al-Zawahri Declares Victory

From Reuters: Al Qaeda's number two man pours it on. $Q: "I congratulate the Muslims on Islam's victory in Iraq. I said more than a year ago that the Americans' departure from Iraq is only a matter of time," said the bespectacled Zawahri, who wore a white turban and sat next to an assault rifle. "But they are justifying their withdrawal by saying that the Iraqi forces have reached a satisfactory level." Had the President been truly focused on the murderers of 9/11 they would not be in a position to gloat today—they'd be dead or in jail, not enjoying themselves in a new homeland that Bush accidentally created for them at the cost of tens of thousands of lives.
