al-Zarqawi is dead

Ding dong the witch is dead. The terrorist (or millitant as the BBC prefer) and leader of al-Qaeda in Iraq Abu Musab al-Zarqawi is dead, and has been confirmed dead by the Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri Maliki. He apparently died in an airstrike, and nobody has seen the body. So hopefully they really did get him and not a Brazilian electrician.

UPDATE

It really is him, H/T Samizdata
Zarqawi's identity was confirmed through his fingerprints.
