"Look Upon My Works, Ye Mighty, and..." BLAMMO

I don't have in depth, new insight into Zarqawi having been blown up last night.

I cannot bring fresh ideas to the GWoT, or upstage pointy headed policy people. (Not only do they have PhDs, and are therefore certified smart, there are also more analysts and policy wankers -whoops, policy wonks- in the media than zombies in a Romero flick.)

I can't end-run commentators and talking heads on the scene. Or at least within 100 miles of the scene, which is more often the case.

I will simply share my appreciation for the event: the media darling of Iraqi terrorism, with blood on his own hands, was brought down not in a hail of gunfire as he heroically stormed the barricades, or as he held the line against certian death while his loyal minions escaped.

He ended under a pile of dusty rubble, sold out by someone close to him.

I like that.

Myself, I was sort of hoping they'd have got him while he was on the throne.

Trying unsuccessfully, to drop the kids off at the pool.

And getting a phone call, right before the explosion of relief.

From a guy who gave the US his coordinates.

While all the other guys who gave the US his coordinates just left voicemail messages.

Patton,
Not bad, but I'm skeptical that Zarqawi and his ilk have that much first-person experience with plumbing.

Patton, that's too close to how the King left this world, and was carried straight up from Graceland to heaven. Zarqawi doesn't deserve that kind of exit.
