Al-Qaeda has a serious network in Iraq
2004-06-06
Al-Qaida is spreading its tentacles in Iraq and has "a serious" network in that country, says U.S. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld. In an interview with CNN Saturday, Rumsfeld said: "The al-Qaida network in Iraq is a serious network. It’s a global network." He said al-Qaida was also recruiting volunteers from various parts of the world for carrying out terrorist acts in Iraq. Rumsfeld said Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, who he believes heads the network of foreign terrorists in Iraq, has been affiliated with al-Qaida for sometime. He said Zarqawi may not have taken the oath to Osama Bin Laden but "that’s a technicality." "I mean, clearly Zarqawi has been an affiliate with the al-Qaida organization."

#3  When Zarqawi is caught nothing would say we're serious more than him being publically drawn and quartered. That would give me a warm and fuzzy feeling.
Maybe its time Rummy let them know the gloves are off. Round up as many as possible and give them the General Pershing treatment.Let a few of them drag stories of that back to their mud hovels.
Man I hate those guys.
