Why should we give a shit, one way or the other?!?

BAGHDAD, Iraq -- An Iraqi man who was one of the first people on the scene after an airstrike that led to the death of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi told Associated Press Television News that he saw American troops beating a man who had a beard like the al-Qaida leader.
The witness said he saw the man lying on the ground, badly wounded but still alive. He said U.S. troops arriving on the scene wrapped the man's head in an Arab robe and began beating him. His account cannot be independently verified.

The spokesman for the U.S.-led forces in Iraq says troops tried to provide medical attention after they saw that al-Zarqawi was alive but he recognized them as American troops and tried to get away.

Major Gen. William Caldwell said the troops "re-secured" al-Zarqawi back onto the stretcher before he died almost immediately.

What kills me is the fact that the liberal "drive by media" would trot out an unsubstantiated claim like this . . . in my humble opinion, this asshole sould have been sent to hell by whatever means necessary . . . two 500 pound bombs will mess up a person's health records beyond repair . . . any civilian who doesn't realize that fact is an asshole too!
