“Conditions of the jail was humane. There were rumors in this country about that. It was wrong. What we have seen was OK,” said Abdul Jabar Sabhet of the Interior Ministry.

Well, it’s about time someone has said this lately, especially with all the critics of the prison up in a frenzy over the suicides of three prisoners only a few days ago.

Being a Marine myself the cartoon really doesn’t offend me.  I see this cartoonist as just another half-witted dumb ass sitting in a small dark room reading every negative headline and opinion as if they were Cliff Notes and taking them in as fact.

Days after the death of Al-Zarqawi, President Bush visits
Iraq.  The Lefties think it’s another aircraft carrier moment.

• Karl Rove is Not Going to be Prosecuted 

To the dismay of some that have been writing about Karl Rove for some time now; He's not going to be prosecuted in the CIA leak case.

• Suicides in Guantanamo 

Should the Guantanamo Bay Prison be closed?  Critics of the prison think the recent suicides, add to the reasons of why it should be closed.

A group of Kossacks (members of the Daily Kos a popular liberal blog) decided to hold a tin foil hat competition during the highly publicized Yearly Kos convention, which was being broadcast live in Las Vegas, Nevada. 

Was it meant as a harmless joke referring to the idea that the Yearly Kos was going to be like a Star Trek convention, or was it just a small group of people with too much to drink and one really bad idea?  Honestly, I don't know and it doesn't really matter now, because the buzz on the net is: 'What the hell were they thinking?'

As for the Iraqi civilians being killed unjustly by U.S. forces; well, besides being a completely different issue than the death of an Iraqi terrorist that ordered bombings and beheadings of innocent Iraqi civilians on a daily basis, it's not the President that must answer at this time.  It's the men that performed those actions that must answer.

While I'll personally rejoice in his absence from existence, I think we would be disillusioned to think that his death is going to have anything but a short lived since of accomplishment before other terrorists, not-unlike Al-Zarqawi will eventually show their twisted little heads.

Sure, others will hail him as a martyr, but that makes him no different than any other bomb toting terrorist scum that has ever destroyed the lives of innocents. They too are remembered by their own people as martyrs. 

Eventhough, the hype over his death will sell papers and clog the airwaves, his importance to the fight against terrorism is only a symbolic one. And one that is only symbolic to us, at that. 

Early this morning it was announced that Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi, the Al-Qaeda leader in Iraq was killed in a percision air-strike, 30 miles northeast of Baghdad, by U.S. forces.

While U.S. forces rejoice in the death of the vile terrorist leader, other members of Al-Qaeda in Iraq are already celebrating his death as a martyr. Read more here and here
