Freaking Awesome!!

Zarquawi dead.

Yes!

Thanks to my commenters for letting me know. Summer and kids keep getting into my reading time.

What makes this even better was that Zarquawi's location was given to us by Iraqi intelligence. We should brace ourselves for some revenge killings. But chopping the head off the snake (so to speak) will hopefully prove to be the beginning of the end for these monsters.

*And how does the msm choose to cover this awesome news? NRO gives us a taste:

"It's sad that within minutes of announcing Abu Musab al-Zarqawi's death, the network morning shows were already carrying criticism of the Bush administration. Not only did NBC invite Sen. Joe Biden so he could attack Bush incompetence (funny day for that!), ABC's Bill Weir reminded the audience that Zarqawi beheaded American Nicholas Berg, and then replayed Berg's left-wing dad saying at the time that he had no desire for his son's killers to be killed. Weir then reported that he spoke to Berg's father this morning, and he condemned the Zarqawi killing as part of an endless cycle of retribution."

Sad and sick. Really.

Update: A timeline of Zarqawi's atrocities. Also, Hugh Hewitt tells us: "Prime Minister Malaki followed the announcement of the end of Zarqawi with the completion of the cabinet process."

As Hugh says..."A very good day in Iraq."
