Zarqawi's web
If you look at other web photos of Zarqawi, he looks VERY different. And the main photo of him dead on CNN.com looks wrong. His hairline and mustache look very fake, for instance, and they don't match photos of him from just a few months ago.

You people are unreal of course they cleaned the body up before they posted his picture all over the world. The only picture I saw was from the neck up so how do you people know what the rest of his body looked like? I know its hard to give Bush credit for anything but this was big victory for Bush and the war.

I thought so too, he sure looks very well in tact for bombs like they're describing,and what the video shows- massive damage, he should be blown to smithereens. Kind of hard to believe anything from this Administration...so we need to be magnifying glasses, so to speak, and see what the spin is.

Gotta admit, Benjamin has a point. They should have been lucky to find a finger for print identification after succumbing to 2 500lb bombs. Is this yet another media spectacle produced by Bush Productions?

I read that Donald Rumsfeld stated that no one person on the planet had more blood of innocent men, women and children on his hands than Zarqawi, or was that Bush he was referring to?

Will someone ask the question to how Zarqawi, in the picture of him being dead. He is not very damaged or cut up.......Yet he was hit with 2 bombs at 500lb a each. You see the destruction of reinforced concrete, and things blown everywhere. Watching the video it was massive. But,,,the picture of him you would think he would be blown a part.....how did they find scares and tattoo. This make know sense.
Hey, I am not a conspiracy person but this is unbelievable......can you explain.....please ask this question.
In a car accident people look lots worse than he does....IN A CAR ACCIDENT!!!! This is Bombs!!!
