Al-Zaraqawi may be spending Thanskgiving all over Mosul

There are reports that the terrorist leader was among the eight leaders cornered in a house who blew themselves up.

Never count a man dead until you've seen the body, and even then remember you may be mistaken. I suspect the present data isn't much more than (a) we were tipped he'd be there and (b) eight people there blew themselves up.

On the other hand, word that eight of the leadership disassembled themselves is cheering. One top dog can be replaced a lot easier than eight of the leadership.
