Good news from Iraq

10 terrorists were killed overnight in a raid. Three of those terrorists had suicide belts.

In other news, U.S. forces were apparently very close to catching al zarqawi. Supposedly they had him at some checkpoint or something but did not have the orders to fire. I don't know, sounds weird to me, but that's what I've heard on the news. You'd think if that was the case, then they'd at least follow him and not let him get away.

This all seems like pretty good news right? Some are suggesting that this combined with the fact that zarqawi had to come out with a video showing his face last week means that the terrorists are in desperate times. Who knows, we've heard this sort of thing before, although american deaths are down drastically from six months ago (although they did go back up last month).
