I thought he was the person responsible for all the ultra-violence everywhere in Iraq and elsewhere and that once he was pushing up daisys everything was going to be copacetic?

Seems like things have gotten steadily worse since we supposedly dropped a bomb on his head but he still photographed well in High Definition.

Don't hear much about his replacement either since it was reported that he has been in an Egyptian jail for years.

Truth really is stranger than fiction.

Sounds like a script for a B movie.

1. Violence has GONE up. What you're forgetting of course is that the number two man is still at large
All 50,000 of him.

3. Looks like..
.. Zarqawi (aka: Negroponte) was better at training his 'troops' better than the stated intentions of Bushco's training of the Iraqi 'security' forces.

All too murky and fucked up to figure out.

4. We've had several adjective
changes...we had dead-enders, we had Saddam loyalists, foreign fighters, terrorists, enemy combatants, insurgents, AlQaeda in Iraq, militias, and I think we're now on to 'sectarian violence' with aid from Iran and Syria. I hope there aren't too many more.
