Zarqawi--US created boogie man
-
Zarqawi--US Created Boogie Man. "Abu Musab al-Zarqawi was a little-known Jordanian petty criminal until denounced by [US Secretary of State Colin Powell before the UN Security Council] in 2003 as an insurgent leader of great importance. His [US created] status enabled him to recruit men and raise money to wage a cruel war, mostly against Iraqi civilians." Link. In truth, there was no evidence that Zarqawi even belonged to al Qaeda in 2003. This guy was an uneducated nobody--not a religious leader, not of high birth (see bin Laden)--who possessed zero ability to built a large, well funded terrorist organization. By picking Zarqawi out of the crowd of Islamist thugs (calling themselves holy warriors) who rushed to Iraq in the wake of the US invasion, we empowered him to commit his atrocities against unarmed civilians. 6-11-2006.
