is that picture of Zarqawi? i know they identified the body using DNA and prints or teeth. the picture is kind of strange--looks almost artistic, what with the frame--and then there's the almost watercolor effect, that looks like a cheap faux-impressionist thing done on Photoshop. i cannot help but look at this whole picture--marine, picture, and their relationship to one another--without horror. takes yhou places that even Kafka could not

Oh come on. No terrorist would make an attack in China. What do "U.S. interests" mean anyway? Malones?
