| US fought propaganda war with Zarqawi in Iraq |

| What is truly amazing about all of this is that this is Pincus and even he isn't trying to deny that Zarqawi was in Baghdad in 2002. From the moment President Bush introduced him to the American people in October 2002, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi served a crucial purpose for the administration, providing a tangible focus for its insistence that Iraqi President Saddam Hussein was linked to the al-Qaeda terrorist network responsible for the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. After the invasion that toppled Hussein, and the subsequent rise of the insurgency against occupying U.S. forces, Zarqawi's presence in Iraq was cited as proof that the uprising was fomented by al-Qaeda-backed "foreign fighters." |

| #5 Yeah, but it was the US govt. vs (Zarqawi + the NY Times, LA Times, Wash. Post, Time magazine, Newsweek, CBS, ABC, NBC, and PBS). |

| #4 Poor little liberal bastards. This is a big blow to them. They had put so much hope in the failure of Iraq. So much for them to feel bad about these days: Sadaam deposed and humiliated and then the country has successful elections and goes democratic! But now the great liberal hope that Zarqawi could kill enough innocent people to destroy our will and send our troops home in disgrace has been dealt a mortal blow. It's been a difficult week for liberals. |

| #2 All part of the liberal dribble. Bush invented Zarq and "magnified" his image, blah, blah, blah |
