Poll question: How did Zarq REALLY croak?
Edited on Fri Jun-09-06 09:02 PM by Jim Sagle
The official line is that he was wounded (scratched, actually) by the 500-lb bombs and died of his wounds afterwards, in Iraqi custody.

A supposedly more cynical view is that he was wounded in the bombing and the Iraqis then killed him to avoid an inconvenient public trial.

My view is that he was killed and then refrigerated several years ago and defrosted for the occasion. The civilians were bombed as a cover story - and maybe also for w's amusement.

As Bill O says, what say you?

2. He's Still Alive
Look, I don't know for sure that he is alive -- but I sure as hell don't know -- for sure -- that he is dead.

All I know is that the lackey press and the corrupt, Bush regime cabal is TELLING US that Al Zarqawi is dead.

Yes, I've seen the pictures.

But does anyone hear doubt that those pictures might have been faked by an administration eager to boost its approval ratings by showing how macho we are and what a "good job" we are doing over in Iraq???!!!

Never -- NEVER EVER -- believe a word of what * or any of his corrupt regime cabal gang of thugs -- including his thugs with military uniforms and his thugs who "report" the "news" -- tell you! NEVER!!!

5. Which Zarqawi?
Is it the little skinny one-legged dude prancing around in slow motion while wearing his pirate costume?

Or is it the big fat ugly mofo with all legs intact who was identified to us a while back as Zarqawi?

I get confused which one is which.

6. His leg grew back, his prominent forearm tattoos disappeared!
Magic!!!

I have NO IDEA what the truth is. None, whatsoever. But any thinking person has to question all the inconsistencies they've put out over time.

7.  a couple of bombs
I don't find it all that suprising that being in the vicinity of two 500 lb bombs turns out to be fatal.

9. two 500 lb bombs
which should have mangled his body to smithereens. Then the cement house caved in on him, but this fool must have been wearing protective armor as he only got just a few scratches from the deal. But he did get to have his picture taken, framed and displayed on national TV...and with his leg intact.

10. It's the classic response of the powerless.
And of course we're all powerless now.

11. What about the Jordanians?
Early on they were mentioned. Now, it's Iraqi this and Iraqi that.
Maybe they caught him, beat him, and turned him over.
