"Zarqawi is part of a story and this story will not end when he is finished," said Dhia Majid, a university professor, whose brother, a pediatrician and his wife, a pharmacist, were shot dead in western Baghdad last summer. "It's not Iraq, it's a slaughterhouse."

The skepticism springs from how Iraqis see the violence here. Mr. Zarqawi is part of a larger galaxy of gangs and criminal groups that kill and kidnap with virtual impunity as the state watches helplessly. In the past year, the killing has shifted from spectacular suicide bombings, often attributed to Mr. Zarqawi, to assassinations, kidnappings and other criminal violence, and many Iraqis say they are now more afraid of the latter.
