Which Ding-Dong Is Dead?

Reports are that Al-Zarqawi has been killed. Is following a strategy that Israel has used for 30+ years (and, in my opinion, completely unsuccessfully) really a wise idea? Is anyone so deluded to think this will make a difference in Iraq? And by "difference" I mean less violence and vitriol toward the U.S.

I shed no tears for Zarqawi. He's like the guy that jumped into the lion's den then other day...except, in this case, the lions came to him. He had a choice: play ball or likely end up a martyr. He chose the funny spelled one.
