The Sunnis are starting to come around to the Iraqi government.

I hope he keeps it up, every stupid ass statement like this one brings us one day closer to all Iraqis saying fuck you to al Qaeda and tearing them to shreds themselves.

..and yet the Government is always just that close to actually catching Zarqawi...


April 25, 2005 — Jordanian rebel Abu Musab al-Zarqawi — Iraq's most wanted fugitive — recently eluded capture by American troops, but left behind a treasure trove of information, a senior military official told ABC News.

On Feb. 20, the alleged terror mastermind was heading to a secret meeting in Ramadi, just west of Fallujah, where he used to base his operations, the official said.

Task Force 626 — the covert American military unit charged with finding Zarqawi — had troops in place to grab the fugitive, and mobile vehicle checkpoints had been established around the city's perimeter. Another U.S. official said predator drones were also in flight, tracking movements in and around the city.

A source who had been inside the Zarqawi network alerted the task force to the meeting. Officials deem the source "extremely credible."

It's called evidence.

Doesn't sound like they're taking the covert part all that seriously...
