Hi ho the witch is dead (or is it Ding Dong?)

It's probably a sin to celabrate over the death of anyone, even
your enemy, but screw it, yeeeaaaaaaahhhhhh!

General Casey said an American air strike had targeted "a single dwelling in a wooded area surrounded by very dense palm forest" eight kilometers, or five miles, north of the city of Baquba, and that "precision munitions" had been used, a phrase that usually refers to laser-guided bombs or missiles. An unconfirmed report on Iraq's state-owned television channel, al-Iraqiya, said the attack had been carried out by American attack helicopters.

Mr. Zebari said the American military had been following Zarqawi "very closely" in recent weeks. He said Zarqawi had been vulnerable ever since he had lost his refuge in Anbar province, which is largely in the hands of Sunni insurgents. "He had been forced out of Anbar" after Sunnis there "joined hands with their Iraqi brothers," Mr. Zebari said.

Fuller details of the raid were expected to be given at an American military briefing at 4 p.m. local time, 8 a.m. Eastern time.

Much better than capturing him, we don't have to watch his trial
for the next 4 years.

I pose the same question I asked Al this morning.

Should we all go outside a ululate and pump our fists in the air now?

Anyone got a video cam handy? We can send the tape to al-Jazeera

holiday inn)

i approve of the ullulation(sp?), but i thought only the women in arabic countries did that.men are supposed to shoot their automatic weapons into the air recklessly.
