"Last night was the first time that we have had definitive, unquestionable information as to exactly where [al-Zarqawi] was located, knowing that we could strike that target without causing collateral damage to other Iraqi civilians and personnel in the area," Caldwell said.

Seven people died, including a kid and a woman. So apparently only men are possibly Iraqi civilians ...

Don't expect too much of the death of Al-Zarqawi, though. The US/UK and Iraqi troops have almost no control of what goes on in the country. Zarqawi was more the "face" of terror, than the mastermind behind the terror, as even the US and UK estimate that Zarqawi's organisation had a marketshare in anti-US/UK/Iraqi government-actions of 9 or 10 percent.

I expect the slaughter going on for a lot longer than this. And when it stops, because George W. Bush decides so, it may well be because a Declaration of War on Iran...
