I didn't see any Iraqis on that list of terrorists. Red herring. This was about oil, not terrorism.

Well, you'll find some of them on the lists for the terrorism they're perpetrating now against the Iraqi people..

And you'll find a hell a bunch of NON-IRAQIs on that list over here killing Iraqis too..

And many of the Sunnis are starting to get fed up with Zarqawi..

The question we'll face is whether Zarqawi will be replaced by Ansar Al Sunnah, which is far more indigenous to Iraq, rather than consisting of foreigners.

But that will be a question the Iraqi government will have to answer..

And even more important than "oil", it's about the survival of democractic ideals and denying a fanatical and militant enemy the ability to control our economies.,

Yeah; how many times have we killed the number 2 guy? 15?

Only once that I've seen, Abu Azzam.. the Amir of Baghdad.. And given the population and economic power of this city, it makes sense that most of us believe he held considerable power that placed him 2nd to AMZ.

But we've schwacked a few of his lieutenants as well, people who have known AMZ for years, since his days in Afghanistan.
