Be Afraid Boys...Be Very Afraid

Peter Brookes writes that perhaps the most intriguing detail of Zarqawi’s demise is that the end “came from tips given by associates”:

This sort of “actionable intelligence” is critical in prosecuting an insurgency and, perhaps, most importantly shows significant discord in al Qaeda’s ranks.

This means that every al Qaeda, every Sunni, every foreign jihadist insurgent leader will be looking over his shoulder in the days to come instead of concentrating on planning and executing attacks, wondering if there is a traitor in his midst-and his downfall is just around the corner.

Good.
