It looks suspicious in a way since all these murder investigations are going on mainly with different incidents involving Marines & now this comes along to spin the war in a positive direction. This is not what I am saying, it's just what some are saying & will inevitably say. The noose had been tightening for around ten days now as the reward went from 1 to 25 million & he was nearly killed a few days ago too. Supposedly, a Jordanian (where al-Z was from) that was recently jailed gave up the safe house & we were able to get the homicidal zealot this time. Lately al-Z had been marginalized into leading foreign fighters because supposedly his tactics were proving too shocking for the average Iraqi to get behind & of course the insurgency will continue, of course we shouldn't even be over there in the first place but nothing is going to change the fact that we are, so yeah, al-Zarqawi's death is a victory & one that will certainly boost some morale among our troops.
