But I also know that this is exactly the kind of thing that will aid other terrorist leaders in escalating attacks and recruiting more members.

And for clarification: No, I do not wish to see an escalation in the frequency of terrorist attacks or an increase in members of the insurgency. I feel like I have to say that because many people on the other side of the aisle view critical comments as support for the enemy. Hence my "ignorant" comment earlier.



And come on, man. Did you even read the article? It was al-Zarqawi's older brother who said he was now a martyr, not al-Jazeera. I'm not one to defend al-Jazeera's journalistic integrity, but I will call bullshit when someone is trying to mislead.
Howdy bhallg2k,

Well I'm happy to hear,that zarqawi's death,doesn't frustrate you and that you don't support terrorism,as a means to an end..that's very encouraging to hear

Would you do me a favor and take a poll of yer liberal friends and see if any of them are frustrated over zarqawi's death ? It's pretty much a given,that the liberal MSM,is very reluctant to report any good news from Iraq,for fear that Bush will look better..and to a lesser degree,that our soldiers will look better.

It's just that when I hear a far-left nutcase,like prof. ward churchhill,declare that the victims of 9/11/01,were all "little eichmanns" that deserved to die..that I start to think such "ignorant" thoughts..if I'm wrong-then I'd like to know better..as I don't want to be "ignorant".

Have a good one ! :stoned:
