Well, the latest report is that Zarqawi is okay and that he is still running the insurgency. Donald Rumsfeld this morning compared Zarqawi to Hitler in his bunker. I have another analogy. This stinks of the old Soviet news cycle. It would leak out that a Soviet leader was gravely ill. Then we'd be told by the Soviets, "Nyet, nyet, our comrade is in perfect health." And that would be the public story until a new leader would be chosen, at which time we'd be informed of the former leader's sudden death and of his chosen successor.
Al Qaeda is no USSR, but I wouldn't be surprised if Zarqawi were already dead.
Hat Tip
I nearly forgot to add this-I owe Wigderson Library & Pub a royalty for the use of 'Zarqawi's owie.'
