al-Zarqawi Killed?
The Jerusalem Post is reporting that Abu Musab al-Zarqawi was killed today.
At least one Arab television media outlet reported that Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the head of the al-Qaida in Iraq, was killed in Iraq on Sunday afternoon when eight terrorists blew themselves up in the in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul.The unconfirmed report claimed that the explosions occurred after coalition forces surrounded the house in which al-Zarqawi was hiding.
While we can not be certain at this point that the news is true, it would represent a major symbolic and tactical victory for coalition forces.

If true, it would be the first time I was glad to hear about a suicide bombing.
