his place and nothing will change. Our government and other people will praise how great this is but it means nothing.
Re: Zarqawi is Dead! It wont really change anything over there, but its clearly a good thing that hes out of the picture. Not sure how much it will end up doing overall, but it obviously cant be considered negative..
Re: Zarqawi is Dead! Yup, they say they already pretty much know who's next in line (some Egyptian guy) and they're already on the hunt for him.
Re: Zarqawi is Dead! lol this doesnt really make things any better - it'll probably have a worse affect.
Re: Zarqawi is Dead! Wow, I cant believe you guys are impressed with yourselves for killing human lives.

This guy is a terrorist, he has killed countless numbers of people, you think he deserves to live?
Re: Zarqawi is Dead! I don't get happy over anyones death and I think thats what CB4 was meaning as well.
Re: Zarqawi is Dead! Not happy about the death of a person, rather happy about the fact that this is a positive step towards rooting out terrorism.

And why would the troops just go out and kill him like that instantly?

He is a criminal who doesnt respect life whether it be his own or others. I dont think people who end the lives of other people deserve to live.
Re: Zarqawi is Dead! They deserve a proper trial. Murdering a murderer just isnt right. I dont care how many people he killed. That doesnt make it right for the U.S. to jus gun him down like that.

He flat out does not deserve to live. Im not happy because of the fac that he is dead, but moreso that the world is a better place without this person because of the things he has done to others..
Re: Zarqawi is Dead! So if a guy killed a bunch of people in Canada, and some of them were people you knew and loved. U would want to give him a trial? What if he gets out and kills more people?
Re: Zarqawi is Dead! THE f*cking WESTERN MEDIA IS NOT TRUTHFUL.AMERICANS DO CRIME ALSO, WAY MORE THAN OTHER COUNTRIES...WHY DON'T WE KILL AMERICANS!?God, you stupid son of a bitc*
Re: Zarqawi is Dead! Exactly what Wade2Shaq said, if you knew someone who was involved and you lost a loved one you would want the person to see the proper punishment. I think a life is a life no matter who you are and nobody has the right to take another life. If you kill someone, you dont deserve to live in my opinion..
Re: Zarqawi is Dead! I guess those innocent children and people that died in the airstrike deserved to die too, right?And if you don't deserve to live after you kill someone, should the military personnel responsible for the airstrike be killed because of the innocent lives lost during the airstrike?
