Foreign Correspondence

[otraque]

The writer simply goes too far.
To say Zarqawi is quite overplayed is true, but to say he doesn't exist gets into beyond the fringe hyperbole.
In my activist days on the left i always said our worst enemy are those that go to the SAME propandizing extreme as what we are fighting against.
He is ranting.
He is on our side, but he is over-the-edge.
It is fair to say that Zarqawi and his non-Iraqi jihadist constitute no more than 2% of the insurgency.
That Zarqawi does NOT exist, and foreign Jihadist don't exist arguments attack commonsense and does more harm than good.
What the hell is wrong with admitting to 2% and that Zarqawi does exist--which IN FACT he does.
Truth is far more powerful than hyperbolizers.
