We have killed a major terrorist leader in Iraq. We will continue to kill major terrorist leaders in Iraq. Five years from now we will likelly be killing major terrorist leaders in Iraq. Perhaps in ten years we can turn over the killing of major terrorist leaders in Iraq....to the Iraqis.
Or....we may be killing Iraqis who are Major Terrorist leaders in Iraq. This killing while an important boost politically....borders on irrelevant in the actual "War on Terrorism", and in fact may simply end up a recruiting tool for the bad guys. In my opinion we are fighting a war that cannot be won with Bombs, but hey....what do I know.
