HOW'S THAT BOMBING WORKING OUT? (via mc):
Iraq Official: Top Zarqawi Aide Captured (SINAN SALAHEDDIN, Associated Press)
Interior Ministry forces captured a top aide to al-Qaida in Iraq leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi during a raid in western Iraq, a security official said Monday.
Whether it's offended religious sensibilities or fear of civil war, the mosque bombing seems to have triggered intelligence disclosures within the Sunni community. Posted by Orrin Judd at February 27, 2006 2:24 PM
If you've seen a picture of the domed building post-bombing, you will conclude that the terrorists are now beheading mosques.
BTW, do you think any korans were damaged or destroyed that day? Where were the street riots & demonstrations against this act of sacrilege? Hmmm? I guess it's only desecration when a non-Muslim acts this way. though logic would dictate just the opposite.

The reaction were far more serious than to the cartoons or the Qurans at Guantanamo.
