| Text of a document discovered in terror leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi's hideout. The document was provided in English by Iraqi National Security Adviser Mouwafak al-Rubaie: ___ The situation and conditions of the resistance in Iraq have reached a point that requires a review of the events and of the work being done inside Iraq. Such a study is needed in order to show the best means to accomplish the required goals, especially that the forces of the National Guard have succeeded in forming an enormous shield protecting the American forces and have reduced substantially the losses that were solely suffered by the American forces. This is in addition to the role, played by the Shi'a (the leadership and masses) by supporting the occupation, working to defeat the resistance and by informing on its elements. As an overall picture, time has been an element in affecting negatively the forces of the occupying countries, due to the losses they sustain economically in human lives, which are increasing with time. However, here in Iraq, time is now beginning to be of service to the American forces and harmful to the resistance for the following reasons: |

| #7 I wonder about this document. That's pretty deep thinking for someone who supposedly was a school dropout and more concerned with killing than with strategy. I wonder if the "Spiritual advisor" wasn't the strategist behind Zark-boy, and Zark was just the implementer. It doesn't matter - we got them both with one shot - a nice 'two-fer'. |

| #6 1. To improve the image of the resistance in society, increase the number of supporters who are refusing occupation and show the clash of interest between society and the occupation and its collaborators. To use the media for spreading an effective and creative image of the resistance. So the first course of action for al Qaeda is to co-opt the press. AQ has no doubt which side the "news" media is on. The US has Iraqi collaborators. Al Qaeda has the media as collaborators. |

| #5 2. well of course ahmadinajads still a nutjob, but thats not inconsistent with Zarqo wanting a US IRan war, and possibly trying to make us think hes getting from Iran. Now could this be fake? Yeah, but by whom? Maybe the Shiites in the Iraqi govt, who want us to think we're beating Zarq, but DONT want us to go to war with Iran? Mebbe. Im eager for Darlings take. |

| #3 either after the fall of Iran or during the battles. Suprise, suprise, me and Al Queda agree on the future of the Iranian (mini) Empire. |

| #2 The last section is weird. Weird enough to be suspect to me. Innocent Iran who has no desire for nukes, it's a Zak plot. It's Zak who makes Mamhoud Imadinnerjacket spout threats of death agains Israel. Iran just pretty perfect innocent by these claims. Everything Iran pursues and does isn't real - it a Zak plot. Too pat. Too different in thought and expression from the sections above. Weird? |
