The Zarqawi Legacy
June 8, 2006
Human Events Online has a write-up about the final atrocities of Abu Musab al Zarqawi, the latest big-name terrorist to meet his maker at the hands of the United States Armed Forces.
If you are looking for the legacy of Abu Musab al Zarqawi, do not look in the concrete rubble of so-called safe house in Baqubah that became his final resting place. Instead, look less than 10 miles to the west, on the side of the road in the desert town of Hadid, for a pile of cardboard banana boxes.
Some of the heads still had their blindfolds on. Iraqi police are still attempting to identify the murdered men.
Critics of President Bush and U.S. foreign policy say that the world isn’t a safer place with Zarqawi dead. I say, “It may not be, but it sure is a better place.”
