Daveed Gartenstein-Ross & Adam White: Passing on Zarqawi - Behind the administration's decision not to kill Abu Musab al-Zarqawi in 2002. - '...Just as the failure to kill Zarqawi in 2002 provides context for his 2006 death, so too does the international political situation in the lead-up to the Iraq war provide context for the administration's decision not to strike. And it should be kept in mind that the current enthusiasm of administration critics for airstrikes on foreign soil will provide context for any future criticism of the practice.'
