Zarqawi Blooper Video

Stop The ACLU blogged Video thanks to Wizbang

In blooper-type footage from a Zarqawi video released last week, the al Qaeda in Iraq leader is seen fumbling with a machine gun…. Lynch said Zarqawi decided not to publicize the piece, which shows him decked out in New Balance sneakers. In it, he said, Zarqawi had trouble firing his automatic weapon and needed assistance from an aide, and his associates “do things like grab the hot barrel of the machine gun and burn themselves.”

Hot Air has the video via FOX, and reports we may be closing in on the idiot. Its quite hillarious, almost like a bad skit for Al Qaeda’s funniest home videos. I’m wondering if it should bother me that Zarqawi and I have similar taste in tennis shoes.

This is hysterical. He was wearing New Balance sneakers. Sorry, but fearsome warriors don’t wear sneakers. Maybe he didn’t get the memo from OBL. Watch Zarqawi fumble with his machine gun here. In case Zarqawi wasn’t aware, fearsome warriors don’t fumble with machine guns, either.

FOX has a 4 minute clip.

This is hillarious. First he is fired because he is giving insurgents a bad name, then he runs out of people stupid enough to blow themselves up, so he decides to form a force big enough to attack the Coalition and Iraqi forces, then he ends up losing 100 men, with 2 Iraqi losses, and none from the Coalition. Then he proves he does not even know how to shoot a gun. There is nothing left but to pretend to be French, and wave the white flag.
