You apparently are confused between Ayman al-Zawahri, Osama's number two (still loose in Pakistan) and Abu Musab al-Zarqawi petty Jordanian radical associated with the tiny Ansar al-Islam group abcnews.go.com rotten.com

>News reports have put him close to Bin Laden. Recently he has been called the number 2 man in Al Qaeda. It just isn't the case, though. There's all of one letter tying him to Osama, and I really question the authenticity of that letter, and even if the letter is authentic, its tone was one that didn't seem to indicate a close relationship between the two. Ayman al-Zawahiri is the #2 man in Al-Qaida, BTW. Also, regarding a point you made earlier, Zarqawi's group did have its bases in northern Iraq. However, that part of Iraq was not under Saddam's control. -Z
