Zarqawi reported killed in Baghdad air raid.

Its a bit of a joke really...Z is an out and out terrorist YET the BBC refuses to call him one!

AND...just who's freedom is this terrorist fighting for? Abdallah Average on the street? Well you would think so if all you ever read was the BBC...but then again you think he would stop lopping peoples heads off if he was a true freedom fighter

The Iraqi prime minister doesn't seem to have any such problems.

'The prime minister urged Iraqis to join political dialogue rather than violence, vowing to "carry on on the same path... by killing all the terrorists".'

I read the news today oh boy ..

You would have thought by now it would be better to wait a tad to see just how true this story is.

No doubt in a days time reports will counter this claim , then by Saturday it will turn out that an orphanage was bombed instead then claims and counter claims to say it was Z but no DNA then claims that Z was a CIA asset whose role was to ensure that Iraq would fragment etc

I seem to recall reading two years ago he was killed.

Speaking of which who even knows his name ..I bet you dont without looking up the Internet.

Iraq over the past year has had more PMs than Italy has had post war, all democratically elected by the people and for the people.

Maybe this one will last longer than a month.

Alf, whatever happened about that Iranian Euro oil bourse that was going to bring about the end of the world a couple of months ago?

In case you are dissapointed Tex rest assured that they are still working on it.

Altough since reports issued by Russia that accused Ukraine of selling a vast amount of nuclear wepaons to Iran several years ago, maybe they are thinking twice, who knows.

I didnt say it would be the end of the World I said it was an excellent time to buy into Oil , and those who did at the time would have done very well due to the tensions over the Iran crises which drove Oil to 70 bucks a pop, which could still all blow up anytime then the price could soar to 100 bucks or more.

The Good Ol' USA still has a trillion barrels in Colorado, alledgedly...

To be honest I'd be hard pushed to name most countries PMs. Even the French one I get mixed up.

For the record:

Italy (post war): 37
Iraq: 3

So you don't subscribe to the conspiracy theory that says it was all a big conspiracy theory and there were never any such plans?

Trouble is that its in Yellowstone, which is protected. Even then, if they get mining rights, it is very costly to extract. You have to pump in water and gas - you end up requiring almost as much energy to extract it as the oil will give you.
