18. This would take too long and I don't have time as I have to leave

I'll just say this, 'Al Zarqawi' was certainly as close to being fictitious as you can get. It was admitted by Gen. Kimmel finally when people began to wonder how it was that this guy was nothing more than a common thief, (after a few real journalists began to wonder how he came to rise from his many deaths so many times} pretty ignorant, illiterate airc, and with zero following.

There was even talk of the US having invented him, or giving him extraordinary, fictitious powers that he did not possess, being illegal as US laws forbid the use of psyops on the American people, which is basically what Zarqawi was. And basically what Kimmel admitted.

Were you not around when all this was going on? That wiki page badly needs editing btw.

Lots of fiction surrounding the Iraq War, but if you weren't following it all at the time, I guess you can't be blamed for not knowing just how many lies were told.

Al Zarqawi was finally 'killed' for about the sixth time as the lies were beginning to take on 'fairy tale' proportions and few were believing them even here in the US anymore. And they didn't resurrect him anymore. The Iraqis actually never did believe the stories.

He existed, but he had no 'network' and was certainly not a big Al Queda guy. Just more of Bush era propaganda.

Have to run, try searching for Al Zarqawi killed again, or with 'wooden leg' and 'cheney' etc. Really have to go.
