al-Qaeda in Iraq Denounces Claims that Zarqawi is Deceased
2005-05-27
Today, May 26, 2005, the Information Section of al-Qaeda in Iraq, through "its own special media channel (broadcasting) which is known to Muslims by the name Abu Maysara al-Iraqi," denies all claims, analyses, and statements that "were embraced by others, whether falsely delivered or concluded" about the recent report of injuries to al-Qaeda in Iraq leader, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.

The message, which follows media reports that Zarqawi had died and appointed Abu Hafs al-Qarni as the acting leader, refutes all such news "about appointing he who is named "Abu Hafs," or any other name. Abu Maysara al-Iraqi states that the al-Qaeda's Information Section "only announced the injuries of our honorable Sheikh, in order to prove our credibility and for our brothers to be rest assured after what was disseminated that our Sheikh was killed."
"He's dead, Jim!"
"Lies! All lies! He ain't dead!"
"He's all blue, and his tongue's hanging out!"
"He does that all the time!"

#7  Sung to "Pore Jud is Daid" from "Oklahoma!"

Pore Zaq is daid,
Zaqawi is daid,
All gather 'round his corpse now and cry
He had a jihadi soul
And he wasn't very old
Oh why did such a feller have to die?

Pore Zaq is daid
Zaqawi is daid,
He's lookin' oh so peaceful and serene

(And serene!)

The virgins got him now
Pouring wine and peeling grapes
His fingernails have never been so clean!

(Spoken)
Then the Imam'd get up and he'd say:

(Chanting)
Folks, we are gathered here to moan and groan over our brother Zaqawi, Who dun got shot by a UAV in Southwest Falluja

(Spoken)
Then there'd be weepin' and wailin'... from some of those insurgents . Then he'd say:

(Chanting)
Jud was the most misunderstood man in this here territory. People used to think he was a mean ugly feller and they called him a beheading son of a gun

(Sung)
But the folks that really knowed him.

(Chant)
Knowed that beneath them two dirty shirts he always wore

(Sung)
He was really a beheading son of a gun


beheading son of a gun

Zaki hated all infidels

Zaki hated all infidels

(Spoken):
He loved the shiny long knives and the new AK47s. He loved the mice and the vermin in the Suinni triangle, and he treated
the rats like equals, which was right. And he loved little goats. He loved everybody and in Iraq who bowed low to him!
Only he never let on, so nobody ever knowed it.

(Sung)
Pore Zaq is Daid
Zaqawi is daid
His friends'll weep and wail for miles around

Miles Around!

The daisies in the dell
will give out a different smell
Because Pore Zaq is underneath the ground.

Pore Zaq is daid
A Candle lights his haid
He's layin' in a cawfin made of wood

Wood...

And folks are feelin' sad
Cause they useter treat him bad
But now they know their Zaqi’s gone for good

Good..

Pore Zaq is Daid a candle lights his haid!

He's lookin' oh so purty and so nice
He looks like he's asleep,
It's a shame that he won't keep
But it's summer and we're running out of ice.

Pore Zaq, Pore Zaq

#3  " 'E's not pinin'! 'E's passed on! This Zarqawi is no more! He has ceased to be! 'E's expired and gone to meet 'is maker! 'E's a stiff! Bereft of life, 'e rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed 'im to the perch 'e'd be pushing up the daisies! 'Is metabolic processes are now 'istory! 'E's off the twig! 'E's kicked the bucket, 'e's shuffled off 'is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisibile!! THIS IS AN EX-ZARQAWI!! "

Well, someone had to bring out the Monty Python reference! And don't tell me others weren't tempted...
