	Abu Musab al-Zarqawi
		Zarqawi hails from the town of Zarqa, Jordan, from whence his best-known alias is derived.
		One of the people Zarqawi is known to have met in the training camps was a young Pakistani explosives expert named Abdel Basit, who would later be known to the world as Ramzi Yousef.
		Zarqawi's original plan was to overthrow the government of Jordan, but when he was smoked out of the country and sentenced to death in absentia, he went traveling, first to Europe then back to the Middle East and South Asia.

	Matthew Levitt on Abu Musab al-Zarqawi on National Review Online
		Zarqawi's activities on behalf of al Qaeda span the globe, from Afghanistan to Great Britain, with equally diverse links to other terrorist groups, from Ansar al-Islam in Iraq and Hezbollah in Lebanon to al-Tawhid in Germany and Beyyiat el-Imam in Turkey.
		Zarqawi heads Jund al-Shams, an Islamic extremist group and al Qaeda affiliate which operated primarily in Syria and Jordan, but is now believed to have moved to the Ansar al-Islam enclave in the Kurdish region of northern Iraq where he helped establish a new poison and explosive training camp.
		Zarqawi is now believed to have returned to the Ansar al-Islam camp in northern Iraq run by his Jund al-Shams lieutenants.

	A suspect emerges as key link in terror chain \| csmonitor.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Zarqawi, a one-legged Jordanian Bedouin currently thought to be hiding in Iran, has emerged as a central suspect in one Al Qaeda-related plot after another, investigators say, from allegedly smuggling suicide bombers into Iraq to orchestrating the recent car bomb blasts in Turkey and planning chemical attacks in Europe.
		Zarqawi is thought to have spent time in and around an Ansar-al Islam camp in the Kurdish region of northern Iraq before last year's US-led invasion of Iraq, and then to have fled across the border to western Iran, where he is believed to be living now.
		Zarqawi's apparent role as a nexus between several such networks is of particular concern because of his alleged expertise in chemical and biological agents: Men whom authorities link to him were arrested a year ago in London and Paris in possession of small amounts of ricin, a deadly poison for which there is no antidote.

		Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, leader of the organisation responsible for the beheadings in Iraq, is regularly portrayed by the US government as a terrorist mastermind, responsible for activity in places as widespread as Hamburg, Chechnya, Madrid and Mombasa.
		Zarqawi's basic education and the writings attributed to him suggest he is not a strategist comparable to Zawahiri, the Egyptian urban terrorist who masterminds al-Qaida campaigns.
		He said Zarqawi had no such compunction when it came to hostages, and that he claimed the killing of hostages was permitted by sharia [Islamic law] because they were not hostages but spies.

		Zarqawi is a shadowy figure, but most people agree that he is a Jordanian-born Palestinian who fought in Afghanistan, first against the Soviets and then with al-Qaida against the US.
		An intercepted letter from Zarqawi to the al-Qaida leadership released by the US in March gave a motive for these bombings: he said he could not drive US forces from Iraq, but a sectarian war would prevent Washington leaving a stable government.
		Zarqawi follows al-Qaida-style ideology and planning in his attacks but is not thought to be part of Bin Laden's inner circle.

		It's a very educated guess.” Perhaps the strongest argument in favor of Zarqawi as culprit was a leaflet signed by an unprecedented 12 underground opposition groups, insisting that he had been killed already by American bombs; the leaflets were distributed after the Karbala and Baghdad blasts in the Sunni triangle towns of Falluja and Ramadi.
		The 39-year-old Jordanian, Mohammed Abu Dhees, behaved in a "conspiratorial manner" but knew he was being shadowed, according to a senior investigator in Germany's BKA federal crime office who led the case.
		Abu Musab Zarqawi's remarks should be taken seriously, because he and people like him would destroy all of humanity if they acquired nuclear or biological weapons.

		Zarqawi's deputy Moammar Ahmad Yussef, evidently oversaw the killing from Syria but was subsequently detained either in Syria or Turkey, thereby providing the US with critical information regarding al-Qaeda's ties with the Iraqi regime.

		Zarqawi, who has been blamed for the recent beheadings of foreigners in Iraq, remains something of a mystery.
		Zarqawi almost certainly is playing some role in Iraq, despite rebel assertions that he died back in March.
		But even though the United States suggests that Zarqawi is behind most large-scale attacks in Iraq, it's suffering from a dearth of intelligence about him.

		With Tuesday’s attacks, Abu Musab Zarqawi, a Jordanian militant with ties to al-Qaida, is now blamed for more than 700 terrorist killings in Iraq.
		The Pentagon quickly drafted plans to attack the camp with cruise missiles and airstrikes and sent it to the White House, where, according to U.S. government sources, the plan was debated to death in the National Security Council.
		Military officials insist their case for attacking Zarqawi’s operation was airtight, but the administration feared destroying the terrorist camp in Iraq could undercut its case for war against Saddam.

	Holy Zarqawi - Why Bush let Iraq's top terrorist walk. By Daniel Benjamin (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		These operatives have killed wholesale, with a long string of car and truck bombs to their credit, and they have killed retail, with the videotaped executions of hostages, which have become must-see TV in the Muslim world and are driving contractors and NGOs out of the country.
		What seems evident is that the administration viewed Zarqawi as a lower-tier concern, despite his well-known history of running an Afghan terrorist training camp and conducting terrorist operations in Europe.
		This, like the case of the pulled punch against Zarqawi, suggests that the Bush team continued to believe that states were the key threats in the post-9/11 world; terrorist groups could easily be swept up after the rogue nations had been dispatched.
