...TIME's questions were sent to al-Douri in May through intermediaries, and it's not exactly clear when his written answers, delivered in Arabic and authenticated by trusted sources, were composed - the fact that they refer in the present tense to the terrorist leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi suggest they were written before Zarqawi was killed in June. Al-Douri praises the Qaeda man's "courage, the strength of his faith, and the sacrifices of his fighters," but rebukes Zarqawi's advocacy of mass sectarian killing of innocents...
...Taking On Terrorists I am glad that the U.S. military forces finally killed terrorist leader Abu Mousab al-Zarqawi [June 19]. But does that solve the problem of terrorism? No. President Bush must begin to lead by example instead of by force. Democracy cannot be exported from a land where human rights are abused and ignored. Democracy is not a coalition of willing armed forces but a coalition of people. The world's problems today can be solved only by inculcating the maxim that the pen is mightier than the sword rather than the one that says power flows from...

Bush should rightly be enjoying an upturn in his political fortunes. I hope it's not wishful thinking to regard al-Zarqawi's death as a step toward peace and the welcome departure of coalition troops. Jeff Robertson Yellow Springs, Ohio...
...found the cover image of al-Zarqawi's face covered by a red X extremely eye-catching but also troubling, as it reminded me of the May 7, 1945, issue of TIME, which had an image of Adolf Hitler and an almost identical X. I wonder if it is legitimate to compare al-Zarqawi with Hitler, the latter having far exceeded al-Zarqawi in his crimes against humanity. But then, it is a blessing that al-Zarqawi has been stopped before such a comparison really could be legitimate. Simon Nicholas Cologne, Germany...
