#1 AP sez:
"In Mosul, 225 miles northwest of Baghdad, Iraqi officials said police and U.S. soldiers surrounded a house before dawn Saturday after reports that al-Qaida in Iraq members were inside, said Brig. Said Ahmed al-Jubouri, a Mosul police spokesman.

As a fierce gunbattle broke out, three insurgents detonated explosives and killed themselves to avoid capture. Five more died fighting, while four police officers also were killed. Al-Jubouri said officials were attempting to identify the dead insurgents."

#3 Yep, this is just more clear evidence that we are losing the war. Boy that Murtha really is on target. What a friggin maroon.

Although, wouldn't it be just too perfect, in a Rovian sort of way, to have Al Zarq confirmed killed the day after the dem's in Congress showed themselves to be spineless f-ing wimps.

We are winning this war. The president has to come out and state that clearly with the obvious evidence that is out there to back it up. Show to dem's and the MSM for the moonbat traitors that they are.

#4 Here's hoping. Nailing Zarq would be some welcome news here at home and especially in Jordan. I'd love to see how the Arab world would spin their joy over this killer being caught against their wish for his terrorism to continue. They'd blow a gasket just trying to compose the headline.

Hooray, Zarq is dead! Boy, will we miss him ... [kablammo!]
