Al-Qaida in Iraq's al-Zarqawi 'terminated'

Finally! As reported here, "Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, al-Qaida’s leader in Iraq who led a bloody campaign of suicide bombings and kidnappings, has been killed in an air strike, U.S. and Iraqi officials said Thursday, adding that his identity was confirmed by fingerprints and a look at his face."

With help from Iraqi citizens and Jordanian intelligence operatives in Iraq, the US has struck a major blow against the terrorist organization al-Qaida in Iraq, killing one of the most brutal terrorist thugs this world has ever seen.

Although I don't glory in the death of a human being, the death of this man is very good news, both for Iraq and the general global war on terrorism.
