Hey you know that STUNT the Military pulled off last week...

Well The Washington Post finally prints an article telling us the POSITIVE impact of Al Zarqawi's death and what an upset the US military has caused.

Guido Steinberg, an expert on Islamic radicalism at the German Institute for International and Security Affairs in Berlin, said other groups of foreign fighters that kept a loose alliance with Zarqawi, such as Ansar al-Sunna, might turn away from al-Qaeda in Iraq now that he is gone. "It's a great loss for the these jihadi networks," said Steinberg, who served as a counterterrorism adviser to Gerhard Schroeder when he was chancellor of Germany. "I don't think there is any person in Iraq able to control this network the way Zarqawi did. It's very decentralized. He was the only person in Iraq who could provide the glue."

And another blog points out how "NOT Meaningless" what happened last week really is... We need to keep doing more stunts like this...and we thought we were there for the fun of it...oh and the oil which we still pay for.

Every time I fill up my tank, I wonder where the oil is in this "blood for oil" scheme.
