Finally Something to rejoice about in Iraq

al-Zarqawi has been killed by an airstirke. It's about damn time. Below is something borrowed from www.msnbc.com

I added the last quote for kicks.

I so wish we weren't at war and that we weren't over there at all. I support our Country, I support our troops, and the US still kicks ass. But Man oh man, do i HATE OUR LEADER.


Following are quotes attributed to Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, al Qaeda’s leader in Iraq, whose death was announced by Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki on Thursday. Most are from statements and tapes distributed via the Internet.

September 2004: “The mujahadeen will give America a taste of the degradation you have inflicted on the Iraqi people” -- statement accompanying a video of the beheading of U.S. hostage Eugene Armstrong.

Jan. 20, 2005: “The fruits of jihad come after much patience and a lengthy stay in the battlefield...which could last months and years.”

Jan. 23, 2005 (A week before Iraq’s parliamentary election) “We have declared a bitter war against the principle of democracy and all those who seek to enact it.”

April 29, 2005: “We promise God that the dog...Bush will not enjoy peace of mind and that his army will not have a good life as long as our hearts are beating.”

May 18, 2005: “The killing of infidels by any method including martyrdom (suicide) operations has been sanctified by many scholars even if it means killing innocent Muslims...The shedding of Muslim blood...is allowed in order to avoid the greater evil of disrupting jihad.”

July 5, 2005: “We declare that the Iraqi army is an apostate, agent army allied to the crusaders and came to destroy Islam and Muslims. We will fight it.”

Sept. 11, 2005: (Referring to Hurricane Katrina) “The storm that hit the United States was the result of every mother or father’s prayer, or an orphaned son, or a woman whose honor was taken away in Iraq or Afghanistan.”

Sept. 14, 2005: “Al Qaida organization in Iraq...has declared war against Shiites in all of Iraq.”

April 25, 2006 - “America has realized today that its tanks, armies and Shiite agents will not be able to end the battle with the mujahadeen.”

June 7th, 2006 - "That sounds like a....oh shit.........."
