Cole wrote something to the effect that Zarqawi wasn't really a genuine member of Al-Qaeda and his death was no big deal. I guess he didn't anticipate that Bin Laden was planning to issue that touching eulogy.

We are all "grinding our axes," aren't we. :>) And when our predictions don't match up with reality, we try to ignore them.

My classic example of being wrong was my discussion with Bilow on the FAG thread about the Iraqi insurgency. He was wrong on most other things, but right on that. I could use the "stopped clock" analogy, but I have to give the devil his due. He called that event. And he was the only one on the thread that did so.
