The articles quote a web site that has traditioally been a favorite place for AlQ to post news, videos of attacks and general propaganda. None of the articles give the web address. The writers and analysts SPECULATE about a rift between Al Q in Iraq and the other groups within their particular Shura: Al Q being allied with four or five other religiously oriented groups ( nationalist groups aren't welcome in Al q's world ). The reason that Al Q gives on the web site was basically "turning the war over to the Iraqiis"
My two cents : Bad for us because it frees the f***er up to plan and coordinate ops in other places. Just like the Saudis didn't want Osama hanging around Saudi causing trouble ( and constantly plotting to take over the country) the Iraqi insurgents don't want Zarqawi around. He's the kind of revolutionary ideologue that intends to rule whatever country he ends up in with a "my way or the hiway" attitude. If you"re the leader of another insurgent group, you don't need too many men like Zarqawi around...you spend too much energy watching your back. Eventually you, or Zarqawi, loses.
The R**heads are, however, happy to have Zarqawi cause trouble all over the REST of the world. Look for him behind the counter at 7-11.
