Alzarqawi death -

The question here is what does the death of Al Zarqawi mean to the occupation in Iraq? And why did the U.S. and UK leaders hailed his death as victory?
Its been a long time since news agencies carried good news involving the occupation achievements in Iraq. And to portray Al Zarqawi as a big enemy of justice, a dangerous criminal who endangered the occupations honourable mission in Iraq, or the "most vicious persecutor" of the insurgency, as the British Prime Minister Tony Blair put it, made a hero out of the U.S. and its war allies.
Blair and Bush needed to come up with a false story to find a way out of the bleak situation theyre facing in Iraq.
The so-called insurgency groups in Iraq are being portrayed as either supporters of the former regime led by Saddam Hussein, or members of Al Qaeda network.
But the fact of the matter is that the ongoing unrest in Iraq, or the "insurgency" if you wish to call it, is a low-level civil war, the editorial on Scotsman said.

Exaggerating significance of Al Zarqawi's death to fix the war image!

May be the alleged Al Qaeda leader in Iraq, Abu Musab Al Zarqawi, whom the U.S. military said it has killed in Iraq last week, had a link to some of the attacks that ripped through the region over the past few years, including Amman hotel bombing- This if we assumed that the man does exist- but the claim that hes the one behind what Western media refers to as insurgency, is far from true, stated a recent article on The Scotsman.

"Defeat Al Qaeda in Iraq and we will defeat them everywhere," said Mr. Blair, referring to Osama Bin Ladens Al Qaeda as if its the primary enemy in Iraq, and that it is a battle that can be won by normal Iraqis, which is utterly misleading.
Blair and Bush needed to come up with a false story to find a way out of the bleak situation theyre facing in Iraq.
The so-called insurgency groups in Iraq are being portrayed as either supporters of the former regime led by Saddam Hussein, or members of Al Qaeda network.
But the fact of the matter is that the ongoing unrest in Iraq, or the "insurgency" if you wish to call it, is a low-level civil war, the editorial on Scotsman said.
According to figures released last week by Baghdads morgue; 1,398 corpses were found in May alone, excluding those killed in explosions, or police and armed men.
These are victims of the civil war that Blair will not admit exists, the editorial added
Whats going in Iraq has nothing to do with Al Qaeda activities, again this if we assumed that the network still exists.
The turmoil that has plagued Iraq since the occupiers set foot in the country cant be traced to Al Qaeda- Al Qaeda agents are latecomers to the scene of ethnic tension, which started under Saddams rule, and was fuelled by the occupation and the political vacuum created later on.
The U.S. President and the British Prime Minister reuse to see the true situation in Iraq. Bush says that "civil war" is a term used by terrorists, and Blair argues that the fact that the countrys both Shia and Sunni communities are represented in the new government, means that there is no ethnic strife.
Acknowledging that theres a civil war in Iraq means that both governments, the U.S. and UK keep their troops for an extended period in Iraq, something both Blair and Bush cant afford, given the domestic anger both leaders are facing over their lying about reasons for launching Iraq war.
Thus, to prepare for an early exit from the war, both leaders must turn a blind eye to the sectarian tension their war fuelled and might drown the country into a bloody civil war.
Exaggerating the significance of Al Zarqawis death is meant to fix the tarnished image of the occupation in Iraq. News that the U.S.-led occupation has finally killed Al Zarqawi gave America and its allies a rare good news story from Iraq.
But in the country itself, the death of the alleged Al Qaeda leader wont make the slightest difference.
