Just to add to the "where is Al Zarqawi" muddle...

LONDON (Reuters) - Al Qaeda's leader in Iraq Abu Musab al-Zarqawi had fled the country after being seriously injured in a U.S. missile attack, The Sunday Times newspaper reported, quoting a senior commander of the Iraqi insurgency.

Al-Zarqawi has shrapnel lodged in his chest and may have been moved to Iran, The Sunday Times newspaper reported, adding his supporters may try to move him on to another country for an operation.

The paper quoted an unnamed insurgency commander as saying the Jordanian-born militant was wounded three weeks ago when a U.S. missile hit his convoy near the northwestern Iraqi city of al Qaim.

"Shrapnel went in between the right shoulder and his chest, ripped it open and is still stuck there," the commander said, adding a second piece of shrapnel penetrated Zarqawi's chest but exited from his back.

I realize a lot of what Iran has done has been political posturing, but man if this report is true that's pretty stupid that they'd let him come there.

Interesting story anyway..

That's something out of a Rambo movie. Those are some badass injuries.

Not to mention that Zarqawi has over-time managed to grow another leg, outrun a U.S. patrol that pulled over his taxi, and confiscated his laptop (that'll teach him not to back up his data on a USB key) and always stay a step ahead of his enemies. It's not Zarqawi making a hero out of himself in Iraq, its the DOD.

Dan, it's all a conspiracy to keep you confused and in business on this forum...

More like a way to give an Al-Queda face to a war that is getting harder to justify as a intergral part of the war of terra'.

He's probably already been caught, they're just preparing a spider hole for some posed pictures.

Actually knowing AQ's past, they're probing internal communications for where their leaks are.

We've been nabbing a lot of Lts of his lately, and getting better and better intelligence on him (we've come close more and more often in the last several weeks), he's probably trying to figure out who is still loyal and who is talking.

Zarqawi must be the most elusive cat in Baghdad. I mean this guy is the Pablo Escobar of Iraq. He's everywhere, and he's nowhere...

Clearly, someone is propagandanizing Al-Zarqawi. For all we know it could be both sides.
