When are your elections again?
Seems to me that the Zarqawi death is......well.........convenient.

ESPECIALLY when all the media is hyping it to the max. And more troubling for me is the statement of George W. Bush.....stating that special ops DELIVERED JUSTICE by killing Zarqawi.

Delivered justice......that is something that could of come out of the mouth of Bin Laden himself. Sorry - but this pacifist does not equate killing someone with delivering justice - not even Zarqawi.

And it remains to be seen what this will do for the civil war that is percolating within Iraq. When I think of the tens of thousands of Iraqi civilians that have been killed, the thousands of US troops that have been killed or maimed for life - when I consider the untold billions of US dollars spent on this war - it seems to me that killing Zarqawi was a very very very expensive escapade. And because of the way the war was waged, because of atrocities committed by allied troops, and American troops - the line remains hopelessly blurred who stands on the side of right and truth. Who stands on the side of humanity?

So they got Al Zarqawi - big whoopy deal. I mean really - it only cost 1/2 a trillion dollars........George's justice......
