Zarqawi was already being pushed out of the mix in Iraq...or so they said a couple weeks ago. This one death does not push us over but a woman and a child died over this and its still inexcusable. We have become what we hate and this death does not make me excited or happy for my country, it makes me more ashamed to be apart of it. Look at how far we have come just to kill one man, whats the benefit? Bush's poll numbers may go up and gas prices may go down, but i am not excited nor thrilled by any of this, i just don't care. It feels like the media keeps trying to push this down our throat like it was a great victory. I don't consider it a great victory for this country, i consider it a defeat that we would make one man such a focal point for a huge conflict. Its sad and pathetic.
