That Was Kerry and Fonda; This Is Now.
The capture by Coalition forces of a summer 2005 letter from al Qaeda's second-in-command al Zawahiri to al Qaeda in Iraq butcher Zarqawi exposes a number of faultines in the Islamofascists' matrix, including, significantly, Zawahiri's wide-eyed cautioning of Zarqawi's unbridled bloodlust as bad PR. The message expresses concern that Zarqawi's serial and manifold atrocities, which the old man opines do not serve AQ's propaganda aims in the Muslim world, might be just a little over the top - even for Zawahiri, which means even for Osama bin Laden, who unleashed Zarqawi and all the other dogs of Islamist war.
Zawahiri bemoans the fact that most of his brethren now occupy space somewhere in a Prison For Allah's Dummies and, with a nod to Air America, baldly asks for money that he clearly does not deserve.
Zawahiri then reminds Zarqawi of Al Qaeda's battle plan for establishing a new caliphate, which relies on the US cutting and running from Iraq. It has since gone public all over the Entire World and served as grist for George W. Bush's latest and perhaps greatest speech.
How telling of the fruits of the antiwar left's efforts over the years that Zawahiri believes the Vietnam template applies to his fantasies of victory. Sorry, Z- that was John Kerry and Jane Fonda.
This is now.

You may want to check this out.
Though you may not be a fan, I'm sure you welcome the chance to be absolutely sure of your information.
Otherwise you could be seen as just another Dan Rather.

Juan Cole offers no material evidence whatsoever to support his claim. Dan Rather went down because he was proved a phony, not because someone simply called him one. If the Z2Z letter is a fake, prove it or STFU. As I recall, that was the standard demanded by Rather and CBS of their critics. Assiduous, ethical and informed blogs ponied up the proof, and that's what killed poor Dan Rather: facts. Facts, and the added burden that he was an anti-Bush phony.
Interesting to note that on the left Dan Rather has gone from being the patron saint of "speaking truth to power" to becoming the subject of the latest cautionary admonishment about biased reporting in the MSM. In the blink of an eye. This is a direct reflection of Dan Rather's usefulness to the left, which lesson should always be remembered: these people lie when it suits them. It does not matter why; they lie.
Meanwhile, I'll hold to the standards demanded by the left with regard to the Rather memos: the Z2Z letter is real until proven otherwise.
