As I had predicted, the round up of Zarqawi top aides over the last few weeks was like a trail of bread crumbs to the ultimate goal: U.S. and Iraqi forces zeroed in on Abu Musab al-Zarqawi over the past two weeks, tracking his movements and missing him at least once with an attempted strike. […]

How do I know?  They open their mouths: Some Democrats, breaking ranks from their leadership, today said the death of terrorist leader Abu Musab Zarqawi in Iraq was a stunt to divert attention from an unpopular and hopeless war. “This is just to cover Bush’s [rear] so he doesn’t have to answer” for Iraqi civilians […]

Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the mastermind behind hundreds of bombings, kidnappings and beheadings in Iraq, was killed Wednesday evening by an air strike northwest of Baghdad, U.S. and Iraqi officials said […]

Reader JWM provided the example argument which could bring the conservative coalition back together on immigration and the law.
