Somehow I doubt that many people, Iraqi or otherwise, will be mourning his death. He lived by the sword and died by the sword. Quote:

Now all we have to do is wait to see who takes his place so we can kill that guy... then see who's next so we can kill that guy... then see who's next so we can kill that guy...
As long as there are these sorts of radicals out there, we'll be dealing with a hydra. Not that I think there's any alternative at this point, but I don't think killing Zarweenie or Bin-hidin or any of the 'leaders' will have more than a temporary affect. |

Good riddance. It's at least a symbolic victory and I hope the coalition manage to make the most out of it.

How long until someone claims he's a martyr?
In any case, I'm not sad to see his existence ended.

Well the death of this man has another ripple effect, a positive one.
Word of the death of a top al-Qaida leader in Iraq quickly rippled through the ranks of Canadian and coalition soldiers in Afghanistan, boosting the morale of troops fighting their own battle against insurgents. http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/Canada/2...621017-cp.html What this means is that the troops in Afghanistan and Iraq are fighting a common enemy. Terrorist!!! So a victory in one location means something to people in the other as this piece of crap caused problems in the other country as well. I hope his 70 virgins have the faces of bulldogs.
