Is it good news? In the short term its just going to intensify the civil infighting.

That asshole needed to be dead. He's recruited and directed a lot of foreign insurgents. I don't agree that the infighting will intensify. I think there will be a period of confusion. Having said that, this war is unwinnable and Bush is a complete asshole.

What's weird is that Rumsfeld came out immediately and said that there would be a replacement for Zarqawi. I would've thought they would ride some positive press for a while...

Like the saying goes, why write a new constitution for Iraq? Why not just give them ours? We're not using it, anyway.
