You can click link to read, I'll summarize.

1) Iraq Police were FIRST on the scene. Zarqawi was not TURNED OVER to Iraq Police, they were on site FIRST.
2) When the ambulance arrived, he was alive. He was placed on a strecher.
3) When US Military arrived, Zarqawi RECOGNIZED THEM and attempted to feebly flee, but was restrained due to his inability to move.
4) He then died a SHORT while later from his injuries from the bombing.

1. The Bush gang seems to have trouble

getting their story straight....
first the Iraqis show up first
then the Americans show up first
now it's back to Iraqis showing up first.

It's beginning to sound a lot like the
Saddam in a Hole charade

2. Let me see now

Injuries severe enough to kill him, yet he attempted to flee-OK:wtf: :shrug:

[Lerkfish]

8. that's the spin to set up the next revelation that we shot him,

attempting to flee. LOL

[radwriter0555]

3. He died with 2 legs on.. There must really be something to that stem cell

research eh? Regenerating limbs and all?

[uppityperson]

6. Has "2 legs" been reported or pictured?

or did he try to escape by hopping off with a crushed prosthesis again?

[MADem]

12. And all of his many "Bedouin tattoos" that decorated his arms and

hands, what of those??? Ya sure can't see them in that "jammed gun" video...and he even turns around so you see the smooth underside of his forearm!

[chill_wind]

4. "Attempted to flee?"

DANG that Rasputin was larger than life. Even in his death from a few tons of bricks....

[frylock]

5. how long before we hear it was really friendly fire that got him?

I'M ABU MUSAB FUCKIN' AL-ZARQAWI!!!!

9. I'm telling you here's what happened.

Zarqawi was walking down the street minding his own business when the Marines ran over him with a Humvee just for laughs. It was only later they found out who he was.

(I know it's a conspiracy theory but it has just the right ring of truthiness.)

10. RASPUTIN!!!

this is crazy. 2 500lbs. bombs and it still didn't kill him.

[rpgamerd00d]

11. Um....... yes it did. He is dead. From the bombs.

Did you miss part of the story?

[rniel]

13. yes

Maybe you didn't see this part

3) When US Military arrived, Zarqawi RECOGNIZED THEM and attempted to feebly flee, but was restrained due to his inability to move.

this is after the bombing.

[rpgamerd00d]

14. Ya, but he was already fatally injured and died within minutes.

[Raster]

15. ...and he was a bad man, and thank goodness we got him, and this is just

another FINE example on how well the war in Iraq is going as we search for those...er, what are we searching for this week? The rationale du jour? Oh, who cares about those legs anyway...:sarcasm:

[Bridget Burke]

16. But he still tried to flee....

Between the time of his fatal injuries & his actual death.

[rpgamerd00d]

17. Tried, but was unable to.

His injuries were too great.

[rniel]

18. Rasputin died too

And what's your point.
