(CBS/AP) Mourners vowed revenge and perseverance Friday at the funeral of the leader of the Sunni Arab revolt against al Qaeda militants who was assassinated just 10 days after meeting with President Bush in Iraq's Anbar province.

More than 1,500 mourners marched along the highway near the home of Abdul-Sattar Abu Risha, who was killed along with two bodyguards and a driver Thursday by a bomb hidden near his house, just west of Ramadi.

Scores of Iraqi police and U.S. military vehicles lined the route to protect the procession as it followed the black SUV carrying the sheik's Iraqi-flag draped coffin.

"We will take our revenge," the mourners chanted along the six-mile route to Risha's family cemetery, many of them crying. "We will continue the march of Abu Risha."

I just don't care anymore I just want this to end. I want our guys home and I feel terrible because I know that we destroyed Iraq. And yes if we leave its going to be a huge mess that will probably blamed on the Democrats. Am I being selfish to just want our guys home? I know that I for one didn't want to go into Iraq in the first place. Does that get me off the hook for what will happen when we pull out? OMG I am just sick to my stomach today.

Ahh the "Smell of Napalm in the Morning"

I'd find a Shiite who wants to become a martyr and have him claim he was behind the assassination and got help from Shiite groups.

Then watch the shit really hit the fan.
