Blair says Zarqawi death “strike” against Al Qaeda

The British Prime Minister Tony Blair gave his reaction to the death of Zarqawi at his monthly media conference. “The death of al-Zarqawi is a strike against Al Qaeda in Iraq and therefore a strike against Al Qaeda everywhere, but we should have no illusions, we know that they will continue to kill.

“We know that there are many, many obstacles to overcome, but they also know that our determination to defeat them is total – their methods, their ideas, their extremism that seeks to infect the overwhelming desire of the overwhelming majority of people whatever their religion and whatever their nation to live together in peace and harmony.”
