A Telling Letter.

The letter from Al-Zarqawi to Al-Zarahiri makes one thing clear. American military leaving Iraq will not end the bloodshed or the desire of Al-Zarqawi to rule with his perverted Islamic faith.

"And it is that the mujahedeen must not have their mission end with the expulsion of the Americans from Iraq, and then lay down their weapons, and silence the fighting zeal. We will return to having the secularists and traitors holding sway over us. Instead, their ongoing mission is to establish an Islamic State, and defend it, and for every generation to hand over the banner to the one after it until the Hour of Resurrection."

It is clear that we simply cannot tuck tail and run. We must finish this fight.
