David Ignatius has a sensible piece in the WaPo, hitting the key point that Zarqawi's main aim in Iraq was a murderous campaign against any insurgents who had thoughts of co-operating with the new government. Now that this Sunni Islamo-fascist is gone, more insurgent groups may get on board the government.
Oh, and Ignatius noted the following:
Zarqawi's most devastating attack on this Western project may have been the August 2003 bombing of the U.N. headquarters in Baghdad. As intended, it frightened the United Nations away.
Maybe now the craven cowards in the discredited UN will make one last attempt at relevance in the real world by getting back into Iraq. After Chiraq and Putin got Oil-For-Food kickbacks through UN auspices and then opposed the US initiative in 2003, they should redeem themselves by reinserting their agencies where they are needed most.
But if Darfur is a clue, I wouldn't bet on these Turtle Bay turncoats doing anything except spewing hatred for US news agencies who believe the UN is a bureaucratic asylum. Like their cowardly spewmeister Malloch Brown, whose pink tie revealed his orientation as he whinged to Democrats how bad Republicans treat the incompetent nincompoops in Turtle Bay.
